Roberts A Co., Atlanta, Ga. Gentlemen: I am well pleased with tho result of tho uso of the "Doublo Refined Poudretto" on my crops. I tried it ou both corn and cotton, and am satisfiod wherever it was applied the yield was moro than double what it would have been without it. I regret exceedingly my not using it moro extensively tho present year, but will try to make up my losa by purchasing a larger quantity next spring. I regard lt aa tho cheapest, most reliable, and easiest man? aged fertilizer within my knowlodgo, and cheerfully rocommend it (as I havo tried it thOTSUgbly) tc tho "?t?joib iii luis section, and particularly to those planting cotton, from tho fact of its causing it to mature from ton davs to two wroks earlier than it would without tb? use of tho Poudretto. 1 also used it on my garden, and found it of much benefit to ail kinds of plants. Very respoctrally, Ac. G. S. OGLESBY. Extract from a lettor received from Prof. Martin, of FTampdon. Sidney College, Va., dated July 1, 1807: Tho Doublo Refined Poudrotte is operat? ing like a charm on my orup, and attract? ing universal attention from all beholders. I am already satisfied that it is the cheap? est and surest renovator of our worn-out lands. - Bigh Shoals, Ga., October 4, 1867. James R. Dey, Esq. Sir: The Doublo Refined Poudretto I bought for two other parties in connection with myself-ono of them used it on cotton and corn, and thinks it answered lindy; the other put it on cotton, on very poor ground, and thinks it doubled bis crop. I used it on corn. It answered finely, and was thought by tho hand that cultivated the crop to bo fully equal to Rhode's Super Phosphate. I also used it on about an acre of cotton, and I am clearly of opinion that it ia tho bett and cheapest fertilizer in use, and I expect to order eovei al tons this winter. Yours, very respectfully, ISAAC POWELL. Ellaville, Schley Co., Ga., Oct. 4,18G7. Tho Doublo Refinud Poudretto, pur? chased of you last spring, I think, in? creased my crop of cottou 150 pounds per acre; put it upon worn-out pine laud, at the rate of 200 pounds per aero, dr ya in with cotton seed, Yours, Ac, 8. MONTGOMERY. Salisbury, A*. C., August 10, 1807. James R. Doy, Esq. Dear Sir: i can safely say that your Doublo Refined Poudretto is far superior to any other fertilizer for cotton; for 1 havo given it a fair trial this season. Yours, JEHU FOSTER, Ja. Savannah, Ga., September 25, 18C7. James R. Dey, Esq., President. Dear Sir: I used tho Doublo Refiucd Fondrette, bought of you last spring, on corn. I think it increased the yield one half. I consider it an excellent manure. Respectfully, T. HOLCOMBE. Ridgeway. S. C., September 21, 1867. Mr. James R. Doy. Sir: I applied tho Doublo Refined Pou? dretto by itself, and in combination with other fertilizers, on cotton, and am pleased with it; so much so that it is my proscnt intention to purchase a larger supply of you the next year to apply to my cotton crop. Yours very respectfully, HENRY C. DAVIS. Rocky Mount, Etlgccomb Co., X. C. Xoc 13. Jamos R. Dey, Esq. Sir: lu reply to your Inquiry of tho re? sults cf our experience in the use of your improved Poudretto-purchased of you for this year's cotton crop-wo would beg loavo to say that tho present season has been one quito unfavorable to the action of all fertilizers. Several kinds of manures wcro used by us, with tho exception of your Poudretto, with little or no effect to tho crop. Whore the Poudretto was used, it gave us near half a bale moro per acre, and caused the cotton to opon much earlier; and wo would, therefore, recommend tho same as a concentrated manure for the growth of cotton, as well as improvement to thc soil.
