MARCH 4, IS40. 



IIIIATE AND POtlDRETTE. 



The Company known in the City of New York hy the 

 name of " Thk Nkw Vohk Uraie and Pouprettk Com- 

 PANV" lias heen incorporated hy the Legislature ofthe Stale 

 of New Jersey, hy an Act, entitled " An Act to Incorporate 

 'The I.odi .^Ia vOfactortso Company,'" for purposes of 

 Agriculture— with n Capita! of 20U0 Shares, each Share 

 SlOU, being equal to a Capital of S200,00U. 



A Pampniet has heen puhlijhed containing particulars and 

 very important information to I*'armers and Gardeners, a 

 Copy of whicji may he seen at this OfEcr, or procured from 

 A. Dey, No. ri, Cedar st,, New Vorl;. 



The particular attention of the reader is requested to the 

 following particulars: 



1st. A Suhscripiinn for a part of the Stock of " The Lnni 

 Manufactubing Company,'' will he open at the house of 

 Moses Miller, keeper ofthe Eagle Hotel, in Jersey City, op- 

 posite the City of New York, on Wednesday and Thursday, 

 the 8th and 9th days of April, 1840, from lii o'clock in the 

 forenoon until 3 o'clock in the alternoon ol each day, and the 

 payment id' S25 on each Share will lie required to he paid at 

 the time of suhscribing, (either in Specie, or in Bank Bills 

 of Specie paying Banks.) See Section No. i of the Ad of 

 Incorporation. 



It may he, if the whole 1500 shares shall be suhscribeil 

 for, that notiiing more than the 825 may be called in upon 

 this Stock ; hut if any jierson chooses to pay the \v'hole 

 amount, he will draw dividends accordingly. 



2d. If 500 Shares shall he subscribed for, on the Sth and 

 9lh days of April, 1840, an(/ it is vow ascertained they icilt 

 be, a further subscription of 500 Shares by J^armer^ cral^ 

 Gardeners exclusively, will be opened at the "Office of Dry 

 & Elmendrof, No ri, Cedar street, in the city of New York, 

 and be continued open 60 days, commencing on Mr^i'day the 

 13lh April, 1840, from 10 o'clock in the forenoSi .-i;i'lil 3 

 o'clock in the afternoon of each week day, and ;tG continue 

 open until the 20lh day of .J'lne inclusive, or tintfl the v. hole 

 of the said 500 Shares snail be suhscrihed for; as soon as 

 these 500 Shares shall he suhscrib'jd for, the books will be 

 closed. The Dividend on these SilO Shares is to l>e 50 luisli- 

 els of Poudrette to each Share, for 5 years, which is equal to 

 20 per cent, per annum, so that at the end of 6 years they 

 will have received back their whole money. See Section 

 No. 6. 



The object of the Company in procuring Stockholders is 

 to procure consumers, and therefore they prefer Farmers and 

 Gardeners to subscribe one Share of the reserved Stock, 

 rather than five shares to which each is entitled, and it is 

 believed the other 1600 Shares of the Stock ofthe Company 

 will turn out equally valuable, but then thare is no autlioiity 

 given by law to the Company to guarantee that 20 percent 

 shall he pgid in Poudrette. It is expected that thr; Divi- 

 dends on this reserved Stock will be made, half in May and 

 half in September, in each year, and therefore the whole 

 amount ofthe reserveil Stock, say 3100 each Share, must be 

 paid for at the time of suhscribing. 



3d. Persons disposed to subscribe, may authorise any per- 

 son to do so for them as follows ; 



"I ofthe Town of in the County of 



and State of , Farmer, (or (gar- 

 dener as the case may be,) do hereby authorise 



to subscribe my name for Shares ofthe Stock of 



the Lodi Manufacturing Company, and pay the monies re-, 

 quired to be paid at the time of subscription. 



Witness niy hand this day of. . ,. _ .-ISiO. 



Witness Present, i 



The subscribers are not held responsible to pay any thing 

 beyond the payment required at the time of subscribing. 



Any number of Farmers in one neighborhood may author- 

 ize one of their number or any other person to subscribe for 

 them. 



4th. Agencies.— A number of Persons have already been 

 appointed as Agents in different parts of the United States. 

 The Company allow Agents a commission of 8 per cent for 

 their trouble, on the uetl amount ofthe cost of the Poudrette 

 By the Cth Section of the Act. Farmers and Gardeners ex- 

 clusively are secured the preference of a bonus equal to 

 S45,500 over any other consumers. They are secured an an- 

 nual dividend of 50 Bushels of Poudrette lor every 100 dol- 

 lars they invest in the reserved 500 shares of the Stock of 

 the Company, which at the price the Company have sold 

 and are selling the manures, gives a dividend of 20 per cent, 

 per annum for 5 years; after which they divide equally %ith 

 the other Stockholders It is believed, tov/ever, from data 

 which have been furnished ii/ a pamphlet, that the dividends 

 on all the slock will not be less than 20 perce.il. per annum. 

 One cent's worth, under iha provision ofthe Cth Section, 

 will manure 10 hills of corn. One gill of Poudrette to each 

 hill of corn in 1839, ripened corn in three months from the 

 time it was planted, so far as to render it too hard to eat as 

 green corn, v/hich would save it from destructive effects of 

 an early frost- 

 But one of the greatest advantages that Poudrette has over 

 every other manure, is the saving of labor in its iranspona- 

 lion to the farm and its application to the soil. The saving 

 is one half in the amount of cost, labor and expenses attend- 

 ing the same. 



Any Farmer in moderate circumstances who loans his 

 money at 6 per cent, interest per annum, may lake one share 



in the stock of the Company which would cost him SlOO, 

 and receive a dividend of 50 Bushels of Poudrette which 

 would cost him 12 cents per Bushel, and will do bis land 

 and crop more good than 50 loads of the best horse manure, 

 that would cost him S50, besides the labor and expense of 

 carting and putting it on the land- 



If any person wishes further information on the subject, 

 they will jilease apply to ANTHONY DEY, either in per- 

 son or by Letter, directed to him at his office, No 71 Cedar 

 street. New York.
