will at all compare with ' BAUGH'S RAW BONE PHOSPHATE ' in 

 its lasting effects, as a crop producer and permanent improver 

 of the soil." 



Messrs. Dugdale and Girvin, of Baltimore, are 

 the wholesale agents for Baugh's Raw Bone 

 Phosphate. We quote the following from their 

 circular in relation to this fertilizer : 



" In again offering to the agricultural community this well 

 known Fertilizer, it is only necessary for us to say that it is 



HIGHLY IMPROVED AND BETTER THAN EVER." 



" The basis of its manufacture is, as formerly, pure RAW 

 BONE." 



*' It has more Soluble Phosphate hence is quicker in its 

 action" 



" Although second to none, and superior to many other Ferti- 

 lizers, its price is lower than most articles of similar value" 



ANALYSIS ! 



Soluble Bone Phosphate 14-10 



Soluble in the soil 19-64 



Ammonia 3'16 



The reader will notice that the chemist's sig- 

 nature is wanting; and as no honest, capable 

 chemist would make use of such terms as " Solu- 

 ble Bone Phosphate/' or " Soluble in the soil " 

 without an explanation, the above " analysis " 

 is open to very grave suspicion. 



NOTE. One of the authors having been in the employ of 

 Messrs. Baugh & Sons for a number of years, the authors, 

 from a feeling of delicacy, forbear criticising or censuring either 

 their circular or product ; otherwise, they might do so with 

 great propriety.
