FARMERS
FERTILIZER BULLETIN.

The Farmers Fertilizer Company of Car
roll comfy is not misnamed corporation.
1t is an organization for the benefit of the
Farmer and no one else; whatever profit may
occur in an economical administration of its
business, after payment of expenses. goes to
the purchaser of its goods. That is one of
the reasons why, after several years Of trial,
it is able to say in 1891 that, notwithstanding
the advance in prices of certain material,
unlike other firms, there will be
No Advance in Prices of Its
Goods.
A careful observation of the market will en-
able one to purchase in advance of rise, and
that is ANOTHER REASON why the Farm.
ers Fertilizer Company is able to
UNDERSELL THE INCAUTIOUS.
Grade for grade on certain leading brands of
any house or firm in Carroll county, its goods
are from 81 to Sc per ton cheaper; and this is
confirmed by the analysis made by the State
chemist of Maryland as per report of Febru-
airy, 1891. That kind of testimony is unan-
swerable.
DON'T BE MISLED.
The announcement that extraordinary results
have been obtained from isolated fields from
certain literally advertised brands offertilizer
is intended for the unwary. The best test of
the virtues of any fertilizer is the result per
acre from an entire farm. These same ferti-
lizers, doomed into prominence, have been
known this year on full farm test to pro-
duce but from 49, to 81 bushels per acre; not
so in any instance, yet learned, has this been
the case with our goods. From % to A
bushels per acre have been the result when
the Farmers Fertilizer Material has been
used. We employ no agent, we sell nothing
but absolutely
PURE MATERIAL.
We buy our goods before an advance in
prices, we exercise the strictest economy in
the management, and we therefore assert,
now as heretofore, that if you want to be per-
fectly satisfied, give our goods trial. In
addition, if this company can be of service to
any of its patrons in furnishing them with
formulas, it will do so with pleasure and
without charge. An allowance of S1.00 per
ton will be made to those bringing their sacks
with them, and discount of 2 per cent will
be made on all cash sales.

Collie in Horses Cured.

Mr.. Jos. Longenecker gives the follow
ing recipe which he has used without fail
on the seveTest ease of collie in horses: To
a pint of water in long necked bottle add
one tablespoonful of common soda, and
double the quantity of salt; dissolve and
give to the animal through the nostrils.
This is easily accomplished by raising the
horses head with one hand and inserting
the bottle in the nostril. Exercise imme-
diately and repeat in a few minutes if nee
essary. Mr.. Longenecker has never found
a repetition necessary.

Cheap Cure for Train Sickness.

Nausea from the motion of the cars may
be prevented in the following way: Take
a sheet of writing paper large enough to
cover both the chest and stomach, and put
it on under the clothing, next to the per-
son. If one sheet is not large enough
paste the edges of two or three together,
for the chest and stomach must be well
covered. Wear the paper thus as long as
you are travelling, and change it every
day if your journey is a long one Those
who have tried it say that it is perfect
defense.
