DE BURG EXCELSIOR,
PERUVIAN eJAh0 EXCELLED
BY
SIS DE BURG


g BE- BURG" IS composed Of chemically
~ prepared Peruvian Guano, Bones
fiesh, Blood, &C. and is prepared expressly
10 supply All SOILS, whether deficient or rot,
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 Dc Burg
are as important to The practical farmer as
either OF the two which guano supplies; as u
proof of this, we suljoin the opinion of DR.
DAVID STEWART, Chemist to MARYLAND
State Agricultural Society, who inspects every
lot we receive, before offered for sale, and savs
in his report TO us
'lje Burg compound is nlgfck moro general
ly valuable to the practical farmer than any
mixture of phosphates and ammonia or manip-
ulated guano.n
Again -" There are other elements in Dc
Burg TO which ! attach as much importance as
ammonia and phosphatcs, and cannot pass n
cargo where one Of these is absent. however
much ammonia and phosphates are PRESENT.
We call your attention 10 the following Tcs-
tlmonias, received within the past month.
from well known gentlemen. ncarvall Of HON

OF Pc Burg in addition TO its value as a crop

says, Jan. 28, 1883 81 applied 100 pounds
OF De Burg per acre, on corn in the hill this

more permanent fertilizer than guano.n

to the best No ! Peruvian Gpano for wbeaf
and decidedly better for any summer crop. ~
Il sustains the crop much better in q drought
than guan0.'
Z. WAKEFIELD, Esq, Carroll County, Nd.

have tried if twice on wheat. and found il
producing fully as large yield, and lately |
have tried it On my tobacco, and so far il
seems TO me to be quite the equal Of the Peru
Wan Gnano. One decided advantage it pos
sosses is, thatit is cheaper and less troublesome.
