POIIDRETTE. 



Improvements of such a nature have been mode in the 

 manufacture of Poiidrcite, by the Lodi Manufacluring Co., 

 near the city of New Vork. as lo warrant the opinion, that 

 it is the cheapest and best manure now known and m use. 

 By experiments which have been made il has been proved 

 that its fructifying powers have been greally increased ; it8 

 operation upon vegetable mailer quickened. Il will obviate 

 thy effects of severe drought and will retniiv its fertilizing 

 uiinliiies much longer than any Poudrelte heretofore made. 

 It will ripen corn in 66 days, lit for use. Ihe price will be 

 reduret/ the following season, as /dllows. At the factory it 

 will be sold in bulk, at tlie rate of 25 cents per bushel. It 

 will be delivered at any wharl or place in the city of New 

 Vork, free of cartage and olher expense, at the rate of J2for 

 I bbl. which conlafiis 4 bushels; S3 50 for 2 barrels ; S5 for 

 3 barrels, and 810,50 lor 7 barrels, and al Ihe rale of *1,50 

 per barrel lor any larger quantity. Persons wishing the ar- 

 ticle, will please'give notice in due season, as the orders will 

 be luUilleil in the order of time received. The Co. was in- 

 corporated ill February, 1840, for 30 years, by the Legislatui;e 

 of New .lersey. No liabiliiy to stockholders beyond their 

 subscription of SlOO per share. A few shares of what is 

 called the " Reserved Slock," remain lobe subscribed for, 

 which Ihe company guarantee shall pay a dividend of 50 

 bushels of Poudrelte a year on each share, as authorized by 

 the charter. A pamphlet containing instructions for its use 

 and all other necessary inlormation, is in preparation and 

 will be sent gratis soon alter the first of January next, to 

 any person applying for it, post paid. Agents have been, or 

 will be appointed in most of tlie important places in the 

 Eastern and Northern Stales, lo wluun persons may give
