 are none the less interesting.

HAMPSHIRE, « August 2nd, 1920. 



I thank you for your letter. I am very pleased to be 

 able to tell you that I am delighted with the results 

 achieved by using your RECTISOIL. 



I sowed it on a 12-acre field which was infested with 

 wireworm, and I now have an excellent crop of oats. 

 There is no doubt that but for your RECTISOIL I should 

 not now have any oats worth reaping. 



I have recommended it to a large number of farmers in 

 my neighbourhood. I do hope your RECTISOIL will turn 

 out to be the success it deserves. Capt. H."' 



*Noie.—This xcas not Concentrated RECTISOIL as note made. 

 Concentrated RECTISOIL goes farther and is cheaper to use.

It is most important to Note that, used in con- 

 junction with this Heavy Dressing of Special 

 Compound Manure the RECTISOIL portion 

 shows pro rata, increased Crop, thus illus- 

 trating how the value of fertilizers is enhanced 

 by the use of RECTISOIL.

YORKSHIRE. -October 19th, 1920. 



Yon may be interested to know the results of an applica- 

 tion of your insecticide preparatii n RECTISOIL this s- ason. 



I have 2 fields adjoining: one another, ploughed out grass 

 in 1918, and in spite of all rolling and other precautions, 

 the crop was a failure owing to severe attacks of wireworm. 

 Both fields were drilled with wheat at the same time this 

 season, one being dressed with RECTISOIL. The un- 

 dressed field was an absolute failure, and had to beredrilled 

 with oats. The field that was dressed has grown a very 

 excellent crop so far as appearances go, and I should think 

 will yield from 5 to 6 qrs. wheat per acre. 



I felt this result was so interesting and satisfactory that 

 you would like to hear of same from n<p. R. D."
