Gents: I have been using the Vulcan Plow for ten years and in
that time have never broken a point. It sheds all soils better than
any plow I have ever used. Much easier on man and horse. I am
glad you have the agency as, I could not get the points and rather
than give it up for any other plow would send off for the points.
Yours very truly, G. W. MILLER, Route So. 6, Salisbury, N. C.
Messrs. C. Froneberger & Cp.. Salisbury, N. C.

pecting to get The Satisfactory results I have. Iam well pleased
with it in every respect and can iecommend it to anyone wanting the
best plow on the market. Very Kesp., J AM US M. KETUMEY.
Messrs. C. Froneberger & Co., Salisbury, N. C,
Gents: Last spring I bought one No. 11 Vulcap Plow from you
expecting to return same because I did not expect to get the result
from it I have. I am well pleased with same, it turns land I could
not turn with any other plow, much easier on the man and horse.
I have done three times the amount of plowing with one point than
with any other make of point I have ever used. Very respectfully,
O, C. SHOAF.
