Mitchell, Lewis & Staver Co., Portland, Ore.
Gentlemen: I have just returned from starting the San
ders double disk plow at Junction. As you well know
I have always thought the Sanders disk plow all right but
I must confess I was somewhat surprised today when we
started It in land that had not been plowed for two years
and had been stocked heavy since, it was just as hard as a
road bed. The plow was a double disk, as the man had
four small horses and wanted to plow deep, he concluded
to take one disk off and use only three horses, which he
did. We put the plow down 8 Inches (actual measure
ment) and to say it did the work, is putting it mildly, and
to say that the farmer as well as Mr. Wilhelm, the agent,
were pleased is.putting it lightly, they were simply amaz
ed as well as myself.
1 enclose you order of Wilhelm & Sons for two more
double disk plows. In conclusion 1 will say the Sanders
plow is head and shoulders above anything I have seen.
Yours truly, (Signed) P E. THOMASON.
