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 var Ofthe
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.

Messrs. RICHARDSON, BURR * TERRY:
GENTs:-Usiug four hands have made
with the Utiey Hay Press, purchased from
YOU. twenty bales in n winter day, aver
aging about two hundred and forty
pounds each. The heaviest bale weighed
a little over three hundred pounds. and /
believe that with more care in bailing, my
bales would have averaged much heavier
than they did. packed from forty-five
to forty-eight bales i'll a car.

CONFERENCE.-THE Utlcy Hay Press,
which YOU are manufacturing. / used last
winterandspring. and baled several crops
of hay. IN press does rot work VIII IN
the rain. but under cover it docs splendid
work. After the hands became expert
enccd in the press they could readily put
mp fifteen bales in a day. weighing 800
peands per bale, and tifty-Six of these
bales can be packed in "a first class car. or
foTty-eight in Il second class ear. The
best crop | bad baled averaged 301 pounds.
and some bales were made weighing as
mitch as 40 pounds. IN one of the cars
that I loaded there were put over 1900
pounds and there can be hat much put
in every first class car.

MeSSrS. Richardson. Burr d IerTv.
GENTLEMEN:-We consider the hav
baled by the Utley Hay Press of your
manufacture fnilY qua III all important
requisites TO that baled in the best nor
thern presses. and far superior in its sala-
bic qualities, viz: compactness. size and
proportion of bales to any that we have
seen haled at the South. We have re-
ceived a number of congignmeuts of hay
during the past season, and found that
baled in your presses the most profitable
for shipping to the Southern market. In
a visit to Macon Ga. we saw a 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
Utley Press. We consider it the only
press making ~merchantable bales intro
duced into East Tennessee, and can there
fore fully recommend it to all who wish
to ship their hay to distant markets.
