MORE than 13 years of regular use upon all description of 
Crops grown in tne Middle and Southern States, lias given a 
high degree of popularity to this MANURE, which places 
its application now entirely beyond a mere experiment. 
BATJGH'S R_*VW BONE 
SUPER PHOSPHATE OF LOIE, 
Is eminently a success as a Substitute for Peruvian Guano 
and Stable Manure— and is offered to the Agriculturists of 
the Northern and Eastern States as a fertilizer that will 
cheaply restore to the Soil those essentials which have been 
drained from it by constant cropping and light manuring. 
IT is very prompt in its action — is lasting in effect to a de- 
gree unattained by any commercial manure in the market, 
and is afforded at a much less cost than bought Stable Ma- 
nure, or Peruvian Guano. The Labor involved in its use is 
far less than that of applying stable manure, while there is 
no risk from the introduction of noxious weeds. 
G3?~ Farmers arc recommended to purchase of the dealer 
located in their neighborhood. In sections where no dealer 
Is yet established, the Phosphate may be procured directly 
from the undersigned. A Priced Circular will be sent to all 
who apply. 
Our NEW PAMPHLET— "Bote to Maintain the Fertility 
of American Farms,'"— 90 pages, giving fall information in 
regard to the use of manure, &c, will be furnished gratis on

"We conceive that an elementary work on the Vine, to 
possess the highest practical value to the amateur, as well as 
the gardener and vinevardist, should treat of all the facts 
and principles involved in the subject, laying them, clearly, 
in order before the student, and linking them together with 
just so much of the theory as is necessary to explain lucidly 
their relations to each other, and unite them in the mind of 
the student in one harmonious and systematic whole. This 
is what we have aimed to accomplish In the present work, 
indulging in no theorizing speculations, and introducing 
nothing of doubtful verification. We have given a simple 
record of our own practice and experience, stating no fact 
that we have not repeatedly verified, and which may not be 
repeated bv others with like results. "We have striven to 
make it a safe guide to all. 
Although Grape Culture, and especially "Wine Making, are 
yet in their infancy in this country, the principles and condi- 
tions upon which success depends are so well established, 
that, if we walk In the full lisht of the knowledge we have, 
we need tread no doubtful path. Though our work is strict- 
ly elementary, we have by no means intended to make it in 
any degree superficial, and we have, therefore, labored to 
leave no important practical question unsolved; indeed, 
some points, rhat have heretofore been entirely neglected or 
very briefly noticed, are here treated with a degree of min- 
uteness somewhat commensurate with their importance, as 
will be seen, among others, in the chapters on "Varieties," 
" Ripening,'' and " Taste." 
The engravings are so true to life, and so admirably exe- 
cuted, that they may be said, in some sense, to present a trea- 
tise in themselves, from which may be obtained a good 
knowledge of the operations to be performed, as well as the 
manner of doing them.
