IRISH PEAT CHakCOaL. 

 TO FARMERS, A» RICULTtfRISTS, AND OTHERS. 



THE IRISH AMELIORATION SOCIETY beg to 

 ^^ draw -he attention of the public generally to the fertilising 

 and deodorising properties of Irish Pe it Charcoal , Mixed with 

 night-soil or sewage m er it instantly an 1 wholly destroys all 

 offensive smell, renders it easy of manipulation, adapts the fer- 

 tilising properties as a ready food for plants, and enables it to 

 be transported by Railway or any other conveyance without 



the slightest inconvenience. 



The extent to which Charcoal (carbon) enters into the com- 

 posiri m <-f every article of agricultural produce, and the value 

 of night-soil as a manure, render any observations on these 

 points unnecessary. Mixed with uigrK-soil, in about equal 

 wt i-hts, a most efficacious manure is produced a: a very small 



cost. 

 Price of the Charcoal, ready for use, at Dublin, exclusive of 



sacks, 35s. per ton ; in London, Liverpool, Bristol, and other 

 seaports in England 48s. per ton, exclusive of sacks; or 60s.
