IL prepared Peruvian Guano, Bones,
Flesh, Blood, &c, and is prepared expressly
to supply all soils, whether deficient or not,
with the constituents to produce all crops, and
at the same time improve them; no Guano or
edmixture Of Guanos can do this as none con-
tain the requisites within themselves.
Any one Of the seven elements Of De Burg
are as important to the practical farmer as
either Of the two which guano supplies as a
proof Of this, we subjoin the opinion Of DR..
DAVID STEWART, Chemist to Maryland
State Agricultural Society, who inspeets every
lot we receive, before offered for sale, and says
in his report to US
Ode Burg compound is much more general
ly valuable to the practical farmer than any
mixture of phosphates and ammonia or manip-
ulated guano."
Again -" There are other elements in De
Burg to which | attach as much Importance as
ammonia and phosphates and | cannot pass a
cargo where one Of these is absent, however
much ammonia and phosphates are present"
We call your attention to the following Tes-
timonials, received within the past month,
from well known gentlemen, nearly all Of whom
speak Of the fertilzing and durable properties
of De Burg in addition 10 its value as a crop
S' TGThs wbURDErr, Esd Montgomery
Burg to my corn, 1870 pounds per acre, or a
handful to hills on an old field, quite thin,
that would not have brought more than three
barrels per acre; by applying as ! stated,
made to barrels per acre; applied at the
same rate for oats, and they were very good (;
for tobacco | like it very much, as it grows
off quick and natures it early II docs not
affect Or burn the roots OF corn like guano-
My wheat sown with De Burg looks equally as
well as that beside it. sown with Peruvian
GuanO."
r. B. S0PER, ESQ, Montgomery Co, Nd,
says Jan. %, 1858 " ! applied $50 pounds
Of De Burg per acre, on corn in the hill this
consider a very light dressing The growth
of the corn ! think equal to what it would
have been from the same number of pounds OF
Peruvian Guano, and the caring and filling Of
the grain ! consider better; | believe ii is a
more permanent fertilizer than guano."
HENRY BUSSARD, Esq, Mount Airy, Car
roll Co. says ~ have the most glowing ac-
counts from those who used the DE Eurg' last
spring on corn, Sc, Of its superiority over
Peruvian Guano and every other fertilizer
used some and it beats anything | ever used on
corn. My neighbors say De Burg is fully equal
to the best No Peruvian Guano for wheat
and decidedly better for any summer crop, as
it sustains the crop much better in a drought
than guano."
E. WAKEFIELD, Esq, Carroll County, Nd,
says, February lth, 1858 have used De
Burg on oats and corn and am disposed to
give it the preference to Peruvian Guano."
BAKER II. SIMMONS, Esq, Frederick Co.
Nd, says: In reply to your enquiries, it
gives me much pleasure to inform you, that,
pound for pound, your De Burg is quite as ad-
vantageous as the best No ] Peruvian Guano.
! have tried it twice on wheat, and found it
producing fully as large a yield and lately /
have tried it on my tobacco, and so far, it
seems to me to be quite the equal Of the Peru
Wan Guano. One decided advantage it pos
sesses is thatit is cheaper and less troublesome.
JESSE HALL, Esq, Carroll Co., Nd, saws.
Jan q, 1855; q applied De Burg to nv
corn in the hill. Ny crop was a good one.
am satisfied it will flvorably compare with No.
! Peruvian Guano."
Take Notice.
notwithstanding the great SUCCESS % De
Burg heretofore, as a rival of Peruvian Guano.
Mr.. De Burg has increased the fertilizing pro
perues of his compound, for our sales fully
FIFTY PER CENT. We now challenge the world
TO produce its equal, at the same or an approx
innate price
Farmers will pay particular attention to the
fact that De Burg is the only fertilizer that is
inspected in Baltimore, Except guano as it
comes from the Islands, and is guaranteed of
uniform quality-not sold upon the representa-
lion of the manufacturer, as is the case with
all Others, but subject to reinspection, at our
expense, If not as represented.
LOOK FOR INSPECTION MARK.
The Genuine De Burg is in barrels, will
ich{te heads, makers name in blqck letters, and
Baltimore Inspection Mark in RED letters there
on--none other genuine.
