The Hon. John It. McClellan, of Moores ville, Limestone County, Ala., has been using se\en of our planters for several years, says, Nov. l jß, ]sth*. thathehas never found its equal either as a planter, or as a distributor of guano and other commercial manures. He has kindly given us the following directions tor using if as such: Lor sowing or distributing guano. <• other commercial manures, use one blank slide, and a one-hole slide, with t lie hole a little larger th n lor sowing cotton; this will put 850 lbs. Dickson’s i Compound, or Currie’s Improved Hone Fertilizer, to the acre four feet apart. The Compound should be thoroughly pulverized. We have a large number of testimonials from parties using our Planter as to its merits, but we do not deem it necessary to append them. Let the following suffice. Athens, Ala , Jan. 12, 187<>. Gentlemen:—l have used seven of your Cotton Planters foi two years; they are unrivalled as seed sowers, but it is as distributors of commercial manures they excell all others; in fact, from experience, I think that their use is the only means bv which said manures can be equally distributed.
