and the ever durable tertilizing properties of

other ammoniscal gusnos, but stimulating the
crop to which is is applied, and all succeeding
ones, giving to poor, worn out and unproduct-

he does not have in the purchase Of any other

Excelsior is in fine dry powder. prepared ex-
pressly for drilling, and can be applied in any
quantity per acre, however small; and it is the
opinion Of the most prominent and calculating
farmers, after NV years experience IN
testing it side by side with other popular fertil-
izers, that an application of 100 pounds OF Ex-
! sior is equal to 200 to 800 pounds Of any other
Fertilizer or Guano offered for sale, and there
| fore is fully 100 to 200 per cent cheaper.
H-The very best evidence we can offer of
the value of Excelsior as a crop grower and
fertilizer, is the fact of its being initiated and
counterfeited. Some unprincipled msnufac-
turers have actually used the trade mark for
the purpose of pslming off their worthless COM
pounds.
