EXCELSIOR is composed of 100 pounds OF
No. Peruvian Guano, and 1900 pounds of Sol
uble Phosphate Of Lime (bones dissolved in
sulphu1ic acid, potash and soda. forming the
most concentrated, universal and durable Ter
tilizer ever offered to the farner-combinlng all
the stimulating properties of Peruvian Guano
and the ever durable tertilizing properties of
Ground Bonos-supplyingan abundance of Am.
monia for any crop, and all soils. and IN per-
tectly fixed condition-not volatile and passing
off with the first crop, as with feruVlan ana
other ammoniacal guanos, but stimulating tho
crop to which is is applied, and all succeeding
ones. giving to poor, worn out and unproduct-
i've soils new life and vigor, making them, IN
this respect, equal to the most highly Guilt
waited lands, upon which much time and money
have beer expended.
EXCELSIOR Mas introduced in 1858. and we
challenge the manufacturers and vendors of fer
tlizers, natural or artificial Gusno, to show re.
suits so invariably successful Us can be shown

ties giving that protection to the farmer which
no does not have in the purchase Of any other
Guano or Fertilizer sold.
Excelsior is in fine dry powder, prepared OK
pressly for drilling. and can be applied in any
Quantity per acre, however small; and it is the
opinion Of tho most prominent and calculating
farmers, after TWELVE years experience in
testing it side by side with other popular fcrti-
izers that an application of 100 pounds OF Elk
sior is equal to 200 to 300pounds Of any other
Fertilizer or Gusno offered for sale, ana there
fore is fully 100 to 200 per cent cheaper.
Gs-The very best evidence We can offer Of
the value Of Excelsior as a.crop grower and
fertilizer, is tho fact of its being inflated and
countorfsited. Some unprincipled manulac-
turers have actually used the trade mark for
tho purpose of pslming of their worthless COM
