To the Farmers of Anderson and Oconee Counties: Believing by the uso of improved labor-saving machines the interest of farmers can best be advanced, I herewith take pleasure in recommending the Roden Improved Culti? vator, owned by Mr. \V. J. Ifix, as an imple? ment worthy of their consideration. I have seen it work", and have worked it myself, and I have no hesitation in saying that it surpasses anything of the kind I have ever used. As a cultivator of corn and cotton it cannot be equalled. It is just what the farmers need. One hand and horse can do the work of two hands and horses. Respectfully, RICHARD W. SIMPSON. Anderson, May 26, 1875. W. J. Hix, Esq.?Dear Sir: We have been using one of your Rodcn's Improved Cultiva? tors, and are well pleased with its performance. We itsed it in bedding land for cotton, making the prettiest beds wo ever saw for four feet rows in two rounds, or four furrows. Wo used two Twisters in bedding, and found the draft light for one horse. We also used it for cover? ing corn with two small Bull-Tongues or Go? phers, which done the work beautifully, leav? ing a pretty, narrow ridgo for the corn to como up on. Have not as yet used it in the cultiva? tion of crops, but are confident it will give en? tire satisfaction. Our Germans, who are noted for lino plowing, are highly pleased with it af? ter using it. Yours, with respect, B. F. CRAYTON & SONS. Mountain Creek, May 31,1S75. This is to certify that I have used Roden's Improved Cultivator, and am well pleased with its performance. In the first plowing of corn, I used the bull tonguo on fho front and the twister in the rear, and it did the work beau? tifully, excelling anything I have ever tried. In the second plowing, used two round shov? els, and was equally pleased. A medium sized mule drew tho plow with perfect case. I be? lieve that its facility in working cotton will prove equally satisfactory. W. G. WATSON. AGENTS. Anderson?Reed it Stephens, B. F. Crayton & Sous, and W. B. Watson it Co. Beltox?Georgo W. Cox.
