gradients for the needed phosphates and
heterogeneous matter SO necessary to
vegetation. At the late Centennial Ex-
hibition. the company received medal
for the most extensive and best exhibit
of commercial fertilizers. It's uniform
quality and high standard have won for
it an enviable reputation with farmers
and gardeners, and sales are constantly
on the increase. Shrewd farmers, who
have tried it, continue to order more
largely every year. finding that it pays !;
and the demand is on the increase.
England uses over 100000 tons Of fer.
tilizers yearly, and her soil has increas.
ed in productiveness more than 60 per
cent in consequence. The South, in
order to raise its cotton and tobacco
crops, has to use immense quantities of
fertilizers, the State of Georgia alone
consuming over 10000 tons year. One
planter in that State uses 800 tons of
the Bradley Company fertilizers every
year, and he will now have no other.
