To Jas. Ruddle <£■ Cos., Louisville, Ky.:
Osntlbmbn : This is to certify that I have been for
years a sufferer, and tried all the tonics I have heard
of or seen advertised, with little or no relief from any
of them. 1 heard Hurley’s Bitters highly spoken of,
and tried a bottle, with little fuith in it before I com
menced, and, to my surprise and joy, before I finished
one bottle I felt a great deal better, and firmly believe
that one or two occasions it was the means of saving
and prolonging my life. I conscientiously recommend
them to all sufferers as the best Bitters known, and
advise them always to ask for Dr. T. A. Hurley’s, and
have no other. You ean use this a.t you think proper,
If it will benefit others.
Y ours, truly, etc.,

your Compound Extract of Sarsaparilla, and com

my cough became less severe—the soreness of my
lungs and breast gradually subsided—my rheumatic
pains less acute. I attribute this mainly to your Bar

J. O. Mutheioson , Esq , Augusta , Ga. :
Dkar Sir : I received your favor of October
15th, and would have answered it sooner, but
you wished to know what per cent. 1 was ben
efltted by the use of the one ton of SOLUBLE
PACIFIC GUANO, bought of you last Spring,
and 1 could not tell correctly until 1 got
through ginning, which I did this last week.—
The 80LUBLE PACIFIC GUANO more than
doubled the yield of Cotton on land unmanured
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 ono ton of SOLUBLE PACIFIC GUANO,
and made seven (7) bales, averaging over 400 lbs.
I have been a Cotton Planter tor thirty years,
and all the time—except this year—making
“ Bumble-bee Cotton ” —the bumble bees stand on
their hind feet, on the ground, and suck from the
top blossoms. I never expect to plant another
acre without Manure, and wish you to send me
another ton of Soluble Pacific at once,and oblige
Yours, truly,
JOHN C. WILLIAMSON.

Read Analysis of Prof. JOH\SO\, of Yale College,.
I BOP. SAMUEL W. JOHNSON, of Yale College, in his “ Report on Commercial Fertilizers,” to the “ Connecticut Board of
Agriculture” makes the following tabulated statement of fertilizers analysed by him, with the explanation of Gold valuation, as
“ T . hc val «ation is not intended to fix, in all cases, the proper selling price of a fertilizer. It may, however, alwavs serve for
comparing together the money value of two or more manures, and so nearly represents commercial worth that the farmer will not
often err in refusing to lay out his money for any article whose cost much exceeds the calculated value.
“ The valuation is properly based upon the cost of the active and valuable ingredients of commercial manures, as obtained from
the cheapest standard sources. Without going into details of the calculations, 1 will state that the price? which I employed In m v
ltgport to the Connecticut State Agricultural Society in the years 1857, 1858 and 1859, when referred to the gold standard, are not far
Horn those which result from computing the present market cost of the commercially valuable elements of standard manures.”
Ihe Secretary of the Boaid, T. S. Gold, Esq., remarks on Prof. Johnson’s Report: “ These sample s analyzed by Prof. John
son, were received by him without their names, or any mark except a number. Most of them were taken, under my Inspection
from the bags or barrels in the storehouses of the dealers, and were just the article they had on sale. These packages were de-
Hv6r©rt personally, or forwarded by Express, so that he could know nothing of -their origin or pretensions ”
The annexed table shows the different manures analyzed by Prof. Johnson, of Yale College, giving th« names of the manures
of what composed, and their Gold, valuation ; also the market price at the time the report was made.

„ Ba y> that 80 far a ® 1 have .beard from the “AMMONIATED SOLUBLE BUFER
PHOSI HATE, the reports are very favorable Indeed. Several planters who have used that
and toe Peruvian Guano side by side , say they cannot distinguish any difference. I have used
both, and think your Fertilizer shows fully as well cs the Peruvian, and believe there will be a
great demand tor it nest season. It has been used during the present season on COTTON with
vttluatfteresults, by the following gentlemen, in Dallas County, of this State, to all of whom I
refer. Dr. Wm. Mixon, Capt. B. Boykhn, Ellis Mixon, Esq., Capt. A. V. Gardener. Hunter

Newberry, S. C., December 2d, 1869.
1 purchased of Messrs Wtllts & Chisolm one ton of “Crichton & Son’s Ammoniated
1 hospbates ” last Spring. I used it on both Corn and Cotton. I itm sati«fled that I received as
laigu a per cent, of yield for the cost, as any fertilizer 1 have used since the war.
J. S. HAIR
Milledgkvillb, Gv., November 16th, 1869.
The Amrnoniated Soluble Superphosphate.of Lime ” 1 received the 2d day of May, with
the request that. 1 should test its value on Cotton as atertilizer. When l received it 1 was near!)
through planting, and did not have an acre of ground suitable to plant in Cottou, so 1 selected
one acre most convenient, which was a piece nearly worn out and which, in my Judgment
would have produced without any fertilizer, about 800 lbs. Seed Cotton per acre. * I did not
get a good stand—about %of a stand—yet the result is 590 lbs. Seed Cotton, and about 60 lbs
Bolls caught by the frost, which will open yet.
1 bus it proves to be a good article—for any fertilizer that will realize fifty to one hun
dred per cent., as this has done, is a good investment. W. A. COOK
Culvbrton, Ga., November 15tb, 1869.
1 his year 1 have experimented with ten different fertilizers of the most popular brands—
and “ Wm. Crichton <fe Son’s Ammoniated Soluble Superphosphate of Lime ” is at pres
ent only equalled by two of the manures. lam not quite through picking, but there is so little
yet to be picked, that It will not materially alter the above statement or result.
I can, without hesitation, recommend this fertilizer to planter.! as a No. 1 Cotton Manure.

fused one ton of Wm. Crichton A Bon’s Ammoniated Superphosphate of Lime on five

am certain it can be relied upon lor uniformity. H. T. JOHNSON,
OF Johnson, Campbell & Cos., Macon, Ga.
Green County, Ga., December 20th, 1869.
1 used the Ammoniated Superphosphate of Lime of Wm. Crichton & Son on three acres
of Cotton. The Summer was remarkably dry ; yet I am well pleased with the result. The
yield of Cotton being much greater where the fertilizer was used, and paying me handsomely.
I can cheerfully recommend it as a first class fertilizer. The well known Integrity of the manu
facturers is a sufficient guarantee for its uniiormity. THOMAB P. JAMES, M. D.
