THE ATHENS GEORGIAN: MARCH 13, 1877.
sr
—FOR—
STANDARD FERTILIZERS!
THE EARTH MADE TO GIVE FORTH ITS RICHES
Experiments have demonstrated that of the ten Mineral Elements wliieh constitute the ashes
of plants, the presence of each and every one is essential to their perfect growth and develop
ment ; and, os crops extract them annually, no land can be permanently fertile
UNLESS THEY BE RESTORED TO THE SOIL.
This fact is now so patent to our fanners that thousands of tonB are annually sold in this mar
ket. Recognizing the importance of this interest to our section of country, I have secured the
Agency of the following old and Standard Fertilizers, which the farmers are invited to call, in
spect and price before Duying elsewhere:
OLD CAROLINA STONO SOLUBLE GUANO,
SAM ANA GUANO, CHESAPEAKE GUANO,
PALMETTO ACID, STONO ACID PHOSPHATE,
CHESAPEAKE AMMONIATED ALKALINE PHOSPHATES.

gh standard. These Firtilizers have been used constantly in this section
for several years, and I take pleasure in referring to parties who have used
them, for evidence of their great value For prices, terms, &e, please

Norwood, Ga., January 12, 1877.
Messrs. J. O. Mathewson & Co., Augusta, Ga.—Dear Sirs : I have used the Pacific Guano
for several years with good success. Last year I tried several kinds, viz: Barry, Pdtapseo and
Soluble Pacific.
On the 30th of March lost I concluded to make a test with Guano and Green Cotton Seed. I
manured three rows with Cotton Seed only. I themnanured threo rows with fifteen pounds of
Pacific Guano and Cotton Seed, using the same quantity of Barry’s and Patapsco mixed with
Cotton Seed on the same quantity of ground, which was poor mullato land, all the same kind and
oil treated alike.
• Manure.
Three rows Cotton Seed
Three rows Pacific Guano and Cotton Seed...,
Three rows Barry’s Fertilizer and Cotton Seed
Three rows Patapsco Guano and Cotton Seed.
The rows were 170 yards long, and I used at the rate of four bushels of Cotton Seed per acre.
Cotton was all picked on sunny afternoons, I being present and weighed it myself.
The experiment was made to ascertain what Gaano was best suited to use with Green Cotton
