Charles A. Messenger. Providence Co., 
R. I., writes : kt Th<' Double -refined Poudrette 
I bon«ht of von has given satisfactory returns, and I con- 
sider it the best of anything I can use for an early crop. 
Thomas VT. Latham, Providence Co., R. I., writes : " I 
would rather have vour Double -refilled Poudrette than any 
phosphate I even- used. Where I used it on Potatoes it was 
far ahead of any other manure." 
L. H. Sheldon. Sup't of the New Jersey State Reform 
School, writes : "We nave used Poudrette for several years 
upon our farm crops, and for the money invested we have 
found nothing that, has done us so much service." 
S. J. Kelly. Bnrlincton Co.. N. J., writes: lk I used 
Dovble-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. Cadt, 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 
better results than Peruvian Guano, at much less cost." 
Van Antwerp and Van Buren. Montgomery Co.,N.Y., 
writes : " Poudrette has been used in this locality for ten 
years past, mostly on Corn, and those who have used it say 
they have from j^ to % more Corn by using the Poudrette." 
W. F. Gerkin. of Essex Co., N. Y.. writes : " I have 
used the Double-refined Poudrette for the lastjfro years, 
and I consider it the cheapest fertilizer lean buy— giving 
tlu* 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 Own will yield 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 is the cheapest fertilizer to use on Tobacco. I 
put 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 
used Poudrette on Corn, Potatoes, and Tobacco. There 
was but one piece of Corn in the place equal to mine, and 
that had 30 loads of manure per acre and mine none. The 
Tobacco started as soon as set and grew luxuriant." 
Wm. S. Pomeroy, of Hartford Co., Ct., writes : " I have 
used the Double-refined Poudrette for several years on 
Tobacco, and I think it oue of the beet fertilizers made 
for this crop."
