Applied at the rate Of 150 to 200 POUNDS per acre on
11th april, on 20 acres blue clay land, good deaI
worn from being planted IN cotton from 1857 to 1857,
with only years rest during that time and not
wthstanding the long continued cold and heavy rain,
and gales during tho spring and summer, about tho
first Of September the crop on this field was esima.
ted by some Of our best judges to promise yield Of
160 to 200 pounds fne Sea Island Cotton Lint 10 the
acre.. Notwithstanding the rayages Of the caterpillar,
the first cotton picked Was from the ield on which
MAPES' PHOSPHATE WAS ueed, and 1t has made
about 65 pounds to the acre. while no other man
ured land made over As pounds Has usei MAPEo'
PHOSPHATE Oh melons, potatoes and tho garden
with satisfactory results.
THOMAS ). SALrEn Washington County, Ga, re-
por, that seventyfve pounds per acre on OLD land
increased both the Cotton end the Corn threshold.
Considers 1t far more economical than Peruvian
Guano. -. y -
Dr. E. PARSONS. sandersvllle, Washington County
Ga, SAYS:
..My observation is that MApEs' sUPER-PEos-
PHATE is O prevti tive against rust in Cotton.
Has about doubled the C0ten and treDled the Corn.
has done better than Peruvian Guano Per pound"
j. w. SCOTT, OF same section, reports:
"rhat his crop manured with Pctuvian Guano was
fur more effected by drought o. d excessive rains
than where BlAPES' SUPEii-PHOSpHAI ALE was used.
shall Use MArES' in preference to any fertilizer he
has seen used by his neighDors-"
w. Il. SPARES tatcnton, Ga@, reports:
"Un land about half covered with eedge, and
which had not been cultivated in tu years, WHEN
the manure was put on, badly manured, Drop would
yield two pounds where the unmanurcd would yteli
one"
BIB. HAMILTON, Americus, Ga, reports:
''Obtsined the most satisfactory &c .uts from
MAPts' sCPER-pHo ,PHATE, applying it as o top
dressing. Considered to h I've had tho best garden
this year In 81 uthwcstern Geor sia."
W. ]. ANDERSON Fort Valley, Ga, reports:
"MAPEe' SUrER-pHOSPHArE hiss doubled the
port it has more than doubled their crop On wheat
and oats tho results nre vey satisfactory.
D. a. WARNoCK. Beach Granch, 5. c., reports:
ION land which always rusted cotton, increased
the crop twofold; c5 fine cotton os he has seen this
year. Prevented rust. Four rows unmanureo rust
ed In August Everything the MaPkS. SUPER
PHOSPHATE was tried on did well Cotton stood
the cold weather in Spring; kept perfectly green.
and growed finely; has bent PeTuuian Gudno in his
neighborhood. Believes It to be the BEST 4di,ure
now in use." D.
E. r. LILIES, Lilesville, Anson County, N. O., re.
ports:
Gas compared with Peruvian Guano and Baugh's
Super Phosphate, the result decidedly in favor
of MAPES' OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES; atti lbu,ed, be-
yond doubt to the fact that the ravaees Of the rust
were not, by marked difference, severe where it
was applied as where the other manures were"
JAMES MoMEEKN, Aston, s. o., reports: =
"Used Q ton Of Peruvian, and found the result but
one half as compared with those from MAPES'
SUPER-PH OSPHATE. Soil mostly sandy, with clay
in favor of MAPES' SUPER PHOSPHATE. On Cot
cent."
JOHN R. HAIR, Minis, S. c.:
"Cotton was more vigorous and healthy, and ma.
tured at least t,oo 1oeets earlier where MAPES'
SUPERcPHOSPHATE was used as compared with
other Fertilizers applied. MAPES' SUPER-pH0S-
PHATE produced leo pounds per acre moro Cotton
than Rhodes Super-Phosphate, and 90 pounds per
acre more than Soluble Pacific Guano. Same guam
tity OF EACH lao pounds, used 10 the acre. cultivated
in the same manner. MAPES' S'sCpER,P4oSPHATE
more than doubled the yield Of Cotton"
r. 3. vENNNa, Christ Church Parish. s. O., re-
potts:
"Ono application, 200 pounds lIAPEs' SUPER
PdOSPHA ATE, per acre, made the cotton grow TO the
height OF six feet whC-c 1t grew only two feet the
year. before. Considers MApEs' sUPEk.PHOs-
PHATE the best Feru,izet for SEA ISLAND COT
TON, and would safely recommend 1t 10 all plant
ers."
S. G. MEANS, spartanburg, S. c., writes:
Used 24O pounds per acre, applied May 18Th. Can
safely say never saw more vigorous gro tn impart
ed to cotton from the use OF any manure. Satisfied
the use of MAPEs' 'SUPER-PAOsPHATEp pays hand
someiy,
Rev. W. A. MERRrwETHEa, Vale Crucis, near Co.
"MAPEs' sUPER-PHosPHATE has given perfect
satisfaction, AMI that it permanently imprtves the
soil. Has no hesitation in saying it is the special
manure for the turnip and Irish potato.
P. G.. PENpLEToN, Valduston, Ga, writes:
"MAPES' SUPER-PHUoPHATE has exceeded my
most sanguine expectations The effects OF Its use
on Corn, Peas aud Garden Vegetables was most
marked. If it can be always kept up to tho stan
dard it must take the preference OF all fertilizers ID
use"
b. B. HUNTER, Quitman, Ga, reports:
"Applied ut the rate OF 150 pounds per acre upon
every alternate four The result aras truly a.
tonisting The nlanured rows yielded fully double
the neighboring alternate rows"
