CHEAPEST AND BEST FERTILIZER.—FOLLOW NATURE. 
Which USES GROUND RAW LIMESTONE IN MAKING THE SOIL. 
There were no Lime Kilns around burning Lime when the good Lime¬ 
stone Farming Lands were originally made. Every Farmer can 
prepare his own Fertilizer with an ordinary Horse Rower by using 
FORSTER’S COMBINED CRUSHER & PULVERIZER, 
which tabes a lump of Limestone three to live inches square, and crushes 
and Pulverizes it in one operation, same as Burrs. Farmers use the 
Ground Raw Limestone, and drill and sow it just as it comes from this 
machine. W. W. Reed, of Erie, lias tried it (i years, and says “ it shows a 
profit over Bone Dust of $1.96 per acre ; over Phosphate of $4.28 per acre; 
over Guano of $9.70 per acre ; over Salt of $5.90 per acre, and that it- 
will last twice as long.” —John G. Bear, of Montgomery, Lycoming'; 
Co., says: “I believe it to be the cheapest and best Fertilizer in this- 
counfry. It is worth three times as much as Burnt Lime, and with this - 
Machine does not cost half as much as Burnt Lime to make.”—II. C. 
Falls, New Castle, Pa., says : “ I used the Ground Limestone last year with great satisfaction as to results, and cannot too 
strongly recommend it for farm and garden purposes. Where I dropped my corn on top of it, the corn came up first, and 
was strong and thrifty—the Limestone drawing the moisture to the roots. Used in place of Paris Green on Potatoes, it 
kept the Bugs away and made the plants thrifty and strong; being washed into the ground it benefited the Potatoes in 
an astonishing maimer. Address only, TOTTEN «fc CO., Pittsburgh, Pa. ONLY MAKERS. 
MANURES 
SEND POR PAMPHLET. 
These manures are the richest fertilizers 
nowmanufactured, 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 bone, potash, etc. You 
can draw at one load enougli for 3 to 5 
acres, or as much plant-food as is con¬ 
tained ill 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.

If or broadcast, either with ox without manure, 
and will produce a much earlier and larger 
1 crop. In tiie Reportof the Mass. Inspector 
of Fertilizers, its valuation is from S3 to 
glOperton 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
