We again present to the agricultural commu.
nifty our Fertilizers with renewed confidence, as
equal if not superior, to any manure offered fol
all crops not excepting Peruvian Guano. cal
by year their value has become more manifest
rs demonstrated by largely increased sales, and
we challenge any brand to show more satisfac-
tory and uniform results. Combining our manu-
facture to materials of highest standard, Us
proved by analysis, we claim like results in all
time On the Wheat crop the testimony is OF
UNREASONABLE character. We respectfully call
attention to our popular Guano, known us
GENUINE PHOSPHO-PERUVIA

Beautifully prepared and adapted to the Drill,

The character of this Guano is so well known
rs TO need but little further commendation from
U.S. Used for many years, it has becomea favor
lite with all consumers. and 1t only requires a
trial to convince all of its value. The Ammonia
and Bone Phosphate being in rational proper
tions, it can hardly fail to render satisfaction,
improving the quality and increasing the crop
it adds one other most important essential in the
permanent improvement of the land--in this
particular we question whether it has its equal.
1t acts wonderfully upon the grass crop, and to
such an extent as to bring Impoverished lands
up to high state of fertility-equalling Bone
