used it side by side with the Patapsco and other fertilizers, and 

 it far exceeds them. It has proven satisfactory to Dr. Nichols, 

 the Superintendent of the Insane Asylum, as he has this spring 

 purchased five tons of it. " SAMUEL A. SMITH,

We should expect just such a certificate from 

 an Insane Asylum.

" Dear Sir : I have used your fertilizer, called Bromophyte, 

 on three acres of cucumbers, on my farm at Mt. Yerrion, and 

 can say that I believe it to be a first-rate article. A few rows 

 I left without any fertilizer, on some I put Peruvian Guano, 

 and on some Patapsco Guano. Those without any fertilizers 

 are very poor, but where your fertilizer was used they are very 

 fine, and much better than the vines that were fertilized with 

 the Peruvian or Patapsco Guano. " DR. E. P. ROWLAND,

DODGE ON BROMOPHYTE. 



"WASHINGTON, D. C. 



" I have seen the effects and examined the character of the 

 fertilizer manufactured by Randall Fish, and am satisfied it is 

 among the best now offered to the public. I have used it on 

 my strawberries and other plants, and find the effect upon their 

 growth superior to that of any other fertilizer I have ever 

 used. I shall want more. 



" It effects wonders on every kind of vegetable to which I have 

 applied it, making vegetation grow on barren soil. 



" Yery respectfully, 



"A. T. C. DODGE." 



This, we think, is a very good specimen of 

 " dodge." As it makes vegetation grow on bar- 

 ren soil, Bromophyte must contain the essence 

 of strawberries. Who will eat strawberries after 

 this?
