GENUINE 
Peruvian Guano. 
New York, September 1st, 1874. 
I have the pleasure to inform the agricultural community, 
that the Special Agency established for the Bale of Genuine 
Peruvian Gnano, In small or large lots, at the same price at 
which it may be sold by Messrs. Hobson, Hurtado & Co., the 
sole Agents of the Peruvian Government in this country, 
has met with great eucceBB so far. 
Verbal reports and numerous letters, received dally at 
this Agency, Bubject to the perusal of those interested, ex 
press entire satisfaction with the Gnano aold by me last 
Spring. Farmers and country dealers are finding out that 
the Guano Imported now, Is as good as it was until adul- 
terated by unscrupulous jobbers, In such a manner that 
many consumers were obliged to abandon its use. As, how- 
ever, the knowledge of thlB Agency has spread, they are 
availing themselves of thiB opportunity to obtain again the 
genuine article. 
By instructions of the Peruvian Government, their Agents 
here have advanced the price of Guanape Guano from this 
date to sixty-two dollars and fifty cents, ($62.50) gold, per 
ton of 2240 lbs., gross, establishing at the same time a new 
scale of discounts, the lowest being of 50c. on parcelB from 
50 to 100 tone, and the highest S1.00 on 500 tons and over. As 
usual, they will not sell in lots of less than ten tons. 
Under this new arrangement I am 
enabled to fill, orders for lots of ten 
tons and upwards, at less price than 
the Agents of the Peruvian Govern- 
ment. I will, as heretofore, supply 
quantities under ten tons at the same 
rate as charged by them. 
Full particulars given in circular mailed free on application.

The large annual increase of the sales of these Standard

dom from adulteration, with every particle available for fer-

the interest of every practical farmer to nive them a fair trial.
