SOUTHERN CULTIVATOR. 
FERTILIZERS. 
riTHERTO the Planters of the South have been dependent on the 
North for all the artificial fertilizers they have used The N ew 
Orleans Bone Black Company recently established in this city, \yith 
facilities for the manufacture of manures seeond to * 
States, are prepared to fill orders for the following FERIILIZbRS at 
’^he same prices charged in Baltimore and New York : 
GROUND BONES.— For fruit trees and grape vines these are par- 
ticularly beneficial Five hundred pounds applied to an acre of ordin- 
ary pine woodland, aided bv good, deep plowing, will produce acrop 
of Cotton as large as any of the best bottom lar ds. It is ground both 
fine and coarse, and is put up in barrels. The coarse is 1}^c per 
pound— the fine and sifted, per pound. Its great durability m 
;he soil renders it the cheapest manure in use. 
PHOSPllATED GUANO.— This valuable fertilizer, composed of 
equal parts of Peruvian Guano and fine Bone Dust, is, in every re- 
spect, superior and far more lasting than Guano used by itself. It is 
an established fact that Guano lac-s Phosohate of Lime, and, also, 
that one half of its fertilizing qualities are dissipated in the air, which 
is plainly to be perceived by the strong ammoniacal smell constant- 
ly emitted by it untill its strength is gone. , . • u 
Bone Dust is nothing more than Phosphate of L me, and this, be- 
sides being a strong and valuable manure, fixes the Ammonia in the 
Guano and retai' s it until it is absorbed by the plants. A trial of this 
fertilizer will satisfy any one of its durability and superior efiicacy to 
simple Guano. Three hundred pounds applied to the acre will show 
its effects for fiv'e years or more, by an annual increase of at least 10 
percent, in the crops. Put up in barrels of about 200 pounds each, 
at 2 cents per pound. . . i 
SUPER-PHOSPHATE OF LIME.— Tbis highly concentrated ma- 
nure is composed of Animal Matter, Sulphuric Acid, Bone Dust, Gyp- 
sum and Sulphate of Iron, each of which, by itself, is a powerful fer- 
^F?ve hundred pounds, or about two barrels of this Super -Phosphate 
of Lime have been found to be fully equal, in beneficial effects, to 
thirty wagon loads of ord'nary Stable Manure. 
The convenience of this article consists in its small bulk and con- 
sequent ease of handling. It may be used before or after planting of 
the crop. A tablespoonful put in each hih of Corn or Cotton, has 
been known to increase the yield twenty per cent. Five hundred lbs. 
to an acre of common piuey woods land having a clay subsoil, will en- 
able it“ to yield as good a crop as any ordinary bottom land. A 
6in<^le hundred pound applied as a top-dressing to an acre of meadow 
land, will increase its products at least a ton of hay. To Horticu- 
turists, it is invaluable, as it may be applied to Fruit Trees at any 
season of the year. More than two thousand bushels of Ruta Baga 
Turnips have been raised to the acre, by the application of 200 lbs. 
of this fertilizer. For Garden crops, it is all that is necessary for 
**^^116 Super-Phosphate of Lime is put up in barrels containing about 
200 pounds, and is sold at 2 cents per pound. • 
POUDRETTE. — Two large establishments in New York, turning 
out over fifty thousand barrels annually, are not able to supply the de- 
mand of the market gardeners in the vicinity of that city for this justly 
popular manure. It is composed of night soil, deodorized and made 
into a powder similar to Guano, and is put up in barrels at $2.50 per 
barrel. , , ..

PLANTATION FOR SALE. 
I OFFER for sale, my PLANTATION, situated in Marengo county, 
Ala., nine nules south of Demopolis. The place is very produc- 
tive in corn, cotton and small grain, and the soil being very rich in 
lime, I think it would produce clover admirably. I have just seeded 
30 acres, on which there is a beautiful stand of young clover. The 
plantation is healthy, has an abundance of stock water in every 
field, and offers great advantages to any one wishing to raise stock 
of every kind Belonging to and adjoining the plantation, is a large 
tract of heavily timbered pine land. There is, on the place, a horse- 
power Saw Mill, which will cut from 1201* to 1500 feet of lumber per 
day, which can be made to pay handsomely, as the demand for lum- 
her greatly exceeds the supply. 
My residence is 2)^ miles from the plantation, healthy, convenient to 
churches and schools and in a thickly populated neighborhood. The 
dwelling contains 8 rooms; all necessary outbuildings; a very large and 
rich garden; plenty of good water ; pasturage and fire wood con- 
venient. The whole contains 1650 acres— 9' 0 or 1,000 cleared, and 
under fence. As I am determined to move from this section, I will 
sell a great bargain to any one for cash, or negotiable paper, bearing 
8 per cent, interest. I would like to sell stock of all kinds, corn, fod- 
der, oats, &c., at the same time. 
I made on the plantation, last year, seven bales of cotton to the 
hand, and corn to do the plantation, and the seasons were anything 
but propitious. The titles are clear and indisputable, and the whole 
may be bought at the extremely low price of Twelve Thousand Dol- 
lars. t 
My post office is Spring Hill, Marengo county, Ala., where letters, 
post-paid, will ’ eceive prompt attention. Iwl take great pleasure 
in showing the place to those wishing to purchase.

Augusta, Ga., April 3, 1865. 
I have been running one of Scott' 6 Little Giant Com and Cob 
A/iZZs, A’b. 4. for ihe last five weeks, and it performs to my entire 
satisfaction It was warranted to grind 20 bushels per hour, but I 
have ground over 35 bushels in an hour and a half, or equal to 23^ 
bushels per hour. In feeding 80 horses, I save at least loO bushels of 
Corn per month, it now requiring only 200 bushels of Corn with the 
cob, where I formerly fed 8iM). I consider it decidedly the best kind 
of Crusher ever got up, and if I could not replace mine I would not 
sell it for $500. I- D MATHEWS,
