TESTIMONIALS. 



Texas, August 30th, 1900. 

 The Eggs I got from you gave me the finest 

 chickens I ever saw, and ana well pleased with 

 them. My cabbage seed bought of you came up 

 fine, and are the finest cabbage in this country.

Dear Sirs:— Let me call your attention to my im- 

 portant work in the interests of farmers and re- 

 liable seedsmen. My tests include fertilizers, in- 

 secticides, etc., as well as seeds of all sorts. For- 

 merly charges were made for testing and intro- 

 ducing work for seed firms; but now all work is 

 done gratuitously for parties who furnish material 

 for testing free of all costs to me. Would like to 

 test your Japanese Plant Food and Japanese In- 

 secticide, and will test same free of charge on 

 condition that you send them gratis prepaid. Re- 

 port will be made to you as to the results of trial, 

 and the attention of growers will be called to 

 workings of same with directions where to buy. 

 There is room for a good Insecticide here. 

 Yours trulv.

 RESULT OF TEST. 



September 18, 1900. 

 Dear Sirs:— The great trouble with Plant Foods 

 and Insecticides, i. e., for plants in house, conser- 

 vatory, etc., has been that they have been danger- 

 ous to plants themselves, I mean that a plant food 

 would stimulate and produce an abnormal growth 

 or else, if carelessly used, kill the plant. Insecti- 

 cides that have killed the insects, have injured 

 plant foliage. Your .Japanese Plant Fertilizer 

 and Insecticide have both done the work they were 

 supposed to do, and have done it well. Poses es- 

 pecially were benefitted by the Fertilizer and were 

 kept entirely free from bugs by Japanese Insecti- 

 cide. Shall commend them. 

 Yours truly, 



REV. J. R. LAWRENCE. 

 Xotk.— The original letters of the above are on 

 file at our office subject to examination. 



Texas. February 16, 1900. 

 The seeds I ordered last Fall came safely and 

 the vegetables were entirelv satisfactory. 



LUTHER P. MCMILLAN. 



Louisiana, March 30, 1900. 

 Have used youv seeds for three years and have 

 always found them excellent. 



C. W. RATLIFF. 



Texas, February 3, 1900. 

 I received the seed I ordered from you on the 

 18th of last month, and find them just as advertised 

 in your Catalogue. I shall always order my seed 

 from you hereafter. 



C. L. WYATT. 



Louisiana, September 15, 1900. 

 Having tried your garden seeds, can say there 

 are no better seeds anj'where. 



SAMUEL STOKES. 



Texas, December 22, 1899. 

 I received one of your Manuals last year of which 

 I am very well pleased, would like to'have one for 

 1900. I like the Knapsack Sprayer very much, and 

 think very likely 1 could do "well as an agent. 

 Please let me know your terms. 



MRS. MATHES BLOCK. 



Louisiana, November 8, 1900. 

 My cabbage is just fine from seed purchased of 

 you, heads in ninety days from planting, rve also 

 up. and have a perfect stand. I have tried other 

 seedsmen but will do so no more. Your seeds are 

 he best. R. F. KEARY. 



Mississippi, October 14, 1900. 

 Your Garden Manual is invaluable to us. We 

 could not garden without it. A. M. LYELL. 



Louisiana, October 25, 1900. 

 I am very proud of your seeds I bought of vou 

 last summer. LOUIS ROUSSEL. 



Louisiana, November 22, 1900. 

 The Alfalfa seed lately pnrchased of you is up to 

 an excellent stand, notwithstanding the scarcity 

 of rain, and is growing rapidly. This is the first 

 trial, I am informed, in this section that has given 

 promise of pleasing results. 



MRS. THOS. C. GLYNN. 



Mississippi, November 15, 1900. 

 Have thoroughly tested your Death to Chicken 

 Lice Powder you sent me for trial, and must say 

 that it is the best Lice Powder we have ever used. 

 You are at liberty to use otir testimonial, for 

 we know it will be the forerunner of many more. 

 BRYAXS GULF POULTRY RANCH. 



Mississippi, October 16, 1900. 

 I find your Tobacco Dust the best thing that can 

 be used in the Poultry Yard. During my eighteen 

 years experience in the poultry business 1 never 

 saw anything so effective for all round purposes 

 than your Tobacco Dust. It is finer and much 

 stronger than the average tobacco dust usually 

 sold. Coops should be cleaned at least once a 

 week, and ^teckler's Tobacco Dust sprinkled all 

 over — mites cannot live there. It is also much 

 easier to keep the poultry free from lice when used 

 in connection with Steepler's Chicken Lice Pow- 

 der. G. T. GOODE. 



Louisiana, July 29, 1900. 

 I wish to state here, that I use your seeds all the 

 time, as my merchant sells them. Rather have 

 them than any seed I ever used. 



GEORGE JACKSON. 



Mississippi, April 23, 1900. 

 I am so pleased with your garden seeds that I 

 wish you to send me some I cannot get here. Had 

 excellent results from vour oeans last year. 



MRS." CHAS. M. ANDERSON. 



Texas, November 3, 1900. 

 I must state right here that your Frotscher's Su- 

 perior Large Late Flat Dutch Cabbage is the only 

 reliable cabbage I and many other of my friends 

 plant. It seems as if every seed makes two plants, 

 so well do they come up. Last year I made the 

 finest and most solid heads of any seen in this 

 section. I now have a beautiful stand and have no 

 doubts about the results. CHAS. DeLIMON. 



Honduras, May 13, 1900. 

 The Plymouth Rock and Wyandottes received O. 

 K., and am well pleased with them. Thev are 

 certainly fine birds. HENRY ROGERS. 



Florida, August 2, 1900. 

 The pair of Maltese Cats and the Belgian Hares 

 I purchased from you arrived safe and sound and 

 give entire satisfaction. Thev are admired bv all 

 my friends. JACOB THOEL. 



Mississippi, July 9, 1900. 

 Your Japanese Plant Food is the best I ever 

 used, and it can't be beat. 



THOS. G. ERVINE. 



Alabama, June 6, 1900. 

 My plants arrived in excellent condition, and 

 did not lose one. MRS. THOS. COOPER. 



Louisiana, August 27, 1900. 

 The Croix brand Scythe Blade I got from you 

 turned out to be the best I ever used. For general 

 cutting of grass and weeds it is just splendid. It 

 stands more rough usage and keeps its edge better 

 than any other kind. Am well pleased with it 



CHAS. BROCTON.
