CeJicate of DR.. Hayes
The specifications OF DR.. Hare and J. Odam,
having been submitted 10 me, have found the
composition of matter on which they are founded
to be highly nitrogenous and ternlentabIe com.
pound, containing the essentials OF fertilizer OF
the highest character, and also the food Tor sus'
tanning crops 10 the time OF their maturing.
| regard this enterprise OF manufacturing
guano instead OF importing II, practical and
important undertaking, iayorably affecting the
interests OF our common country.
Respectfully. A. A. HAYES, NJ. ID.
Assayer to State OF Massachusetts,
Certificate Of Professor Booth.
Upon examining the composition OF the best
Peruvian GuanOs, can perceive no ground Tor
assuming it 10 be the best that can be made
On the contrary. there IS always present more
or less of superiluous matter sometimes IN
large quantity. The composition proposed by
Odam n Hare's Patent is, in my estimation, su.
perior to that OF the best Guanos, or to any 9TH
er artificial manure OF which | have heard, and
think myself the more entitled to give this
positive opinion, from the unlocked for results
OF the action OF sui phuric acid on animal matter
which obtained in experiment, but which were
anticipated by the Patent in question.
Respectfully Yours. JAMES e. BOOTH.
Certificate of Professor Fra-er.
At the request OF parties interested, have no
hesitation IN stating my opinion, that The mode
OF preparing an artificial manure, by acting
upon animal matters by suphurlc acid, as de-
tailed in DR.. Hares Patent, and mixing the re-
suIiinA substance with animal, charcoal and
phosphate of Lime, is correct in theory. and al.
though | have had no noopportunity OF testing the
manure thus formed practically, have no
doubt that manure formed by the mixture OF
these ingredients in proper proportions would
be found al least TO equal III It's effects the best
