Messrs r Croasdale & Co.:
1 used your Phosphate side by side with Goes and
could see even till the first of Augu decided ben
eft in favor OF yours-that is the stalks of corn were
much larger. used it freely grass IN the spring,
and late on some turnips The grass crop was re-
maIkably COED, and it remains to be seen what the
turnps will do. The season was too wet to properly
testit. Yours, F. E. HOWARD.

three -fourths of an of ground, and used one
barrel of Phosphate. harvested fifteen tons Of car
rots from the piece. have used Goes and the Cum
berland, but never received so much benefit from
them as from this. The carrots large size and
fine flavor. also used it on barley; and had it not
been blown down. should have had a good crop
As it was it was much sttcr than any other in the
neighborhood. used one barrel 10 the acre. l also

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
the foliage remained longer the trees than when
did not apply the Phosphate.
l used 1t on my garden Tor corn, potatoes, beans,
peas, beets cucumbers, &c. and the effect was high
ly satisfactory excepting the potatoes had row
of grape vines and used the Phosphate on them. 1
agreeably surprised with the result, did not
expect anything from it, as the land was so run
down. 1t did well for them, aud they showed a very
remarkable growth. can fully recommend this ar
ticle good fertilizer.
Yours, ISAAC MCCLELLAN.
used Croasdae's Super Phosphate the last
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 run out and had not been titled for many years.
1 regard it 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.
