The Following Letter From Barnes Brothers, the Famous Fruit Growers and Orchardists of Yalesville, Conn., 
Shows That Thomas Phosphate Powder Brings a Prize to Every User in the Form of a Profitable Crop • 
The Coe-Mortimer Company, 
Gentlemen : 
In regard to Thomas Phosphate Powder, you will re¬ 
call that we bought of you last year 130 tons and we wish to 
say that it gave us most excellent results. On our peach 
orchard where we used it, the trees made a splendid growth 
with heavy dark green foliage, the fruit was of excellent color, 
Crop 
and the keeping qualities were remarkable, which was a big 
advantage, especially when we had over 150 cars to harvest 
in about two weeks as we had this year. 
IVe never saw better colored Baldwin Apples than those we 
grew where we applied a good dressing of Thomas Phosphate 
Powder. The best sold at retail for $9.00 per barrel. 
\ours truly, Barnes Brothers. 
THERE IS A TRUTH IN ALL THIS FOR YOU!
