To Farmers. 



THE subscriber is now prepared to receive orders for the Im- 

 proved Poudrette. It has been manufactured under the ad- 

 vice of some of the best agricultural chemists in the Country, 

 and is now commended to the public as the most certain and cheap 

 Fertilizer that can be obtained, acting favorably on all crops, 

 and on all soils. Si.x different articles are used in its composition, 

 which combined make it a perfect manure for every crop raised 

 in New England. It is finely adapted to corn, and tlis present 

 and prospective high prices of this indispensable crop, ought to 

 induce all farmers to increase the quantity planted, which they 

 can do profitably by using the Improved Poudrette. 



Prof. Mapessays of it, "no farmer using it once, will be willing 

 ever to dispense with it." I raised corn with it the past season 

 at a cost of less than 40 cts. ^ bushel. Price in Providence $1,50 

 ^ bbl., cash. It can be obtained of Messrs. PARKER & AVIIITE, 

 59 & 63 Blackstone Street, Boston.

Super-Phosphate of Lime. 



THIS celebrated Fertilizer, where it has been fairly tested the 

 last year, has been found equal, and in many cases superior 

 to the best Peruvian Guano in its immediate effect, and much 

 more permanently beneficial to the land. It is adapted to any 

 soil in which there is a deficiency o{ P/iosplintf, which is often 

 the case. All crops are benefited by its application. It is com 

 posed of ground bone, decomposed by sulphuric acid, to which is 

 added a due proportion of Peruvian Guano, Sulphate of Am 

 monia, &?. 



For sale, with full directions for use, in bags of 150 pounds 

 each. No charge for package. All bags will be branded "C. B. 

 DeBurg, No. 1 Super-Phosphate of Lime."
