neighborhood. used one barrel to the acre. also

GORHAM, Maine, Dec. 90, 1867.
Mess K Croasdae a. Co:
used in the spring of 1867 a small quantity of
your Super-Phosphate upon my apple orchard of
young grOwth-just before a rain. The effect was
surprising; it changed the foliage at once, became
dark, and the growth of wood during the season
greatly exceeded that of previous years. found al
so the foliage remained longer the trees than when
did not apply the Phosphate.
used it on my garden for corn, potatoes beans
peas, beets, cucumbers, &C., and the effect was high
~ satisfactory excepting the potatoes. had row
VI grape vines, ana used the Phosphate on them. 1
was agreeably surprised with the result as did not
expect anything from 1t, the land was SO run
down. 1t did well for them, and they showed very
tice good fertilizer.
Yours, ISAAC MCCLELLAN.
used Croasdale's Super Phosphate the last sea-
son in planting my corn, potatoes and garden, and
was satisfied with the result. got good crops of
corn and potatoes on newly broken up land, which
was out and had not been titled for many years
regard it as an exceedingly valuable fertilizer and
so recommend it to all my friends. also know that
my neighbor, James Moody, Esq. used it on his
farm and nursery with the same results as myself.
