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 giveSthese~ employment when
they would otherwise be idle. We re-
| quest the attention ofthOsc in want Of the
best and cheapest Hay Press in the mar
ket, to the following statements from gen
tlemen we'll kown in this community, as
to the operation ofthe Press last year.

Messrs. RICHARDSON, BURR q TERRY:
GENTs:-Using four hands | have made
with the Utley Hay Press, purchased from
you, twenty bales in Il 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 III bailing, my
bales would have averaged much heavier
than they did. packed from forty-tive
to fOrty-eight bales iii II car.

CONFERENCE.-THE Utley Hay Press,
II -zzI -
winter and spring and baled several crops
Ofhay. The press does not work well in
the rain, but under cover it docs splendid
work. After the hands became expert
enced in the press they could readily put
mp fifteen bales jim a day. weighing 300
pounds per bale, and fifty-six of these
bales can be packed in Il first class car. or
forty-eight in IL second class car. The
best crop | had baled averaged 30l pounds,
and some bales were made weighing as
much as $50 pounds. In one of the cars
thai | loaded there were put over IL 900
pounds and there can be that much put
i'll every first class car.
Respectfully, f. VI. CAMPBELL
KNOX COUNTY, Tenn, june 4, 1870.
MeSsrS. Richardson, Burr DC Terry.
GENTLEMEN:-We consider the hay
baled by the Utley Hay Press of your
manufacture fully equal in 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 baled mt the South. We have re-
ceiyed a number of consignments 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.
Respectfully,
