and the appliances are fully covered.
1t is the only Vacuum Cotton Picking
Machine. 1t is the only Cotton Pick
ing Machine to stand the test.
See what it did in the long "Floro-
dora" cotton at the test at Pine Bluff,
Ark, and this too when the machine
had just gone through wreck! Since
then it has been given other strenuous
tests, in the low small cotton of Ar
kansas and in Louisiana.
1t has stood every test. Different
styles and types of machines will be
built to meet every demand, all based
on the Thurman system principles,
ranging from $1,000 up in price, and to
do the work of IA to sc men.
In this advertisement are reproduced
number of newspaper comments, in
every case unbiased opinions of people
who have viewed the machine in it's
operation. In the prospectus, which
can be obtained by writing me, are re-
produced number Of letters, one from
the governor of leading cotton-grow-
ing state, and others from cotton grow
ers interested in cotton production.
There is no hesitancy in any of the
Endorsements about stating that the
Thurman Vacuum Cotton Picking Ma
chine is all that we have claimed for
it; successful Cotton Picking Ma
chine destined to revolutionize cotton
harvesting.
This is the last call for those who
wish to participate in the profits of
the manufacture and sale of these ma
chimes.
By next spring we expect to have
in operation the new plant with it's
army of laborers erected in some
Southern city. With the erection of
this plant and with capital enough to
operate it, there will be no more stock
for sale. The people will own it and
get the benefits which, as Prof. Bur-
kett says, must go into the millions.
1t will not be in a trust or combine.
With new plant and facilities for
manufacture the price of the machines
can be so reduced as to put them in
reach of all, solving the problem of la
Dor, reducing the cost of cotton pro-
eater exactly as harvesting ma
reduction.
rofits which must come from the manu-
must be made with the reservation.

FACTORY TEST.
MANY Planters Were at Barrow Place
Yesterday to See the Vacuum Ma
chine Pick Cotton in the Open Field.

A most successful and satisfactory
test was given yesterday morning on
the Barrow plantation by the opera
tors of the new Vacuum cotton pick
ing machine, which was brought here
from St. Louis to give the planters of
this section a practical demonstration
of the workings of the mechanical de-
vice.
Many interested persons, including
planters from all parts of the county,
were present at the exhibition. Only
one man was used to operate the big
machine, and only one side of it was
operated. The suction nozzle on the
machine picked cotton and picked it
clean, leaving the bare stalk standing
in the ground. The exhibition contin-
ued for more than two hours, and
much cotton was picked, although it
was not the intention of the operators
to make a record as to the amount of
cotton gathered from the field. Vari-
Gus tools were tried on the machine,
which took up much of the time. This
was done to give those present an idea
of the workings of the machine.
Another point in favor of the cotton
picker was the fact that it picked Flo
rodora cotton, which is regarded as the
hardest cotton to pick in Southern
fields. This cotton sticks in the bolls,
but it failed to stick there when the
cotton picking machine came in con-
tact with it. 1t was simply sucked out
of the bolls as clean as the human
hand could pick it. The exhibition was
very interesting and most satisfactory
to the cotton planters who doubted the
ability of the operators to pick cotton
by machinery.

Grading seed oats.

Agriculturist. a little paper issued at
the State Agricultural college. some
tests on grading seed oats in the sum
mer OF 1907. The oats We're graded
with a tanning mill into three grades
first, second and third. The first
grade was large. plump berries; the
second not so large and plump; while
the third were small. These three
grades were sown IN al adjoining strip
of land at the rate OF two bushels
per acre. The first grade averaged
es.5 bushels per acre. or 45 bushels
more than the other two grades.
