All which we will sell as low as they can
be had in the State. We call the especial
attention of farmers to the fact, that three
kinds of Bone Dust sold by Warfeld &
Allen in the Fall of 1865, at from So to
$3.50 per ton less in price, were tried by
some of our best farmers alongside the
justly celebrated frankfort Bone, and in
all the trials, that sold by Warlield s. Al
len fully equalled the frankfort Bone; in
some cases it proved better than the Frank
ford Bone.
On and after August, l, 1866, we will
keep at JONES' MILL, all the Fertilizers
above named as we'll as Bone Dust of our

EFFECTIVE AND LASTING MANURE.
The great advantages of this Super Phos-
plate of lime over others consist in the fact that
all of it, being available in the soil as food for
plants, it becomes entirely converted into crops
while the Super Phosphates made from mineral
phosphate Guano and mineral phosphates, in
stead of from bones, available only TO the ez-
tent that they have been rendered soluble by the
action of the sulphurc acid, the remaining por-
tions according to Prof. Voelcker and other high

be of any value to the crop.
This fertilizer has been successfully used
throughout the Southern and Northern States
during the past fifteen years.
