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 as food. These elements are indispensable to- 

 the development of cultivated crops, and in supplying 

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

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

 capability of nourishing new crops. It is an invaluable 

 manure for Tobaeco and other plants requiring an early, 

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

 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.
