MANURE 
SEND POR PAMPHLET. 
These manures are the richest fertilizers 
now manufactured, 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 
aud exhaustive, bat permanent and lasting, 
being Composed of bone, potash, etc. You 
can draw at one load enough for 3 to 5 
acres, or as much plant-food 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.

liked by the farmers. If there is no local
