DIR. JAMES HIGGINS.

For the past ten gears STATE agricultural
Chemist Of Maryand,)
AGENT FOR THE SALE OF REAL ES-
TATE, DEALER IN MANURES,
and erery thing connected with the Farming
and Planting interests, offers ii his services.
A long experience az practical planter
IN and farmer, with the constant analytical
examination for more than ten years, Of every
kind of Manure sold in our market, (advan-
tagcs possessed by none others in the trade, }
will enable me always to furnish those, who
may favor me with their orders, with the
best. parest, and therefore the cheapest Manures
Farmers, Planters and others will be iurn-
ished with the following natural Manures
PERUVIAN GUANO,
MEXICAN GUANO,
SOMBRERA GUANO.
NEVASSA GUANO,
COLUMBIAN GUANO,
BONE DUST,
and all others in our Market worthy Of pur-
chase. Also, with Plaster of Paris, and
Pure or Magnetism Lime, according to the
wants of the Soil,-and too much care can
not be taken in adapting the proper lime to
soils for the want of care Of this kind thons-
ands Of dollars have been annually lost to
the State. Also the following artificial
Manures
HIGGINS SUPER PHOSPHAT OF
LINE, prepared under his own direction.
These Manurcs are admirably adapted to
Corn, Tobacco and Market Crops, &C.
Practical tests have established their value
and efficacy.
AS a Manure in the hill for Corn, they can
not be excelled.
HIGGINS PROSPIIATED PERUVIAN
OR MANIPULATED GUANO, prepared
also in the same manner, with the greatest
care and precision.
This mixture of Peruvian and Phosphate
Guanos, was first recommended by me, and
successfully used by many planters and
farmers of this State, years before it was
ever made or sold in the city of Baltimore,
by those who have pretended to be its orgi-
Eators. or this be denied can furnish
abundant proof Of the accuracy Of my state
ment) Also,
HIGGINS NITRATED SALINE FER
TlhlZER, an admirable Top Dire ssing for
Wheat, Oats or Grass. which has been very
successfully used, and prevents, to great
extent, the wheat from being straw fallen;
where the wheat is pale, sickly or yellow, it
at once changes it to a bright, healthy green,
and rapidly increases its growth, and greatly
promotes the yield.
Also the Tobacco Bed Manure. A Top
Dressing for Tobacco Beds, of established
efficacy for the growth Of plants and protec-
ton against the ravages of the fly. This has
been proven by repeated trials and long con-
tinued experience.
All Manures sold in our markets are liable
to differ naturally, though coming from the
same place and bearing the same mark
Still more are they liable TO authorizations,
&c., and for these things our inspection system
has nerer atirded an adequate projection.
AL! Manurcs sold by me will have my name
on each bag or barrel, be carefully
ana9 sed, and for their purity the buyer is
pledged legal guarantee and my personal
honor.
The Manures sold by me will be at the same
rate as those sold by others in the trade.
