Capt, J. A. Peterkin, Fort Motto, 8. c.:
Dear Sir-You ask me to give you my
experience with your improved cotton seed,
and as have no interest in the matter ex-
cept tho good of the farmers. will give you
my experience. I planted acres OF your
seed this year and the cotton grew of rap
idly, stood the dry weather we'll and kept
green and bearing long after other cotton
near it had dried up and ceased producing:
I oinned out three bales, and 1000 pounds Of
seed cotton made 400 pounds Of lint. or 40
Der cent lint, while it took 1850 pounds OF
other cotton ginned same day ON same gin
to make 400 pounds lint. I know of many
other parties who also had turn out OF AZ
and even AZ per cent, while the Ozier SEED
only made 80 to 33 per cent.
As merchant, 1 shipped to Charleston
about 100 bales ofyour seed for two parties,
and without my factor knowing 1t. they ali
sold for the top of tho market. and most OF
them X cent over the market, as the staple
is very fine and beautiful. It's virtues are
that il grows we'll. stands drouth, bears
heavily. and makes q beautiful lint which
soils for top of the market. consider it

BRoon COIN.

Most people know In general way
chat btoom-corn hes advanced In price
! GOOD deal Of late, for they have
found brooms Surprisingly high at the
family grocery store. : was talking
with 90 intelligent manufacturer OF
proons the other dSy, who gave me
some rather astonishing Information on
this subject.
Broom-corn, which . year ago was
worth $50 per ton, IL now worth any
where from tl6O to $240, and Is better
than gold even at these figures, for
there Is no telling how much higher 1t
may 20. The seed, which is ordinary
worth q so bushel, is now worth SO
and can't be had In sufficient quaint
ties even at that price,. He told me
that 10 Central Illinois they want TO
put out 1900 acres Of broom corn this
spring, and a. yet have not been able
70 get seed enough for GOO acres. In
this city alone a bundled broom facto-
rles have shut down, owing 10 the
scarcity and high price of stock, and
throughout the country thousands Of
factories have either closed entirely
or are running 10 a very limited way.
The reason fer this state Of things is
that y few years ago everybody got to
raising brooln>corn. The market was
overlooked, prices went down so low
that there was no profit in it,, and a
general disgust for the stuff ensued.
Everybody quit as suddenly as every
body had begun, and last year only
about third OF a crop was raised, and
no attention was paid to saving the
seed. Old stocks were soon exhausted,
and, when the spectators became
aware of the scarcity Of the article,
broom-cor went up like u rocket
There is probably not seed enough in
the country to put out moro than
third of a crop this year, and the
prospect is that the familiar 25-cent
broom willremain at forty cents fol
some time to come, and that the far
mers who are lucky enough to have
seed on hand will make good thing
out of their broom-corn crop this year

applied. The material fused was pig
iron from Cranberry ores, North

excellent steel material. The plant
has capacity Of eieh'y-five tons per

has caused much qualification among

Geo. A. Peterkin, ESQ:
Dcar Sir take pleasure in testifying to
the value of the Peter>in Cotton Seed. l
obtained enough OF the seed last spring to
plant little less than quarter of an acre.
May OH the bayou land and received the
usual cultivation without any fertilizer. 1t
1t had no rain after about the first of July
until the crop was made. The yield OF
lint was at the rate of 62S pounds per acre.
and considering the waste from ginning so
small n quantity in an empty lint room,
1 estimate the yield of lint ut forty per
cent of lint cotton, and think so we'll of
the seed 1 now give you my order for
seventy-five bushels of see'l to plant this
