CHEAPEST AND BEST FERTILIZER. 
FOLLOW NATURE. 
Which uses GROUND LIMESTONE in making the Soil. Every Farmer can prepare his own Fertilizer with an 
ordinary Horse power by using 
FOSTER'S COMBINED CRUSHER AND PULVERISER. 
This machine takes a lump of limestone or any other mineral 3 to 5 
• inches square, and crushes it and pulverizes it at one motion to any 
required fineness without the use of burr stones ox - rollers. 
Farmers drill it or sow it just as it comes from the machine. After six 
years’ trial, ground Raw Limestone has been found to be worth 
three times as much as Burut Lime, and with this machine it does 
not cost oue-half as much to make. While Phosphate, Bone Dust and 
other Fertilizers must be renewed every one or two years, by actual 
trial Ground Raw Limestone will last four years. By burning 
LIME you destroy 40 per cent of carbonic acid, which is PLANT 
FOOD. An analysis of the Virgin Soil Blue Grass Region, Kentucky, 
shows 2,464 carbonate of lime, 0,319 phosphoric acid, or in other words. 
Nature uses EIGHT TIMES as much GROUND RAW LIMESTONE 
as Phosphates or Bone Dust in making good lands. Any farm hand 
can run the machine. It is remarkably SIMPLE and DURABLE, 
and is ready to attach to any kind of power as we ship it. The same machine answers for making macadam for Roads and 
Ballast for Railroads, by simply changing Dies. ONE, THREE and FIVE-HORSE-POWER. Price SI 90, $390, and

IMPROVED MACHINE. 
FLAX & HEMP RESTORED TO AMERICA. 
Great Impediment Removed from Flax and Hemp in the 
United States, by the Machine of the American Vegetable 
Fibre Co. Each of the Awards above named was accom¬ 
panied by the warmest approval of the Judges examining 
the Invention. The speed of its action and the complete¬ 
ness of its work, surprises all witnessess. The dependence 
on coarse hand labor, which destroyed our trade for nearly 
50 years, is now removed by the substitution of this most 
ingenious Machine, which will fill the dreary gap between 
the cultivation and manufacture of these and similar Fibres, 
and thus restore to us the. long lost “ Golden Fleece.” Illus¬ 
trated Pamphlets, giving full particulars, sent by mail on 
application to American Vegetable Fibre Co.
