Gents Two years ago last May. drilled in with
most of my Germ, 800 pounds of Bradeys SuperPhOs-
phate to the acre, sowing a few rows without the
Phosphate to try the experiment At the last hoeing
sowed on gassseed and stocked it down. being careful
not to make any hills but leaving the ground smOo tn
and even. Where used the Phosphate, the crop was
double that where it was not used. Last year could
easily trace the in the grass where the Phosphate
was used one-fourth mile away, and this year, the
third CROP think there double the hay along
those Phosphate rows, than other portions Of the
field where raised corn in 1875, and applied your.
Phosphate in the row. seeding to grass last fall after
the was harvested, shows plainly the Phosphaed
rows, in rank and heavy rowen. | satisfied
from my experiments that Bradley's Phosphate is
lasting mannro am not prepared to say which is the
best fertilizer in the market, there some kinds
have used, but of those have tested and which
have been used by farmers in this vicinity, Bradeys
Phosphate is in the front rank, A. No. /.

BRADLEY FERTILIZER CO.
Gents:-I have used Bradley's Phosphate for the
past six years; have also used Wilson's Phosphate
for the past three years. and last spring inform
ed that fertilizer had been brought into this
county and decided to make fair test of all three
kinds weighing the fertilizer the ground and the
crops they came Off used just the same moneys
worth Of fertilizer in each plot, and find that had
forynine bushels more Of potatoes to the under
the Bradley Phosphate than did either the Wilson
or the Guano plot; this at forty cents per bushel-
which received for my potatoes-gives me nineteen
dollars and sixty cents worth of potatoes more to the
acre where used Bradley's Phosphate than where 1
used either the Wilson or the Guano. used just ten
dollars worth to the acre of the three kinds This
think will show which kind of fertilizer to
the future, the ground was near alike as can be
found in this vicinity. A. +. STOCKWELL.

BRADLEY FERTn1zER Co.
Gents For eight years have used your Phosphate
with entire satisfaction. Two years ago was induced
to try Wilson's Phosphate. and the crops were such
your Phosphate potatoes and root crops with
the best of results, and convinced that your Phos
plate is far ahead of any fertilizer that has been
sold in this section. and shall use only Bradleys in
| the future Yours truly, A. g. FARMER.
The following letter from Mr. ingalls, of Lyndon to
the Union speaks well for Bradley's Phosphate:
ED. UNION Last year made careful test of the
different fertilizers used in this county. made five
experiments in the same field, each being on two rows
of potatoes containing seventy-ve hills. The following
| the result: No. l, spoonful of Wilson'S Phos
phate in each hill result IA bushels of market pota
toes and So pounds of small ones No. q with fer
tizer bushels Of good potatoes and 60 lbs Of small
ones. No. s, home made fertilizer bushels market
potatoes and 60 lbs of small No. T. ashes and
plaster IA bushels of good potatoes and 25 lbs Of
small Ones No. Bradley's Phosphate. LIZ bushels
good potatoes and So lbs of small ones. The five plots
were all MANFRED alike, planted all in day, and the
crop of each plot weighed carefully instead of guessing
at it. On the Wilson plot used is IA lbs. Of phos
phate while on the Bradley used Is IL lbs. This
convinces that Dradeys phosphate for potatoes is
| cheaper at $50 ton than Wilson's is at $50.
