all crops, not excepting Peruvian Guano. ear
by year their value has become more manifest.
MS demonstrated by largely increased sales, and
tory and uniform results Combining our MANU-
facture to materials Of highest standard n

time. On the Wheat crop the testimony Is OF
unqucstionable character. We respectfully call
attention to our popular Guano, known IS

The character of this Guano is so well known
as to need but little further conmendation from
us. Used FIR many years, II has become favor
tie with all consumers, and it only requires Il
trial to convince all of its value. The Ammonia
