The Mystery Solved!

Observing the thrifty, vigorous growth of
the vegetables growing i'll our garden, a'friend
asked, swhy, what have you put on your gar
den, that every thing looks so well Inever
saw the like. How long have those peas and
beans and things been planted You must
have planted your seeds before any one else'
No, we didn't, either. The fact is, Sir, we
got some of Gill & Co.'S Phosphate Of Lime, and
sowed it over those ine looking peas you see
there, and that accounts for their vigorous ap-
pearance In fact, we sowed on everything
you see, and it acts like charm. We have
also planted it with our corn. and if the seas
on should be favorable, We expect to make at
leas: fourth more than was ever raised on
that lot before. II any one doubts. the efficacy
of this powerful fertilizer, let him try it, ''See-
ing is believing" ..g5.. 49,
