The proper relative proportion OF the ingredients
in MAPES' SIPER-PHOSPHATE to meet the re-

Considers it far more economical than Peruvian
Guano
Dr.. E. PAasoSs, Sandersvllle, Washington County
.tMy observation is that MAPEs' sUPER-PHOs-
PHATE is preventive against rust in Cotton
Has about doubled the Cotton and teoled the Corn.
Has done better than Peruvian Guano per pound"
j. W. ScorT of same section reports:
THAT his crop manured with Peruvian GuaIto was
far more effected by drought and excessive rains
than where MAPEs' s0pER-PHosPHATE was used.
Shall use MAPES' in preference to any fertilizer he
has seen used by his neighbors."
W. q. SPARKS, Eatcnton, 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 unmanuIed would yiel
one."
B. B. HAMILTON, Americus, Ga, reports:
obtained the most satisfactory results from
dressing Considered to have had the best garden
this year in Southwestern Georgia"
W. ]. ANDERSON, Fort Valley, Ga, reports:
"MAPES' ER-PHOSPHATE has doubled the
crop OF cotton in every case reported, and some re-
port it 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 fine cotton as he has seen this
year. Prevented rust -Four rows unDnanured rust

and growed finely; has beat Peruvian Guano in his
neighborhood. Believes It to be the BEST Manure
now in use"
E. R. LILIES, Llesvlle. Anson County, N. c., re-
ports:
GAS compared with Peruvian Guano and Baughs
Super Phosphate, the result decidedly iu favor
of MAPEo' sUPHER-PHOSPHATE; attributed, be
yond doubt, t. the fact that eravases Of the rust
were not by marked difference, 80 severe where II
was applied as where the other manures were"
JAMES McMEEKES, Aston, s. G., reports
"Used ton OF Peruvian, and found the result but

subsoi Marked difference in the size of the bols,
in favor Of MAPES' SUPER-PHOSPHATE. On Cot
ton plants the increased growth was about 100 per

JOHN r. HAIR Minis, S. c.:
"Cotton was more vigorous and healthy, and ma
tured at least tao tceeks earlier where MAPES'
sUPER-PHOSPHATE was used as compared with
other Fertilizers applied. MAPES sUPER-PHO:-

in the same manner. MAPES' CPERPHOSPHATE
more than doubled the yield of Cotton"
R. S. YENNNG, Christ Church Parish, g. c., re-
ports:
"One application, 200 pounds MAPES' SUPER
PHOSPH sTE, per acre, made the cotton grow to the
height of six feet where it grew only two feet the
year before. Considers MAPES' SUPER-PHOS.

TON, and would safely recommend it to all plant
ers.'
s. C. MEANS, Spartanburg, 8. c., writes:
USED 24O pounds per acre, applied May 18th. Can
eafey say never saw more vigorous growth impart
ed to cotton from the use of any manure. Satisfied
the use of MAPES' 'SUPER-PHOSPHATEp pays hand

Rev W. A. MERR1wETHER, Vale Crucis, near Co.
lumbia, S. c., reports:
"MAPEs' sUPEK-PHOSPHATE has given perfect
soil Has no hesitation In saying ii is the special
manure for the turnip and Irish potato"
P c. PENDIEToN, Valdoston, Ca, writes:
''MAPES SUPER-PHOSPHATE has exceeded my
most sanguine expectations. The effects of its use
on Corn, Peas and Garden Vegetables was most
marked. If it 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:
'Appned at the rate Of $50 pounds per acre upon
every alternate four rows. The result truly as
tonishing. The manured rows yielded fully double
