Messrs. Wna. Csachton & Son-DEAR SIRs.-
Your ''Ammoniated Soluble Phosphate 1 re-
gard as the best manure have ever used l
dressed q lot of corn with it in the hill, putting
one bag on taco and one eighth acres by actual
| measurement, tyou will see that the allowance to
| each hill was very smal.l 1t has acted like a
charm. That lot of corn is the best in the neigh
borhood Of any planted al the same time
From what it has done for me I give it the
preference to any have ever tried
Yours respectfully, 5. A. GAYLEY

L applied your .'Ammoniated Super-Phos-
phate on wheat and oats-top- dressed the wheat.
The crops, where it was used, show a decided
improvement, and present at this day remark
ably fine appearance
am perfectly satisfied with its effects, and its
comparatively low price will induce me to use it
again next season. Yours truly,
ANNAPOLIS JUNCTION, Md, July 81, 1885,
l used the Ammoniated Super Phosphates,
| manufactured by you, with the greatest success
| on my wheat and vegetable garden.

ent appearances it will not be surpassed by any

1t gives me great pleasure to let you know that

last fall, very fne / used it entirely on corn

ever saw. 1t will, am certain, yield over twen-
ty bushels per acre, l applied it on oats and
corn in the spring using about 2oo pounds per
acre Oh each: (stif clay land) The oats will
double, I think, while the corn never saw any
| thing to equal it. l planted about 10th May,
using handful to two hills of corn, and after it
started it seemed incredible to it grow. 1t is

OF land by its side it is not over six inches

I had six acres of corn last year planted in
ground without manure. The season was very
wet and was unable to get corn in till the 10th
OF June When it came up it was thin and yell
low, and on the 9th of July it looked SO slckly
that would not even cut it for fodder. l was
persuaded to try the Redonda Guano and APP
piled an even handful to the hill, hoed it in and
raised the finest crop of corn | ever had. l am
satisfied owe my crop entirely to the Is Gq Rns:
