Read the following testimonials: At Home, near Marietta, Ga., Oct 16,1867. A. J. Roberts 4- Cos., Atlanta, Ga.: Gentlemen—l am well pleased willitlie result of the use of the “ Double Rejined I’oudrcUe'' on my crops. I tried it on both corn and cotton, and am satisfied wherever it was applied the yield was more than double what it would have bean without it. I regret exceedingly my not asing it more extensively ihe present year, but will try to make up my loss by purchasing a larger quantity next spring. I regard it as the cheapest, most reliable, and easiest managed fertilizer with in my knowledge, and cheerfully recommend it (as I have tried it thoroughly) to the farmers of this section, and particularly to those planting cotton, from the fact of its causing it to mature from ten days to two weeks earlier than it would without the nse of the Poudrette. I also used it on uiy garden, aud found it of much benefit to all kinds of plants. Very respectfully, etc., G. S. OGLESBY. Extract from a letter received from Professor Marlin, of Hampden, Sidney College, Virginia, dated July Ist. 1867. The Double Refined Poudrette is operating like a charm on my Crop, and attracting universal attention from all beholders. 1 am already satisfied that it is the cheapest and surest renovator of our worn-out lands. High Shoals, Ga., October 4,1867. James R. Dev, Esq.: Sir—The Double Refined Poudrette I bought for two other parties in connection with myself— one of them used it on cotton and corn, and thinks it answered finely; the other put it on cotton, oil very poor ground, aud thinks it doubled his crop. I need it on corn. It answered finely, and was thought by the hand that cultivated the crop to be fully equal to Rhode’s Super Phosphate. I also used it on abont an aero of cotton , and lam clearly of opinion that it is the best and cheapest fertilizer in use, and I expect to order several tons this winter. Yours, very respectfully, ISAAC POWELL. Ellaville, Schley Cos., Ga., Oct. 4,1867. The Double Refined Poudrette purchased of you last Spring, I think, increased my crop of cotton 150 pounds per acre ; put it upon worn out pine land, at the rate of 200 pounds per acre, drilled in with cotton seed. Yours, etc., S. MONTGOMERY. Salisbury, N. C., Aug. 10,1867 James R Dev, Esq.: Dear Sir—l can safely say that your Double Refined Poudrette is far superior to any fertilizer for Cotton; for I have given it a fair trial this season. Yours, JEHU FOSTER, Jr. Savannah, Ga. Sept. 25,1867. James It. DEY, Esq., Pres’t.: Dear Sir—l used the Double Refined Poudrette bought of you last Spriag ou Com. I think it increased the yield one half. I consider it an excellent manure. Respe-- jll T. HOLCOMBE. Ridgeway, S. C., Sept. 21,1867. Mr. James R. Dev.: Sir—l applied the Double Refined Poudrette by itselLiviid in combination with Other fertilizers, on COTTON, and am pleased with it; so much so that it is my present intentiou to purchase a larger supply of yon next year to apply to my Cotton crop. Yours, very respectfully, HENRY C. DAVIS. Rocky Mount, Edgecombe Cos., N. C., } November 13,1866. j James It. Dev, Esq.: Sir—ln reply to your inquiry of the results of onr experience in the nse of yourimproved Pond rette, purchased of you for this year’s COTTON CROP, we would beg leave to say that tho pieß ent season has been one quite unfavorable to the action of all fertilizers. Several kinds of manures were used by us, with the exception of your l’ondrette, with little or no effect to the crop WHERE THE POUDRETTE WAS USED IT GAVE US NEAR HALF ABALEMORE PER ACRE, AND CAUSED THE COTTON TO OPEN MUCH EARLIER, and we would therofore recommend the same as a concentrated manure for the growth of Cotton, us well as improvement to the soil.
