.HI 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
Gdmixture 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 inspects every
lot we receive, before offered for sale, and says
in his report to us:
"De Burg's compound is much more general
ly valuable to the practical farmer than any
mixture Of phosphates and ammonia or manip-
ulated guano."
Again Sc There are other elements in De
Burg to which attach as much importance as
ammonia and phosphates, and cannot pass Il
cargo where one Of these is absent, however
much ammonia and phosphates are present"
We call your attention to the following les
timonials, received within the past month,
from well known gentlemen, nearly all of whom
speak Of the &rtilizing and durable properties
Of De Burg in addition to its value as a crop
4r 3SEEHGs ". BtrAzr, Esq Montgomery
Co., Nd, says, jan. IS, 1858; Il applied De
Burg to my corn, 100 pounds per acre or
handful to 3 hills, on an old field, quite thin,
that would not have brought more than three
barrels per acre; ly applying as | stated,
made to Z barrels, per acre; applied at the
same rate for oats, and they were very good
for tobacco, | like it very much, rs it grows
Off quick and natures il early. 1t does not
affect or burn the roots Of corn like guano'-
Ny wheat sown with De Burg looks equally as
well as that beside il, sown with Peruvian
Guano'
r. B. S0PER, Esq, Montgomery Co., Nd,
says, Jan. %, 1858; " | applied 100 pounds
or De Burg per acre, on corn in the hill this
| consider a very light dressing. The growth
Of the corn l think equal to what it would
have been from the same number Of pounds Of
Peruvian Guano, and the caring and filing Of
the grain | consider better; | believe it is
more permanent fertilizer than guano."
HENRIBUSsARD, Esq, Mount Airy Car
roll Co. says; - have the most glowing ac-
counts from those who used the De Eurg last
spring on corn, &c, Of its superiority over
Peruvian Guano and every other fertilizer.
used some and it beats anything ever used on
corn. Ny 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.'
L. WAKEFIELD, ESQ, Carroll County, Nd,
says, February 18th, 1858 u 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 @ Ii reply to your enquiries, it
gives me much pleasure to inform you, that
pound for pound your De Burg is quite as adj
yantageous as the best No. ] Peruvian Guano.
have tried it twice on wheat, and found it
producing fully as large 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. 0na decided advantage it pos
sesses is, thatitis ,heaper and less troublesome.
JESSE HALL, ESQ, Carroll Co., Nd, says,
Jan 81, 1853: q applied De Burg to my
corn in the hill. Niy crop was a good one.
am satisfied it will tivorably compare with No.

TaEa Notice.
Notwithstanding the bfeat success Of De
Burg heretofore, as a rival Of Peruvian Guano,

TO produce its equal, at the same or an approx
innate price
