The subscriber has on hand full assortment
Of the most approved MANUKES, which heis
prepared to sell in any quantity desired, at the
LOWEST MARKET RATES.
AS the prices are uniform the farmer can ob-
tain his supplies as we'll by correspondence rs
though he were to purchase IN person.
I OFFER:
Peruvian Guano, of the best quality.
Bolivian Guano This article comes from the
sembles in texture disappearance. It is much
richer in Phosphate, but has loss Ammonia. For
stiff soils or stiff sub-soils it will answer quite
we'll AS Peruvian, and it costs but two thirds
the price Of that article.
Mexican Guano, OF four grades.
Ground Bones.
Whitelock's Cerealzer The high reputation
borne by this article as the most effective and
reliable crop producer made in the United
States, induces me to ask tho farmer to test it
alongside of any manure he msy, apply. ,
Woolstons Amoniated Bone Phosphate. This
article is manufactured by the same house, and
contains all the best qualities Of Peruvian Guano
and Ground Bones. w III. ID. LIZ WIN.

NUANO.-REED'S AMMONIA TED SU-
" PER ERPHOSPHATE or LLfE.-The best
superphosphate yet offered to the farmer, pos
sessing all the activity of Peruvian Guano, but
being far more durable in its effects.
It contains large amount of animal matter
in a highly concentrated form, which, combined
with its soluble bone phosphate oflime, cannot
fail to render it very valuable as a fertillzer'-
Notwithstanding we believe it to be the best
super-phosphate in the market, yet, by q pro
cess peculiar in its manufacture, whereby the
expenses are essened, we are enabled to sell 1t
very low. with liberal discount to dealers.
