BAUGH'S IMPROVED RAW BONE
PHOSPHATE OF LIME.

T HAVE now on hand supply Of this old es-
L tablished favorite, which has been thorough
ly tested for the past fifteen years. 1t has been
much improved by the addition of Ammonia,
rendering its action much quicker than before.
1t is based on Pure Raw Bone, and warranted
not to contain any heavy mineral matter, thus
saving to the farmer about one-fifth in the way
of weight to say nothing of the superiority of
the Bone Phosphate of Lime, obtained from
Pure Bones over the many mineral Phosphates
used in the manufacture of Fertilizers.
