 operation upon vegetable matter quickened. It will obviate 

 the effects of severe drought and will retain its fertilizing 

 qualities much longer than any Poudrelte heretofore made. 

 It will ripen corn in 66 days, fit for use. The price will be 

 7'ef/(/ce(/ the followin-.; season, as follows. At the factory it 

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