Messs,s. p B. Hoge + Bro. Gentlemen--I
purchased of you last Fall ~ tons of YelFs SUI
Bone Phosphate, and drilled these fertilizers
with my wheat. also purchased t2) two tons Of
manipulated Guano. and sowed with my wheat.
have no hesitation in saying that Zelf g fertill-
Zers are vastly superior to any that 1 have ever
used or seen used by my neighb1rs They gave
me an excellent stand and yield OF wheat-the
straw clear ana nice, and the grains plump and
heavy. Where these fertilizers were sown,
have an excellent stand of grass on light, sandy,
chestnut soil. where l could never before get
grass to ''catch." | earnestly recommend them
to our farmers as No Fertilizers.

Fall purchased OF you several tons Zelis Fer
tlizers. | have also used almost every fertilizer
in the market, and have no hesitancy in saying
that it is far superior TO any have ever used ex-
cept Peruvian Guano, which believe is equal to
it. but no better. am highly pleased with it and
confidently recommend it to the farmers of this

Messrs P B. Hoge & Bro :-Gentemen--In
answer to your enquiries would say that l used
Zl fertilizers at the rate of l6O lbs to the acre.
and take pleasure in saying that it has acted en-
rirely to my atisfaction-indeed. it is the best
wheat crop ever raised on the same land. 1t is
my belief that it is a sure preventive of fly, as
where / used nothing but stable manure my
wheats considerably damaged; but where Zeli's
fertilizers are used there is no appearances of fly.
Very respectfully, ELI CARRIER.

Messrs p. B. Hoge d Bro Dear Sirs-I pur-
chased of you last Fall four or five tons Zei's
Fertilizers and sowed it with my wheat at the
rate of zoo lbs to the acre, and the yield of wheat
WAS fully twenty bushels to the acre. [ satis-
fed that on portion of the land would not
have made more than 10 bushels to the acre had
L not used these fertilizers. 1t has given me en-
tire satisfaction, and recommend it to the use of
all farmers, as believe it will pay them well.
