Dear Sirs: I used a Goodrich Digger last year and I found it perfectly satisfactory. It will save 50 in labor and it will save more peanuts than any other way I ever tried. I have 3 other diggers that will only plow them up once to the row and I thought they were the real diggers until I purchased the Goodrich J)igger. Now I do not think a farm is equipped to handle a crop of peanuts without a Goodrich Digger. As farmers have a very short period to dig their peanuts in and they want to leave them as long as possible to mature without' worrying about frost 1 say just buy a Goodrich Digger and worry RIGHT PRICES Misses -Mb vis, Marion and Margaret Stallings of Lamden ana air. ana . n .:;i-J I Mrs. J. u. isnappen visueu air. nu Mrs. C.

C. augll COOPERATIVE EXTENSION WORK IN AGRICULTURE AND HOME EC ONOMICS STATE OE NORTH CAROLINA Hertford, North Carolina. January 17th, I942- Ferguson Manufacturing Company, Suffolk, Virginia. Gentlemen : Perquimans County Peanut Growers purchased over thirty of your Peanut Digging Machines in 1941. Although many similar machines have been tried out in this County during the past twenty-five years, yours is the first one that has proven practical and efficient. Our peanut producers are well pleased with your machine. It proved to us a labor saver and time saver in harvesting the 1941 crop. It also saved a larger per cent of the peanuts than is generally saved by usual harvesting methods and equipment. Mr. Geo. VV. Nowell, Winfall, N. C, Star Route, was in my office to day, and stated that he would not take $500.00 for his machine unless he could get another. He also said that hogs would starve to death in a peanut field where the crop was harvested with one of your machines, which indicates the efficiency of your peanut digging machine. Our labor supply is being constantly reduced by the "Selective Service Act" and Industrial Defense Projects. The National Defense Program is calling for considerably larger acreage of peanuts in 1942 to supplement the supply of vegetable oils for National Defense. In view of the existing situa tion in this area, I sincerely hope you will be able to Fttpply our peanut grow ers' need for peanut digging machines in 1942, otherwise I doubt if our grow ers will be able to harvest the usual acreage of peanuts with the seriously re duced supply of farm labor. Very truly yours, L. W. ANDERSON, County Agent Perquimans County. Goodrich Diggers Save Time and Money about it no more. Yours truly, C. L. BAIN. SAVED HIM $o IN LABOR Wakefield, Va., Jan. 17, 1942. Gentlemen: In regard to the Goodrich Digger, I will say it is the only digger 1 know that will give a satisfactory job. I have been using them for 10 years and I feel like the farmers in this section would be at a loss to harvest peanuts withput them. The digger saves just about 50 of the labor and that is a big item now due to the few available men left to help with farm work. W. M. POND. For Sale by Place Your Order Now . .

These diggers are highly satis factory and in my. opinion cut labor costs about in half. The shaking apparatus is such that under most circumstances ail -dirt is shaken from the peanuts. Jt is my candid opinion that this digger is superior in every way to an other diggers that I have seen in operation. 1 Very truly yours, PAUL C. cox; nunc. h f K . : it. 1 - -4 U t 111 a ri ill m it 7 r, it' 'it I V J
