DIRECTIONS FOR THE USE OF THE WANDO FERTILIZER.
Cotton.—From 250 to 300 pounds per acre—on the list—bedded or in drill with
seed.
Corn.—From 300 to 400 pounds per acre, 200 to 300 pounds in, the hill attbstia#
of planting, and the balance when the crop is 2| to 3 feet high.
Wheat.—Prepare the ground by deep plowing and harrowing. Apply, broadsast
with the seed, about 300 pounds to the acre, and in the spring from 100 to 200poaads
as, a top dressing. This will ensure a large yield.
Potatoes.—Apply the quantity designed for an acre in tbe drill; 250 pounds has
usually given au increase of four to one.
Vegetables.—Compost always with stable manure or leaf mould 300 to400pooads
per acre, in tbe drill and under the seed.

Blackville, S. C-, October 2Stb. 1869.
Your favor of 15tfi inst. is at band, and, in reply, will give you tbe information de
sired in regard to the Wando Fertilizer. I put out tbe 1st February, fifteeu buibtls
compost manure to the acre, running a deep furrow, then ridged on it, aud about tbe
1st April ran a block over the ridge and applied 100 lbs. to tbe acre, throwing with
good turn-plow, two furrows; and ou the 15tli I threw out tbe balance of tbe middle,
and planted my cotton. I think with tbe compost it would have yielded 600 lbs. seed
cotton to tbe acre. 1 got per acre, with the Wando, 1,000 lbs. seed cotton, which I
consider a short crop. Tbe long drouth and excessively hot weather cut it off at
least one-fourth. 1 applied some on thin land, without anything else ; that I gath
ered last year 250 lbs. to tbe acre, and this year gathered 500 lba., which shows an
increase uf 100 percent, with the unfavorable seasons we have bad. Used 100 lbs.
per sere on the tbin land above. B. J. KAY.
Bbnnbttsville, S. C., October 26tb, 1869.
In reply to yours of 15th inSt„ it affords me pleasure to report favorably on the
Wando Fertilizer, as to its merits as a manure for cotton. I tried it on two of my
plantations, side by side with Peruvian Guano, both in equal quantity and equal cost,
under cotton, on unmanured land. Where I used it dollar for dollar I think the yield
will be twenty-five per cent, more than tbe Peruvian Gnano, and where I nsed it
pound for pound I think tbe yield will be ten per cent, more than the Peruvian
Guano. Z. A. DRAKE.
Hebbndon, Blrkk Co , Ga., October 25th, 1869.
We bought, last spring, two tons of Wando Fertilizer, and used it, side by side
with Peruvian, No. 1, and raw cotton seed, under tbe cotton crop alone, the eye guid
ing solely in its distribution, without reference to quantity, upon old land, with a deep
silicious bed from eighteen inches to two feet and cropped, with little regard to rota-
tation more than half a century. Without an active manure, will uot produce, un
der tbe most favorable seasons, more than 300 lbs. of seed cotton, nor five bnsbels of
corn per acre. Tbe resnlts are entirely satisfactory. Tbe “Wando” has yielded
more than Peruvian, and three times tbe quantity of cotton seed, liberally applied at
a fertilizer.
The present has been the most blighting and disastrous season known in this tss-
tion for thirty years, and concentrated fertilizers a failure, especially those not com
bining a geneious quantity of nitrogenous matter.
From tbe results of this crop we are satisfied the “Wando” will prove a safe and
profitable fertilizer, and next year wo shall prove “our faitb by our works.”
J. H. & H. P. JONES, Jr.
Fobt Valley, Ga., October 2d, 1869.
I used the Wando Fertilizer this year, and am satisfied it increased my crop at
least 100 per ceut. I applied 200 pounds to tbe acre.
JOHN L MURRAY.
Fobt Valley, Ga. October 14tb, 1869.
In answer to your inquiries with regard to tbe results of the Wando Fertiliser a**d
b\- me, I reply that I am satisfied with it, and regard it one of the best fertilisers now
extant: E. W. JONES, M. D.
Fort Valley, Ga.. October 12th, 1869.
The Wando Fertilizer bought of you has beeu tested by me on cotton, and though
seriously injured by tbe long-continued drouths, I am pleased to say has been entire
ly satisfactory. I regard it as a first-rate fertilizer. JNO. F. TROUTMAN.
Mabshallvillb, Ga., September 28th, 1869.
I used your Wando Fertilizer on corn. It acted finely until the drouth set in, and
even then remained green throughout, and made a good crop, at least 50 per cent,
more than the same land woald bare made without any fertiliser. S. WARE.
Milledgeyjllb, Ga.. October 29, 1S69.
Messrs. Hall and Bundage are both pleased with the Wando, and particularly Mr.
Hall, who says be wants it another year.

I used Wando on cotton tbe present year. I feel satisfied that I made 75 par
cent, more cotton than I should have made without it. My erop suffered very mask

Fbog Level, Oetober 22d, 1S69.
I used your Wando Fertilizer on cotton this spring, by the side of Peruvian Guaos.
The Wando eaused tbe plant to grow off ahead of the Guano, gave it a better color
end matured it earlier. I am now using your Fertilizer under wheat and oats i»
preference to Peruvian Guano, and so soon as they are getbered will give you the
r e sult. MATHIAS WICKER.
