The best time to press hay being during
rainy weather when other farm work is
stopped. the cost of baling is merely nom
inal to those who hire their hands by the
month. as it gives these employment when
they would otherwise be idle. We re-
quest the attention ofthose in want of the
best and cheapest Hay Press in the mar
ket. to the following statements from gen
tlemen well kOwn in this community, as
to the operation Ofthe Press last year.
OOLTAWAH. Tenn. June I'd 1870.
MessrS. RICHARDSON, BURR q TERRY:
GENTS:-Using our hands l nave made
with the Utley Hay Press, purchased from
yOu. twenty bales in a winter day, aver
aging o two hundred and forty
pounds each. The heaviest bale weighed
Il little over three hundred pounds. and l
believe that with more care in bailing. my
bales would have averaged much heavier
than they did. | packed from forty-tive
to torty-eight bales in a car.
Respectfully NJ. A. CULLAR.

four hands. | nave made eighteen bales in
one day, averaging abOut two hundred
and fifty pounds, and that / have packed

GENTLEMEN:-The Utley Hay Press,
which Nnl 1t.a nyf1pt 1ripr nSp6 1aSt
winter and spring. and baled several crops
of hay. The press does not work VIII in
the rain, but under cover it docs splendid
work. After the hands became expert
enced in the press they could readily put
up fifteen bales i'm Il day, weighing 800
pounds per bale, and fifty-siX of these
bales can be packed in first class car. or
fOrty-eigEt in Il second class car. The
best crop | had balcd aVeraged3 01 pounds,
and some bales were made weighing rs
much as $50 pounds. In one of tile cars
that | loaded there were put over II 900
pounds and there can be that much put
in every first class ear.
Respectfully, E. VI. CAMPBELL
KNOX COUNTY, Tenn. June A. 1870.
MeS>rS. Richardson. Bur- d: Terry.
GENTLEMEN:-We consider the hay
baled by the Ctiey Hay Press of your
manufacture fully equal in all important
requisites to thar baled in the best nor
tllern presses. ana far superior in its sala-
bic qualities. viz: compactness, size M
proportion of bales to any that we pave
baled at the South. We have re-
'cc1ved Il number of consignments of hay
during the past season. and found that
baleu in your presses the most profitable
for shipping to the Southern market. In
a Visit to Macon Ga. we saw Il number of
bales sent from New England, which
were inferior in every respect except the
quality OF the hay to the bales made in the
jtlcy Press. We consider it the MY
pras> making merchantablc bales intro
dgccd into East Tennessee. and can there
fore fully recommend il to all who wish
TO ship their hay to distant markets.
