“ 1,600 bushels Potatoes on 6 acres.” Potato crop 
generally a failure. “Sold 100 .bushels at $1.80 
per bushel.” 
“ It has never in previous years been thought pos¬ 
sible to raise potatoes on the College Farm.” 
BENSON VAN VLIET, General Superintendent of Vassar College, Poughkeepsie, N. Y., 
January 80, 1883, writes:— 
“We have used your manures principally on potatoes, generally on old, used-up meadow 
land. Lust year the potato crop w.is a failure all about us, bat wo secured a large crop—the 
largest in the county—having raised over 1,000 bushels, of excellent variety and quality, from 
6 acres of land (30 bags Mapes Potato Manure), which serve us a good turn, ns we have to-day 
sold 100 bushels (« II.80, and have 700 bushels left for our own use. Part of these results I 
attribute to having planted at the right time; but the largest share of credit belongs to the 
manure, for strengthening and nourishing plants through the great drought which caused so 
many failures all about us. It has never in previous years been thought possible to raise pota¬ 
toes on the College Farm, but I think we can raise almost anything by using proper enriching 
substances, and plenty of it ”

“ Have f ound it impossible to obtain smooth pota¬ 
toes on our soil by using Barnyard Manure.” 
E. & J. C. WILLIAMS, Proprietors of the well-known “Chestnut Hill Nurseries,” Mont 
clair, N. J , December 37, 1881, write:— 
“ We have kept no record that will show in figures the comparative results from the use of 
the Mapt>s Complete manures. For several roars, however, our Potato and Corn crops have 
been grown by the exclusive use of the MAPES COMPLETE MANURES alone, and the 
yields have invariably boon more than satisfactory. We have found it impossible to obtain 
smooth potatoes on our soiL by using Ham yard manure, hut since we have been using the 
Mapes Potato Manure we have experienced no further trouble. The fact that we continue to 
use an increased quantity of the Mapes Manures each year is goo I evidence that we think 
well of them, aud we unhesitatingly recommend them to the farmers,”

LEWIS BEACH, New Castle, Westchester Co. N. Y., writes, November 1, 1881:— 
“ My experiments this year with the Mapes Complete Manures have been, as usual, very 
satisfactory. Although the season has beeu very dry since the middle of July, my crop was 
excellent, while those of my neighbors were, in some cases, hardly worth digging. I planted 
the White Rose variety in hills feet each way, two eyes to the hill, using about three bags 
of the Mapes Complete Potato Muniro per acre, with result as follows:— 
“ The Manes Complete Potato Manure yielded, per acre.844 bushels.

G. H. & J. H. HALE, Proprietors of tbe well-known “Elm Fruit Farm,” South Glaston¬ 
bury, Conn., November 7, 1881, write:— 
“ Have tested almost every manure used in the Connecticut Valley for tobacco growing, and 
if next Spring wo were to plant twenty acres of tabnc *o, every acre of it would be. manured 
with the Mams Tobacco Manure {Connecticut Brand). Anyone opposed to the use of com 
merclal fertilizers is cordially invited to visit our fruit firm of ilfty acres, on which nothing 
else has been me l for five years, and we think none will bo, so long as we can get as good 
results ns ut present.” 
From a circular just published by the New Jersey Agricultural Station we gather the following information, which may bo of value to farmers. Of the brands of fertilizers be t known 
in this community, the soiling price per ton excoe Is the estimate ' value in the billowing cases, the figures being the recess of price over osli ualcd vnlii" pc to : Alloutn.. n Bone, $18 54*

Soluble Pacific Guano, $3.0 i. Two brands are estimated to be worth MORE per ton than iho selling price, as follows: Mapes’s A Brand, $1 94; Mapes’s Corn Manure, $3,07.— lliahtstown
