AS OTHERS SEE IT: The University of Nebraska, Agricultural Experiment Station. Lincoln, June 29, 1904. The Barker Manufacturing Co., David City, Neb. Gentlemen:—After having your weeder aud mulcher in use at the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station for some weeks, and after having personally tested it, I am convinced that it is the best implement for weed- ing and cultivating vegetables and other similar plants that I have ever seen. We are using it to the practical exclusion of other implements in our garden and nursery work. Very truly yours R. A. Emerson, Horticulturist. Lincoln, Neb., May 33, 1904. I have examined the weeder and mulcher made by the Barker Mfg. Co., and am glad to say the machine is all right for the work tor which it is intended. L.'iM. RnssELL, Sec. State Hort. Soo. I consider the principle embodied in the weeder manufactured by the Barker Mfg. Co., as excellent and calculated to do better work as a pulver- izer and scarifier for garden soil than any tool I have yet seen manufactured. L. O. Williams, Foreman Hort. Dept. Neb. University.
