TO FARMERS & PLANTERS. 
Double Refined Poudrette for sale in 
lots to suit customers. This article is sold 
for half the prize of other fertilizers, and is 
cheaper for Cotton, Corn, Tobacco, and 
Vegetables than any other in the market. 
Price, delivered on board in New York City, 
$25 per ton. I ask attention to the follow¬ 
ing testimonials: 
Charles A. Messenger. Providence Co., 
R. I., writes: “ The Double-reflned Poudrette 
I bought of you has given satisfactory returns, and 1 con¬ 
sider ft the best of anything I can nsc for an early crop.” 
Thomas W. Latham, Providence Co., R. I., writes : ” I 
wonld rather have your Double-refined Poudrette than any 
phosphate I ever nsed. 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 have used Poudrette for several years 
upon our farm crops, and for the money invested we have 
found nothing that has done ns so much service.” 
8 . J. Kelly, Burlington Co., N. J., writes: “ I used 
DmMe-rejln&i 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 Com, Sioeet and round Potatoes, Onions, and 
Lima Bean 9 . It brought forward my crops two weeks 
earlier. I think it the best manure I ever used, giving 
better results than Peruvian Gqano, 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 14 te X more Corn by using the Poudrette.” 
W. P. Gerkin, of Essex Co., N. Y., writes: “I have 
used the PouUe-refined Poudrette for the last 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 
Pondrette a thorough trial this year, using it upon Corn, 
Potatoes, Lima Beans, Tomatoes, and Vines, and I have 
never raised better crops. My Cora 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. n., writes: “I 
find, from experiments made last year, the iknMe-refined 
Poudrette w> the cheapest fertilizer to use on Tobacco. I 
pot it beside Peruvian Guano with equal cost of both, 
and the Tobacco was 30 per cent better where I used 
Pondrette.” 
W. H. Remington, Hartford Co., Ct., writes: “ I have 
used Poudrette on Corn, Potatoes, and Tobacco. There 
was bnt 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, 8. Pomeroy, of Hartford Co., Ct., writes: “I have 
used 'the Double-refined Poudrette for several years on 
Tbbacco, and I think it one of the best fertilizers made 
for this crop.”
