Farmersl Look to Your Interest,"

Use nothing but reliable phosphates
for your future crops.
Use phosphates which have been
tested and proven for the past twenty
years, and have turned out what we
claimed themto be; honest and reliable.
Our aim has been to improve our
brands Of phosphates along this line,
aud their popularity to-day is eKcelied
by none.
Our trade has grown from a few
tors of oUi 4Gt in 1882, to the present Of
several thousand tons output each year,
showing to the people that they get
what they bought. This, therefore, is
the reason our trade has increased each
year SINCE we commenced the manU-
faeture Of phosphate.
We have the very latest improved
machinery, and can put the materials
used in manufacture into unifor4h con-
ditioR, so that it will give the best re-
suits.
Before placing your order for your
phosphate this spring, it will he well
to write, or call upon us in person, for
prices.
We keep constantly on hand all the
high grades OF phosphate materials,
and our prices are low, when you take
into consideration the quality of the
goods.
For wheat, corn and grass, use
"Jumbo" phosphate, which has stood !
the test for % years, and given the
farmers value received.
For cantelOupes, watermelOns, cab.
bage, beans, etc., use cur "High-Grade
Truck Phosphate" which is particu-
lsrly rich in nitrogen.
For top dressing Of strawberries, use
our Especial Mixture" 1t has proven
lst the goods for them, and those who
have tried it are well pleased with the
results.
For sweet potatoes use our Especial
Potato Phosphate" which is especially
made for this crop. 1t has proven be-
you'd question to be the vely goods to
use to get a large yield Of fine bright
potatoes.
For all general crops, use our "FIsh

Monkey LanEuaRe.

It is generally supposed that Profess
or Garner is the first man to study
what has come to be called the speech
Of monkeys AS a matter Of fact. the
honor belongs to Sir Richard Burton.
the famous orientalist, who translat-
ed the Thousand and One Nights. 4"
Lady Burton tells in her biography OF
her distinguished husband that Sir
Richard believed firmly in monkey
speech. that he had forty apes con-
tinually with him for several years
and that he had written down a mon
key vocabulary of sixty words. This
vocabulary unfortunately was lost.
Professor Garner can make a strange
monkey drink by saying a certain
word, and with another word he can
make it eat. and with another word he
can frighten it. But Sir Richard Bur
ton could do all these things too. His
vocabulary. furthermore, was larger
than that Of Professor Garner Ernst
Haeckel. the great German scientist.
is in hearty sympathy with the study
Of the monkey language. He says he
believes firmly. that such language ex-
lists.
