TRADE MARK, 



The Philadelphia Poudrette is an active, energetic, natu- 

 ral manure, is soluble (like barn-yard manure) without the- 

 use of acids. It coutains the aoluble aalts of plants, which 

 have served as food. These elements are indispensable to- 

 the dcTclopment of cultivated crops, and in supplyiug^ 

 these excrements t^ the soil, we return to it the constitu- 

 ents which the crops have removed from it, and renew its 

 capability of neurishiug new crops. It is an invaluable 

 manure for Tobacco and other plants requiring an early, 

 healthy start, and rapid growth, maturing them from ten to 

 fifteen days earlier. The increasing demand and uniform 

 satisfaction it has given on all crops during the past three 

 years prove it a reliable fertilizer. A profitable and high de- 

 gree of culture requires a liberal supply of manure. 

 Circulars with testimonial can be had at the ofiftce of The 

 EancaMter Farmer, and at 101 North Queen St.
