J. S. and P. Hakes of Albion, N. Y.. under date Of 
Dee. 26, l-,70, say We used the IJowWe Jieftned Pnu- 
rtrettis last year, and again this, t>u Corn and Potatoes. 
Since wo commenced using it we have not been 
troubled wllh out or wire worms eating our corn or 
boring our potatoes. The first year we used Italong- 
Side of hog manure. Where wn used it the stalks 
grew fully an large; but when wn mime to harvest, 
where we used Pondrette we had more and larger 
ears of mini, We could see a decided difference hi 
our crops this year where we used the Pondrette the 
previous vear ami where wo had not, thus proving to 
us that the value of the Pouorcue was not exhausted 
in line year.
