Messrs. RICHARDSON, BURR & TERRY:
GENTS:-Using four hands | have made
with the Utley Hay Press. purchased from
you, twenty bales in IA 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 battling. my
bales would have averaged much heavier
than they did. | packed from forty-iive
to forty-eight bales in a car.

CONFERENCE.-THE Utley lay Press.
which you are manufacturing, | used last
winterandspring. and balcd several crops
of may. 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 in a day. weighing 300
pounds per bale, and filty->ix of these
bales can be packed in Il first class car, or
fOrty-eight in y second class ear. The
best crop | had baled averaged 301 pounds.
and some bales were made weighing as
much as $50 pounds. In one of the ears
that | loaded there were pHt over 1890
pounds and there can be that much put
III every first class car.
Respectfully, Z. u. CAMPBELL
KNOX COUNTY, Tenn, June A., 1870.
MeSSrs. Richardson. Burr d Ierru.
GENTLEMEN:-Ne consider the. hay
baled by the Utley Hay Press of your
manufacture fully equal in all important
itiht0iifS " biidb Ddlcu III tfc pest 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 at the South. We nave re-
ceived 4 number of consignments of hay
during the past season, and found that
baied in your presses the most profitable
for shipping to the Southern market. In
a visit to Macon Ga, we saw a unbe of
bales sent from New England, which
we're 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 understandable 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.
