DE- BURG EXCELSIOR F!
PERUVIAN GuAkO ExCELLED
By
ode BURG"


~ 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 inspects every
lot we receive, before offered for sale, and says
in his report to US
DE Burg IS 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
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 fertlizng and durable properties
Of De Burg in addition TO its value as q crop
grower;
JAMES w. BURDETT, Esq Montgomery
yCo., Nd, says, Jan. %, 1858 81 applied De
| Burg to my corn, 1870 pofnds per acre, or
handful to 3 hills, on an old field, quite thin,
| that would not have brought more than three
| barrels per acre; by applying as | stated I
made to barrels per acre; applied at the
I same rate for oats, and they were very good
| for tobacco, like it very much, as it grows
I off qnck and natures il carly II does 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
4 Guano'
r. B. S0PER, Esq, Montgomery Co., Nd,
says, Jan. 90, 1885, :" applied $50 pounds
OF De Burg per acre, on corn in the hill; this
consider 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 filing of
the grain | consider better; | believe it is a
more permanent fertilizer than guano."
HENRY BUSSARD, Esq, Mount Airy, Car
roll Co. says 81 have the most glowing ac-
counts from those who used the DE Burg 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, rs
it sustains the crop much better in a drought
than guano."
f. WAKEFIELD, Esq, Carroll County, Nd,
says, February 18th, 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: 9 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 il on my tobacco. and so far, it
seems to me to be quite the equal of the Peru
Wan Guano One decided advantage it Dos
sesses is lhatit is cheaper and less troublesome
JESSE HALL, Esq, Carroll Co. Nd, saws
Jan q, 1858: I" applied De Burg to my
corn in the hill. My crop was good one /
am satisfied it win fayorably compare with No.
Peruvian Guano''
Take Notice.
Notwithstanding the great success of De
Burg heretofore as rival Of Peruvian Guano,
Mr.. he Burg has increased the ftrtiIizing pro-
pertes 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
ell Others, bat subject to reinspection, at our
expense, if not as represented
LOOK FOR INSPECTION MARK.
The Genuine DE Burg is in barrels, will
,0hite heads, maker name in black letters, and
Baltimore Inspection Mark in RED letters there
on-none other genuine.
