writes, December Is, 1879: AYour Star
Brand Complete Tobacco Manure acted finely
for me. The tobacco yellowed well on which

MIR. VIM. j. BRowN, of Cumberland county.
Va writes, January 6, 1890: 81 used some of
your Complete Tobacco Manure last sprinu
which gave perfect satisfaction Ibelieve it Is
all that you claim for it. My son, who is man
aging for me, and who noticed the tobacco
more closely than did, says that he noticed
that your fertilizer produced more leaf to the
size OF the stalk than where he used other fer
tlllzers. There is no doubt about its being a
good thing for tobacco. There is one THING
about fertilizers generally-they are too high
considering the price of tobacco. Can't Won
let them come lower? You would no doubt
sell more.
,NoTE-Cheap fertilizers means poor fer
tlllzers and failures, and disappointments and
loss to the planters. Our fertilizer is accord
ing to value, far the cheapest on the market.
Ii we lowered the standard and price we
would no doubt sell more for one or two wears.
but we would soon sell none at ALL We can't
anoTd 10 make anything but the best, and are
justly entitled to little profit. A. ga.
