T HE ATTENTION OF FARMERS is 
requested to a new FERTILIZER, prepared from the 
night soil collected from the sinks and privies of New-York 
city, by the LODI MANUFACTURING COMPANY, and 
manufactured without any adulteration whatever, into a pow¬ 
erful manure—something like guano, but less caustic and less 
exhausting to the soil. It is called 
T AFE U, 
from the Chinese word signifying prepared night soil, and is the 
qnly article of the kind ever manufactured in this country. It 
is warranted to be 95 per cent pure night soil; and from its 
ease of transportation and application, and the small quantity 
required to produce the same result as heavier manures, it is 
the CHEAPEST MANURE ever offered for sale. For grass in 
the fall, for winter grain, or for garden vegetables, it has no 
equal. 
From 300 to 600 lbs. per acre is all the dressing required for 
the poorest soils. A fair trial in competition with other ma¬ 
nures is respectfully asked. Packed in barrels of 240 lbs., or bags 
of 125 lbs. Price $35 per tun, or \\ cts. perlb., delivered free of 
cartage on board of vessels or railroads in the city of New-York.

No. 60 Courtlandt-st., New-York.
