There is little wonder that all the agents
travelling through this locality are aiming at
RECKORD'S SPECIAL C0MR0UND.
They say, Il will sell you just as good fertil-
izers as Special Compound, for several dollars
per ton less" MY Phosphate is as good as
Reckord's Special Compound" Some even
say, IF my fertilizer is not as good as Reck-
ord's you need not pay for it - and cases have
been known where they DID NOT have to pay
for it. Even then the cheaper fertilizer was
the most expensive. You loose your crop and
time also.
With our experience we know how to make
fertilizer that is best adapted for the crop upon
which it is to be applied. Certainly we know
as much about it as people who never made a
pound in their lives.
You need fertilizer that will bring the re-
suits i'll the soil. 1t is not so particular as to
its analysis. Fertilizer with the same analysis
can be attained for much less money than we
sell Special Compound for. If you only desire
analysis we can make Il fertilizer, guaranteed
as high analysis as Special Compound, for u
the price of the Compound, but the compost
ton will not be the same. You get more than
| the analysis from us. With each bag of Spe-
cial Compound you get quarter of IL century
experience in manufacturing. The results
show this is worth something in fertilizer.
The crops stand drought much better and
give much larger yield than when cheap
| common goods are used. The largest crops
raised in Hartford have been raised with Reck-
ord's Special Compound.
All of the best and most successful farmers
buy it because they know the BEST Is THE
CHEAPEST. They prefer it ut 80 per cent.
advance in price, because the results pay
them.
W-We are prepared to give you better SER
vice for the money than any other manufac-
turcr offering goods Our expenses are less
and our facilities better. Wewould be pleased
| to have any one visit our factory and examine
our stock before manufacture, and remain If
they desire while it is made.
We stand ready at all times to buy from our
customers their products, thereby making IL
home market for their grain, &c. We sell all
kinds of Fertilizer and Chemicals and will name
lowest price upon application.

One year ago this month the Northwestern
Masonic Aid Association, of Chicago, began To
insure lives on its Low-Rate Absolute Security
Plan. The success which has followed the i'll
PRODUCTION of this plan has been but little short
of marvellous. The new business for the year
ending August 81, 1894, exceeded that of the
preceding fiscal by Sl0,959,OOO, notwithstand-
ing the tremendous drawbacks accompanying
the financial depression which have hamp' red
every line of business. The Inference to be
drawn from this vast difference is that the plan
must possess some quality or qualities exactly
to the public's liking. What these qualities
are, are to some extent indicated by the name
OF the plan. Absolute security i'll life insur-
ance everybody wants, of course, though q
few appear to overlook this most essential
thing in mistaken efforts at econOmiZng. The
long and honorable career of the Northwestern
Masonic has proved to the public that any
method its management might adopt would
have Tor its object the perpetuation of this AS
Soclation's reputation for unqueStiOnaDle rell-
ability. The difference in cost, bearing in mind
the genuneness of the protection is, of course,
matter plainly discern BILE by Il comparison
OF rates. However, it may be stated that old
line companies rates are fifty per cent. higher
and that the rates of the Northwestern Ma
sonic are as low as it is possible to furnish gen.
uine insurance for and furnish il permanently.
