The curve-or-growth method of estimating the stellar surface magnetic fields is applied to six Ap stars of different temperatures and one normal (or metallic-line) star σ Aqr. The values of Hs determined by the curve-of-growth technique are in good agreement with those obtained by the photometric method.
