Messrs Meronev k Bro.
Gentlemen : In reulv to vour inauirv as to the merits of the Guanahani Guano, I will state all shrink back to the wall and remain as
that I have given it a fair, and, as I think, a thorough lest, and believe it to be one of the best silent as the grave, some with heads down,
fertilizers now in use in our country. In the month of February I bought two tons and applied and others possibly with hand to their
facts. You go out of the room.

it over my farm at the rate of 200 pounds to the acre under Cotton, and 100 poundato the acre on
Corn. On the 8th of October I picked from one row of Cotton 14 rods long, which had been
fertilised at the above rate, 8 pound of seed cotton ; from another immediately by the side of
this one, of the same length, to which I had applied no fertilizer, 1 picked ounces the same
day showing difference of over 8500 per cent, between land fertilized and not. I counted the
number of unopened bolls in each, and making calculation on this basis, I nnd mat tne lanu
without tbe Guanahani would yield 30 ounces to the row, 80 rows or 150 pounds to the acre;
with Guanahani it will yield 12 pounds to the row, 80 rows or 960 pounds to tbe sere showing
a difference of over 600 per cent.
I have not had an opportunity to teat the Corn yet, but from general observation, 1 leei war
ranted in making tbe statement that Guanahani has benefited my Corn at least 100 per cent.
On one acre of ground, aa a test, I sowed 400 pounds of Guanahani broadcast, subaoiling at
the same time 15 inches deep. This acre, under ordinary circumstances, has average 700 pounds
of seed cotton ; this year the yield will be at least 1800 pounds E. A. PBOP8T.

Gentlemen : In reply to your inquiry ss to the merits of Guanahani Guano, I would say
that I used it last Summer on an old field which would have produced very poorly under oral

I had one teat row snd this showed a difference of over three hundred per cent, in favor of the
I am satisfied that it is a srood Fertilizer and take pleasure in recommending it to every far

MERONEY & BRO,
All is now life and frolic. They crowd
around the woman you just spoke to, and
such laughing, such gesturing, as if it was
tbe richest joke of the seaeon.
The men patients have a good old time
now and then. For instance, to day tbey
plan a big deer hunt tor tbe morrow.
They agree to meet, say, at ten o'clock,
under tbe big oak by the spring with guns
and dogs. Sure enough the next day
tbey are all there in tho big passage of
the aslyum, all ready for the hunt. And
such carrying on as they do have.
"Here, Pinto, come here Ring, sic
there, Venus," and the men leap about on
a 11-fours like dogs, while another is leap
ing and runniug like a fine buck, the dogs
in full pursuit, and then a loud bang like
a gun, and tbe deer bounds, falls, and one
fellow runs np and slides his baud across
tbe throat like a knife, and the man gives
the dying kicks snd lies as still as death.
Curious life, this. The crazy playing
their part, we playing ours, and the whole
thiug a what! Sentinel.
Half tho discomforts of life are the re
suits of getting tired of ourselves.
People of good sense are those whose
opinions agree with ours.
Intellect without judgment is what ails
about one half of the smart people in this
world.
To lie about a man never hurts him, but
to tell the truth about him sometimes
does.
