Applied at the rate OF LOO TO 0 pound per acre on
11th april, on % acres blue clay land good deal
worn from being planted in cotton from 1867 to 1857
with only one years rest during that time, and not
withstanding the long continued cold and heavy rain
and gales during the spring and summer, about the
first Of September the crop ON this field Was estims-
180 to 200 pounds fine Sea Island Cotton Lint to the
Notwithstanding the ravnges Of the caterpillar
the first cotton picked was from the field on which
MAPES PHOSPHATE was used, and ii has made
about IS pounds to the acre, while no other man
ured land made over 45pounds. Has used MAPES'
PHOSPHATE on melons, potatoes and the garden
with satisfactory results.
THOMAS 8. sALTKR, Washington County, Ga, re-
ports that seventy-fve pounds per acre old land
Increased both the Cotton and the Corn three-fold
Considers 1t far more economical than Peruvian
Gu8no.
Dr. E. PARSONS, sandersviIle, Washington County
Ga, says:
"My observation Is that MAPEs' sUPER-PHOs-
PHATE is preventive against rust In Cotton.
Has about doubled the Cotton and trebled the Corn
Bas done better than Peruvian Guano per pound"
J. W. SooTT, of same section, reports:
''That his crop manured with Peruvian Guano was
far more effected by drought and excessive rains
than where MAPEs' SUPERPHOsPHATE was used.
Shall use MAPES' In preference to any fertilizer he
has seen used by his neighbors."
W. q. SPARKS, Eatonton, Ga, reports:
"On land about half covered with sedge, and
which had not been cultivated In two years, when
the manure was put on, badly manured, crop would
yield two pounds where the unmanured would Yell
one."
B. B. HAMILTON, Americas, Ga, reports:
"0btained the most satisfactory results from
MAPES' sUPER-PHOsPHATE, applying 1t as top
dressing Considered to have had the best garden
this year In Southwestern Georgia.
W. j. ANDERSON, Fort Valley, Ga, reports:
"MAPEs' sUPER-PHosPHATE has doubled the
crop of cotton In every reported, and some
port has more than doubled their crop. On wheat
and oats the results are very Satisfactory"
D. A. WARNoCK. Beach Branch, S. c., reports:
ION land which always rusted cotton, increased
the crop twofold; n5 cotton as he has seen this
year. Prevented rust Fopr rows unmanured rust
ed in August Everything the MAPES SUPER
PHOSPHATE was tried on did well Cotton stood
the cold weather In Spring; kept perfectly green,
and growed finely; has beat Peruvian Gudno In his
neighborhood. Believes It to be the BEST Manure
now in use"
E R. LILIES, Lilesville, Anson County, N. c., re-
ports:
"As compared with Peruvian Guano and Baugh's
Super Phosphate, the result was decidedly In favor
of MAPES' SUPHER-PHOSPHATE; attributed, be-
yond doubt to the fact that the ravsges Of the rust
were not BY marked difference, 80 severe where 1t
was applied as where the other msnures WERE"
JAMES MoMKKKN, Aston, 8. c., reports:
"Used ton Of Peruvian, and found the result but
one half as compared with those from MAPES'
SUPER.PHOSPHkTE- Soil mostly sandy, With clay
subsoi Marked difference In the size Of the bolls,
In favor Of MAPES' SUPERPHOSPHATE On Cot
ton plants the increased growth was about 100 per
cent"
JOHN B. HAm, Minis, 8. c.:
"Cotton was more vigorous and healthy, and ma.
tured at least tico s1eeks earlier where MAPES'
SUPRR-PHOSPHATE was used as compared with
other Fertilizers applied. MAPES' bUPER-PH0S-
PLATE produced 100 pounds per acre more Cotton
than Rhodes SuperPhosphate, and 90 pounds per
acre more than Soluble Pacific Guano. Same guam
ty OF each 160 pounds, used TO the acre, cultivated
In the same manner. MAPES' SUPERPHOSPHATE
more than doubled the yield of Cotton"
r. S. VENNHo, Christ Church Parrish 8. O., re-
ports:
zone application, 200 pounds MAPEs' SUPER
PHOSPHATE, per acre, made the cotton grow to the
height OF six feet where It grew only two feet the
year before. Considers MAPES SUPEK-PROS-
PHATE the best Fertilizer for SEA ISLAND COT
TON, and would safely recommend it to all plant
ers."
8. C. MEANS, spartsnburg s. c., writes:
USED 240 pounds per acre, applied May 18th. Can
safely say never saw more vigorous growth impart
ed to cotton from the use of any manure. Satisfied
the use Of MAPEs' 'SUPERPHOSPHATEpay pays hand
somelY,"
Rev. W. A. MERn1wErHER, Vale Crucis, near Co.
"MAPEs' SUPER-PHospHATE has given perfect
satisfaction, and that 1t permanently improves the
soil Has no hesitation In saying It is the special
manure for the turnip and Irish potato"
P. @. PENDLEToN, Yaldoston, Ga, writes:
"MAPES' SUPER-PHOSPHATE has exceeded my
most sanguine expectations. The effects OF its use
on Corn, Peas aud Garden Vegetables was most
marked. II 1t can be always kept up to the STAN
dard 1t must take the preference Of all fertilizers in
use."
NJ. B. HUNTER, Quitman, Ga, reports:
"Applied at the rate of $50 pounds per acre upon
every alternate four rows. The result truly as
toniShing. The manured rows yielded fully double
the neighboring alternate rows"
