The fastest selling article in the United States. As a Potato-Bug Exterminator I challenge the world for its equal in the 
saving of time, labor, and material. Half to three quarters of a pound of London Purple or Paris Green will give an 
acre three separate dressings. You can go over four to six acres per day. A slight tap on handle discharges 3,0U0 to 5,000 
drops on each hill. For syringing fruit trees infested with canker worm or other insects it has no equal.

FERTILIZERS! 
FOR 1881. 
These formulas originated over twenty-five years ago by 
Dr. Joseph Hathaway, an eminent chemist of Boston, and 
the experiments made by him were attended with perfect 
success. Seven years since these formulas were placed in 
the hands of the Matfleld Fertilizer Co., by Dr. Hathaway, 
and during this period have been used by the farmers of 
New England and other sections, giving very great satis¬ 
faction, and many tests that have been made prove that 
the results obtained from the use of these manures for 
some crops exceed in quantity the production of the same 
crops raised with stable manure, and that they are much 
more economical to use than stable manure, is beyond 
question. 
A GENERAL FERTILIZER! 
OUR MATFIELD NO. 2. 
After repeated experiments in the hands of skilled and 
intelligent farmers for two years, we recommend to our

MANURES 
SEND POR PAMPHLET. 
These manures are the richest fertilizers 
nowmanufaetured, and the best substitute 
for, and costing much less than guano, 
which is now practically out of the mar¬ 
ket. Unlike guano, they are not stimulants 
and exhaustive, but permanent and lasting, 
being composed of hope, potash, etc. You 
can draw at one load enough for 3 to 5 
acres, or as much p!ant-fo d as is con¬ 
tained in 20 loads of ordinary manure. 
Corn, potatoes, hay, etc , are bringing such 
good prices that it will pay to use the 
Stockbridge extensively. If there is no 
local agent near you, send to us.

PHOSPHATE 
SEND FOB PAMPHLET. 
This is a true hone superphosphate, and 
may he used on any crop, in the hill or drill 
or broadcast, either with or loithout manure, 
and will produce a much earlier and larger 
crop. In the Report of the Mass. Inspector 
of Fertilizers, its valuation is from S3 to 
glO per ton higher than other Phosphates 
which sell at the same price. The past 
year over 3000 tons were sold against 100 
tons three years ago, showing that it is 
liked by the farmers. If there is no local 
agent near you, send to us.
