made for a tobacco crop. Much of the1and
was fallowed last year. and having had the
advantages Of the SHOWS and freezes of the
past winter, is now in an excellent condi-
ton to yield handsome return for the hus-

that he wishes to plant half his corn crop by
the middle of this month.

CdrkSUiiLe, Ienn.-DEAR SIRs :
Pressure of public duties must be
my excuse for not replying to yours
of October 24th, asking for Il state
ment as to the effects on Tobacco of
an application of the Anchor Brand
Tobacco Fertilizer. l have the
pleasure TO say that its effects were
very marked, enough so to satisfy
me that its application will pay the
tobacco grower handsomely on all
lands not naturally very fertile.
Besides using it upon my general
crop, / caused red hillside to be
broken up that had not produced
the least sign of vegetation for
twenty years or more. After being
narrowed and laid off in rows three
and a half feet apart, caused about
two tablespOOnfuls of the fertilizer
to be dropped at the points of inter-

chopped up with the red clay and
well mixed with it, and a small hill
prepared for the reception of the
plants. About the 5th of July the
tobacco was planted, and although
the weather was dry and the ext
gencieS of the main crop prevented
proper attention to this small de-
tached piece, the plants grew off
rapidly, coming into top about the
18th of August. The tobacco grew
to good size, had a healthy growth,
and was housed about the lst of
October, making a good medium
tobacco of fine body. This was
very severe test for the fertilizer.
because ! Am certain the soil was
destitute of all plant food before the
of the fertilizer.
Since making this experiment, |
am convinced that by its use many

and railroads would find
it to their ultimate advantage to
transport it, and all other fertilizers,
free of charge. Very truly,

Nute,-The Office of a manure is
two-fnld: First, to make available
in the Suil what before was unavail-
able, and second, to add such kin
1red material as 1t may contain to
the store thus brought into play.
The alkaline portion of the soil
is slowly rendered avail
able under the influence of natural
causes, otherwise it would not give
cut so rapidly as it does under crop
ping. We are persuaded, therefore,
that the Anchor Brand not only
supplied needed material to Colonel
''red hillside" but ,ua-
'ocked In it plant food that other
wise would have remained inert
and Improbable.
