ing: testimonials : 
Charles A. Messenger. Providence Co., 
R. I., writes : " The Double -refined Poudrette 
I bought of you has given satisfactory returns, and I con- 
sider it the best of anything I can use for an early crop." 
Thomas W. Latham, Providence Co., R. I., writes : ,4 1 
would rather have your DrmoU-reflned Poudrette than any 
phosphate I ever used. Where I U6ed it ou Potatoes it was 
far ahead of any other manure." 
L. H. Sheldon. Snp't of the New Jersey State Reform 
School, writes : "We have used Poudrette for several years 
vpon our farm crops, and for the money invested we have 
found nothing that has done us so much service." 
S. «T. Kelly, Burlington Co., N. J., writes: "I used 
Double-refined Poudrette on Rutabaga Turnips alongside 
of Peruvian Guano and Hen Manure. Where the Pou- 
drette was applied the increase was thirty per cent over 
the others. " 
William H. Cady, Ocean Co., N. J., writes: "I used 
Poudrette on Corn, Sweet and round Potatoes, Onions, and 
Lima Beans. It brought forward my crops two weeks 
earlier. I think it the best manure I ever used, giving 
lielter results than Peruvian Guano, at much less cost." 
Van Antwerp and Van Buren, Montgomery Co.. N.V., 
writes : " Pondrette has been used in this locality for ten 
years past, mostly on Corn, and those who have used it say 
they have from 14" to H more Corn by using the Poudrette." 
W. F. Gbrkin, of Essex Co., N. Y., writes : ,l I have 
need the Double-refined Poudrette for the ]ast five years^ 
and I consider it the cheapest fertilizer I can buy — giving 
the best results for the cost." 
Milton Strong, Suffolk Co., N. Y., writes: "I gave 
Poudrette a thorough trial this year, using it upon Corn, 
Potatoes, Lima Beans, Tomatoes, and Vines, and I have 
never raised better crops. My Cbrn willyield 100 bushels 
Of ears per acre, and my garden was the surprise and ad- 
miration of all who saw it." 
Henry T. Horton, Cheshire Co., N. H.. writes : "I 
find, from experiments made last year, the Double-refined 
Poudrette w» the cheapest fertilizer to use on Tobacco. I 
pat It beside Peruvian Guano with equal cost of both, 
and the Tobacco was 30 per cent better where I used 
Poudrette." 
W. H. Remington, Hartford Co., Ct., writes: " I have 
need Poudrette on Corn, Potatoes, and Tobacco. There 
was but one piece of Com in the place equal to mine, and 
that had 30 loads of manure per acre and mine none. The 
Tobacco started as Boon as set and grew luxuriant." 
Wm. &. Pomeroy, of Hartford Co., Ct., writes : " I have 
used the Double-refined Poudrette for several years on 
Tobacco, and I think it one of the beBt fertilizers made 
lor this crop."
