TO FARMERS OF NEW ENGLAND.

The subscribers call your attention to new Fertilizer prepared by the Lodi Manufacturing Co.,, madefrom Night Soil, Blood. Bones and Ofal of New York City, called ~ts
 DOUBLE REFINED POUDRETTE. which is an entirely different article from the common Poudtette mace in former yearc. It Is double the strength of the old k Ind, fine as flour, free from coarse impurities, and is as strong and effective as any superphosphate in market although sold for only twenty five dol lars per ton.
 This article has only been used one season. but its effects have astopished every cue who have tried it, and the company confidently as- sert that used in quantities half as large as was formerly used of the common Poudrette, that 1t will not only double the crop, but ripen It rom ten days to two weeks earlier.
 ms makes 1t by far the cheapest and most preferable manure ia market.
