In no. trials, the iermenting power OF this tertl-
zer has proved quit great as hat of the best Pc
ruvian duano, and Its action on humc matters in
the soil is ully equal; it colors the aqueous sou-
tiens; contains iatty bodies products as well as
salts OF ammonia. This part forms from twenty
five to twenty-eight per cent .of the compound.
Not only has the precaution of having analyses of
the materials and weekly produ is been taken, but
the same care has been extendeI to the marke table
article, and each LOT Of fifty tons is lepresented bv
an average sample. which is accompanied BY Ger
dfcate OF its composition, carefully determined.
The reputation this compound has obtaioed, as
manure and fertilizer. renders the manufacture an
important one, and the present Infringement should
recei it deserves, the confidence Of the Agicu-

PROOFS OF THE SUPERIOR QUALITY,
OF THE
AMERICAN WATCH
MADE AT
WALTHAM, MASS.

The American Watch Company of Waltham,
Mass, respectfully submit that their Watches
are cheaper, more accurate, less complex, more
durable, better adapted for general use, and
more easily kept in order and repaired than any
other watches in the market. They are simpler
in structure, and therefore stronger, and less
likely to be injured than the majority of foreign
watches, which composed of from 125 to 800
pieces while in an old English watch there are
more than 700 parts. How they run under the
hardest trial watches can have, is shown by the
following letter.
PENNSYLVANIA RAILROAD COMPANY
OFFICE OF THE GENERAL SUPERINTENDENT
ALTOONA, PA, Is Dec, 1866.
Gentlemen The watches manufactured by you
have been in use ON this railroad for several
years by enginemen, to whom furnish
watches part of our equipment. There are
some three hundred of tn m carried on
line, and we consider them good and reliable
tme-keeper. Indeed, have great satisfaction
in saving your watches give less trouble, and
have worn and do wear much longer without
pairs than any watches we have had in use
on this road. As you are aware, we formerly
trusted in those of English manufacture, of ac-
knowledged good reputation but as class they
never kept time correctly, nor have they done
as good service, as yours.
In these statements l am sustained by my pre-
decessor, Mr.. Lewis, whose experience extended
over u series of years,
Respectfully,
EDWARD H. WILLIAMS,
General Superintendent
american Watch Co., JValtha1n.
We make now five different grades of watches,
named respectively as follows:
Appleton, Tracy & Co., Waltham, Mass.
Waltham Watch Co., Waltham, Mass.
p. s. Bartlett, Waltham, Mass.
VIM. Ellery, Boston, Mass.
Home Watch Co., Boston, Mass.
All of these, with the exception of the Home
Watch Company, warranted by the American
Watch Company to be the best material, on the
most approval principle, and TO possess every
requisite for reliable time-keeper. Every deal
err selling these Watches is provided with the
Company's printed card of guarantee, which
should accompany each watch sold, that buy
may feel sure that they are purchasing the
genuine article. There numerous counter
feits and limitations of our Watches sold through
out the country, and we would caution purcha-
sers to be on their guard against imposition.
Any grades of Waltham Watches may be pur-
chased of Watch Dealers throughout the country
