and Sykesville clubs, resulted in victory for
the Freedom club by a score of Is to 4. Jo-
seph W. Berret is captain and long stop OF
the Freedom club; John Chauncey Brooks
acted as captain of the Sykesville club. The
Sykesville boys lost in the first part Of the
game, but played better towards tho last part,
particularly in the two last innings. showing
that by little practice they would be hard to
overcome. The playing of the Freedom club
was remarkably good; they were stronger at
the bat and better at the pitch. The game
drew together quite number of people.
Staid old farmers watched the game with all
the eagerness of youth, and joined in the
hearty applause when their side won. Two
doctors were on the ground, yet we are happy

ably 1900 persons, and il is estimated that
at least twosthirds Of them we're white peo-

BY their presiding elder, Rev. E. s. Peck, of
Baltimore, and n the afternoon by Rev. Mr..
Riggs, Of Reisterstown. Good order was
generally observed during the day; except in
one instance, where a man received severe
cut on the head for having too much to say.
On account Of their financial condition the

The above are the most concentrated Fer

all the stimulating qualities of Peruvian Guano
aud the ever durable fertilizing properties OF
Bones in fine, dry powder, prepared express
ly for drilling.
For growing wheat, it is the universal opin-
ion of the farmers of Maryland and Virginia,
after over twenty years experience IN the use
of these Fertilizers manufactured by me, that
an application of 100 pounds is equal IN its
effects to 200 pounds of any other Fertilizer or
Guano, therefore fully so per cent. cheaper.
With my present advantages and superior
facilities for manufacturing, | challenge com.
petition with any Fertilizer sold in the United
States, in quality, mechanical condition and
price
BY strictly adhering TO my original torma-
las, using only the most concentrated materl-
ais and experimenting in person their manu-
facture, as for the past twenty-four years,
UNIFORM QUALITY Is GUARANTEED.
Farmers, to secure the only genuine Excel
sior and Phosphate prepared according to my
