October, 1867.
For full report, with analysis made by the Com
rnittee of the Institute. imposed of Dr. c. E. BUCK,
Professor j. G. PoHLE, and other prominent Chem
ists see pamphlets.
The distinguished feature Of this SUPER-PHOS-
PHATE from other similar Fertilizers is that all of
its ingredients are of ANIMAL origin, ami either
soluble tn avdter in condition to Qackiy become
soluble in the son and be taken up by the crop.
Contains no inert or mineral materials.
The proper relative proportion of the ingredients
| in MAPES' SUPER-PHOsPHATE to meet the re-
quirements Of the Cotton crop on Georgia and South
Carolina soils, Is fully proved by the experience OF
planters who testified that whererer applied, eren to
land noted for rsling cotton, the disease Is entirely
corrected, and healthy, vigorous growth produced.
On the same land Peruvian Guano and other fertil.
zers have failed to secure Il healthy growth.

$50 to 200 pounds 6ne Sea Island Cotton Lint to the

the first cotton picked was from the field on which
MAPES' PHOSPHATE was used, and 1t has made

THOMAS s. SALTER, Washington County, Ga, re-
porls that seventyve pounds per ncre on old land
Increased both the Cotton and the Corn three-fold
Considers 1t far more economical than Peruvian
Guano
Dr.. E. PARSONS. sanderv1lle. Washington County
"My observation is that MAPEs' sUPER-PHOs-
PHATE is q preventive against rust In Cotton.
Has about doubled the Cotton and trebled the Corn
Has done better than Peruvian Guano per pound"
]. W. ScorT Of same section, reports
ssThat his crop manurel with Peruvian Guano was
far more effected by drought and excessive rains
than where MAPES' 'SUPER-PHOSPHATE was used.
Shall use MAPES' in preference to any fertilizer he
has seen used by his neighbors."
W. Il. SPARES, Eatonton, Ca, reports:
"Un 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 :he unmanured would yiel
one."
B. B. HAMILTON, Ameiicus, CO., reports:
"Obtaiped the most satisfactory results from
dressing Considered to have had the best garden
this year in Southwestern Georgia"

and oats the results are very satlsloctory.
D. A. WARNocK. Beach Branch, S. c.. reports:
ION land which always rusted cotton, increased
the crop twofold eH fine cotton as he has seen this
year. Prevented rust. Four rows unmanured rust

E. B. LILIES, LlesviIle, Anson County, n. u, re-
ports:
GAS compared with Peruvian Guano and BauSn's
Super Phosphate, the result was decidedly in favor
of MAPES' SUPHEn-PHOSPHATE; attributed, be-
yond doubt to the fact that the ravages OF the rust
were not by marked difference, so severe where 1t
was applied as where the other manures were
