CHINCOTEAGUE
FISHfMANURE!
The analysis of fish proves it to be one Of
the best materials for making manure that
is known. 1t being composed of large
amount of Amonia, Phosph oric Acid and
portion OF Potash-the three essential in-
gradients that furnish the food for plants or
crops.
In the manufact ure OF the Chincoteague
Fish Manure, Potash and Muriate OF Soda
are added to the fish scrap in such proper
tiOns as TO make it a complete and strong
manure without any adultera:ions Of worth
less material.
All persons in quest OF n good fertilizer
are invited 10 try the Chinco,eague Fish
Manure, manufactured by

Mn. WV. II. LINGO:

Ms nure this year side by side with Bone
Phosphate that claims a high reputation,

is the best manure ! ever used. II has done
all you claim for it and more.

WM. II. LINGO, Esq.
] used three tons OF the Chincoteag e
Fish Manure manufactured by you this year
on beets. potatoes and corn, side by side
with stable manure. The beet aud potato
crop where | used the fish manure was
equally as good as where | used stable and
| see no difference in the prospects of the
corn crop where the two msnures were ulsd.
| am we'll satisfied With the results, believe
il to be good manure and will use il and
no other for my wheat.
Respectfully,
DAVID PEPPER.
GEORGETOWN, Aug. 10, 81.

AS an experiment put 200 pounds
OF your Chincoteague Fish Manure on 5000
cora hills. There is q great difference in
the corn where put the manure and be-
lieve the difference in the fodder alone,
eau sed by using the fertilizer will pay foe
the manure. think il cheap and good
manure ard shall use it and it only for
seeding this fall.

OF Christ's doctrines. Christ
teaches US that we should be

we give the "Tall Cypress of Mas

In speaking OF the importance of regu

the following; Eve have observed many
head of stock dropping, rough IN

some loss of appetite. We had thought il
was owing to the constant irritation from
flies and the long continued dry weather.
Upon questioning the owners however We
generally find that periodical sailing has
been neglected; while our own cat lie, who
have received their regular weekly allow

bile be able properly to assist digestion,
nor the cartilages to build up again as

to place salt where cattle can have free ac-

small quantities. They will help them

so at pleasure; otherwise, when they be-

The judicial battering ram has opened a
breach IN the Kansas prohibitory law,
which win probably be widened until a
coach and six can be driven through it,
The first case under the law came up on an
Indictment of a druggist for selling certain
culinary and toilet articles containing alco-
hol, without first obtaining license, and
if we understand the decision of the court
quashing the Indictment. the law is invalid
so far as it prohibits the sale of intoxicat-
ing liquors, which, under the constitution
al amendment, it was authorized only to
regulate; and further, because it attempts
to confer judicial power upon probate
courts, which, under the constitution,
cannot, by any means, have such
powers The decision is a rather singular
one. The prohibitory law was made to
carry out the prohibitory amendment to
the constitution, and the universal opinion
was intended to be prohibitory, not regu
lating If prohibitory amendment, with
prohibitory law. does not prohibit, then
it viii puzzle the people of Kansas to tell
what win. The decision may be regarded,
however, as loosening the carefully con
strueted framework of the law, which will
shortly go to wreck. 1t was an exceeding
ly severe and rigorous enactment-and
this is the secret of its failure. Missouri
