TRADE MARK. 



The Philadelphia Poudrette is an active, energetic, natu- 

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

 use of acids. It contains the soluble salts of plants, which 

 have served ae food. These elements are indispensable to 

 the development of cultivated crops, and in supplying 

 these excrements tt the soil, we return to it the constitu- 

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

 capability of neurishing new crops. It is an invaluable 

 manure for Tobaero and other i-lants requiring an early, 

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

 fifteen days earlier. The increasing demand and uniform 

 satisfaction it has given on all crojis during the past three 

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

 gree of culture requires a liberal supply of manure. 

 Circulars with testimonial can be had at the office of The 

 EaiiouMler Farnior, and at 101 North Queen St.
