PACIFIC GUANO

PRICE $45 DOLLARS CASH, WITH
USUAL ADVANCE FOR TIME.
E1XPERIENCE in the use Of this
H Guano for the past six years in
this State, for Cotton and Corn, has 30
far established its character for excel
lence as to render comment unnecessa-
ry.
In accordance with the established
policy of the Company to furnish the
best Concentrated Fertilizer at the low
est cost to consumers, this Guano Is put
into market this season at the above
reduced price, which the Company is
enabled to'do by reason of its large ia
cilities and the reduced cost of manu-
facture.
The supplies put into market this sea-
son are, as heretofore, prepared under
the personal superintendence of DR.. st..
Julian Ravenel, Chemist of the Compa-
ny, at Charleston, s. e., hence, planters
may restassured thatits QUALITY and
COMPOSITION is precisely the same
as that heretofore sold. At the present
low price every acre planted can be fer
tilted with two hundred pound Guano
at cost not exceeding the present value
of 30 pounds of cotton, while experience
has shown that under favorable condi-
tions of season and cultivation the crop
is increased by the application from
two to threefold the natural capacity of
the soil. Hence, under no conditions
could its application fail to compensate
for the outlay. Apply to
