As this is the season of the year for nil good farmers to repair 
their-tools and lo make new ones, I would respectfully call 
their uttet ion to 
RAMSAY’S PATENT FLTXTON HARROW. 
I do this because many farmers prefer to make their own Har¬ 
rows Full particulars concerning i's merits, price of right to 
make, &c., will be furnished on application io 
HENRY M. PLATT, Sole Manufacturer. 
No. 4 Liberty-place, New-York. 
This Harrow has received first premiums in the State 
Fairs of Ohio, Pennsylvania and Connecticut. Also a Silver 
Medal from the Untied Stales Agricultural Society, and as a 
working tool has no equal. 
Extract from a letter from R. G. Wands, foreman of the New- 
York S' ale Agricultural College Farm : 
“ I must sav it surpasses all other Harrows I ever used or saw 
used, it is light audsuiianUvto rough as well as smooth ground, 
and leaves the ground in better order, with less worn, than 
any Harrow we have.

GUANO. 
We would call the attention of Guano Dealers, Planters, and 
Farmers to the article which we have on hand and for sale at 
THIRTY PER CENT LESS THAN PERUVIAN GUANO 
and which we claim to be superior to any Guano or fertilizer 
ever imported or manufactured in this country. This Guano is 
imported by WM. H WEBB, of New-York,from Jarvis’ & Ba¬ 
ker’s Islands, in the “South Pacific Ocean,” and is sold genu¬ 
ine and pure as imported. It has been satisfactorily tested by 
many of our prominent Farmers, and analyzed by the most em¬ 
inent and popular Agricultural Chemists, and found to contain 
(as will be seen by our circulars) a large per centage of Bone 
Phosphate of Lime and Phosphoric Acid , and other animal organ¬ 
ic matter, yielding ammonia sufficient to produce immediate 
abundant crops, besides substantially enriching the soil. It can 
be freely used without danger of burning the seed or plant by 
coming in contact wi ; h it, ns is the case with some other ferti¬ 
lizers; retaining a great degree of moisture, it causes the plant 
to grow in a healthy condition, and as experience has proved, 
free of insects. For orders in any quantity, (which will be 
promptly attended to.) or pamphlets containing full particulars 
of analyses and tests of farmers, apply to
