DB BURG EXCELSIOR !
PERUVIAN GuANO EXCELEED
q DE- BURG :"
ssNE BURG" is composed of chcmi,

- 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
admixture Of Guanos can do this, as none con
tain the requisites within themselves.
Any one Of the seven elements Of De Burg
ere rs important TO the practical farmer MS
either Of the two which guano supplies as
proof Of this, we subioin 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 rs:
ode 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 :--"Therc are other clements in De
Burg to which ] attach rs much importance as
ammonia and phosphatcs. and cannot pass
cargo where one Of these is absent, however
much ammonia and phosphates arc present.
We call your attention 10 the following Tcs-
timonials, received within the past month,
1 from well known gentlemen NEARLY all of whom
! speak Of the fertilizing and durable properties
Of De Burg in addition to its value as crop
grower:
JAMES W, BURDETT, Esq Montgomery
! Co., Nd, says, Jan. IS, 1853 81 applied De
Burg to my corn, 100 pounds per acre, or
handful to hills, on an old field, quite thin,
that would not have brought more than three
barrels per acre; by applying J stated, ]
made 10 Z barrels per acre; applied at the
same rate for oats, aud they were very good
for tobacco, like it very much, ms il grows
Off quick and natures it early. IL 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
Guano."
r. r. SOPER, Esq, Montgomery Co.. Nd,
says, Jan. %, 1852 GO applied 100 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 il would
have been from the same number of pounds OF
Peruvian Guano, and the caring and filing of
the grain | consider better; ] believe il is q
more permanent fertilizer than guano.'
HENRY BUSSARD Esq, Mount Airy, Car
roll Co says ~ have the most glowing nc
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 il beats anything ever used on |
corn. My neighbors say De Burg is fully equal
to the best No. Peruvian Guano for wheat !
aud decidedly better for any summer crop, as |
it sustains the crop much better in a drought /
than guano'
f. WAKEFIELD, Esq, Carroll County, Nd, !
says, February nth, 1853 e / have used De .
Burg on oats and corn, and am disposed to
give ii the preference 10 Peruvian Guano."
BAKER II. SIMMONS, Esq, Fredericl, 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 rs adj
vantageous as the best No. ! Peruvian Guano
| have tried il twice on wheat. and found il
producing fully as large a yield and lately
have tried it en- my tobacco, and so far. it
seems TO me to be quite the equal of the Peru
Wan Guano. One decided advantage it pos
scsscs is, thatt is cheaper and less troublesome
JESSE HALL, Esq. Carroll Co., Nd, says
Jan q, 1852 81 applied De Burg to my
corn in the hill. NJ crop was a good one
am satisfied IL will iayorably compare with No.
Peruvian Guano.'
