BALTIMORE, July 70, 1871.
Gentlemer-It affords me great pleasure to
testify to the virtues of the Magnumr Bonum
Fertilizer, as tested this spring at my country
residence, Nestlewood. -, I'D LII
Itried-it upon old grass, new sod, flowers,
vegetables &C., and in all cases with the most
marked success. Sa@=t 'iss} ~
l sowed lawn grass seed where the subsoil
was of hard clay, with only one inch of top
soil, and that poor, and gave it . dressing Of
Magnum Bonum on April 10, 1870. By the
10th of May, the grass was two inches high,
about eight inches high, and competent judges
declare it the most remarkable stand of grass,
for its age, they eversaw. Isean therefore say
that for grass landss Vegetables, &C., your Mag
mum Bonum surpasses any Fertilizer have ever
SEEN, Very truly, yours, -. l.,, !

Yours asking the result Of my experiment
with Magnum Bonum is to hand.
The Fertilizer was applied to corn at plant
ing, May 5th, with machine, wheat drill, with
all tubes but two removed depositing same
with seed at the rate Of 50 pounds per acre
On June 2sth was applied broadcast of same
manure 200 pounds per acre, ploughed in at
last working of corn. The FIRST application
acted finely, causing the crop to push with a
vigorous growth second to none, considering
the difference as to time in favor of its compe-
titors. The second application made when the
tirely satisfactory in its results producing a
steady, rapid growth and development through
out the season, and full remunerative return
at gathering. The Magnum Bonum ranks a.
mong the best manures ever used.

Reduction in Price


THIS article is composed of Pure, Ground
i Bone dissolved in Sulphuric Acid, Animal
Matter and Potash.
1t contains no heavy mineral substances such
as enter into the composition Of most of the ar
ticles sold under the name Of Super Phosphates,
and consequently the bags in which it is pack
ed, though as large as any other, contain only
1871 pounds, thus saving to the farmer at least
20 per cent. of weight in the same bulk.
1t has less inorganic matter than those arti-
cles which are based on Rock Guano or other
heavy material. The farmer therefore derives
benefit from almost every atom of its bulk,
either as crop grower or permanent improver
of the soil.
