The relative commercial value computed
on above analysis would be Ammonia $3.50,
Phosphoric Acid $54.12. If we were to COM
pute the Kiln Dried Guano, the value would
reach nearly $4,000.
These calculations of commercial value as
a matter of course are made on the suppose
ton that the Phosphoric Acid is all Rererted.

MY Dear Sir Il used last season one ton
