David I. Galliher of the Chemical Gardens in South Dakota, writes: 
“I have before me a copy of your Hydroponics (Soilless Agriculture). I wish 
to commend you upon the completeness and thoroughness of your work, and I 
know that I have spent many dollars for books on this subject containing much 
useless information. I have checked your formulas against many I now have in 
use and against those in other books and I honestly believe you have the nearest 
to perfection of any heretofore released to the public.”

are now amazing the agricultural world with their astounding benefits to
