It was rich, rare and racy, and well

J. O. Mathewson, Es<p, Augusta, Ga.:
Dkar Sik—I received your favor of October
15th, and would have answered it sooner, but you
wished to know what per cent. I was benefited
by the use of the one ton of SOLUBLE PACIFIC
GUANO bought of you last Spring, and 1 could
not gtell correctly uutil I got through giuniug,
which I did this last week The SOLUBLE
PACIFIC GUANO more than doubled the yield
of Cotton on land nnmaunred before.
I planted ten acres last year without manure,
and made three (3) bales of Cotton ; planted the
same ten (10) acres this year, manured with the
one toil of SOLUBLE PACIFIC GUANO, aud
made seven (7) bales, averaging over 400 lbs.
I have been a'Cotton Planter for thirty years,
and all the time—except this year—making ‘ Bum
ble-Bee Cotton”—the bumble-bees stand on their hind
feet, on the ground, and suck from the top blossoms.
I never expect to plaut another acre without Ma
nure, and wish you to send me another ton ol
Soluble Pacific at once, and oblige
Yours, truly,
JOHN C. WILLIAMSON.
