NO. 1 
AMM0IIATED SUPE RPHOSPHATE. 
warranted genuine. 
BEWARE of unscrupulous experimenters and 
imitators of the above now acknowledged reliable 
Fertilizer. 
The Subscriber tenders his sincere thanks lor 
the liberal support he has received from the Agri¬ 
cultural community for the past six years, and 
further assures his patrons no exertions shall be 
wanted on his part to merit their continued sup¬ 
port, by supplying them with a uniform article. 
Perhaps one of the best proofs of the value of 
his compound, is the greatly increased demand, 
;g==-- %= unprecedented in the history of Fertilizers, and 
not equaled by Guano itself. As there are a large 
number of Superphosphates in market, for the 
value of which he would not like to he responsi¬ 
ble, he earnestly requests all purchasing, to be 
careful to get the genuine article from himself, or 
his accredited agents, to whom he holds himself 
responsible for its good character. 
The increasing demand for this favorite Fertil¬ 
izer still continues. Six years scrupulous trial, 
on all soils, and in all States, places its success, as 
a Fertilizer, beyond all problem. 
Analysis and testimonials will be forwaided, on 
application to the Subscriber,

CHINES, with the latest Improvements, are now ready

kind yet invented lhat has fully met the wants of the farmers. 
It is light, easily managed, strong, durable—adjustable and free 
from side draft. Hus a Reel, without which no Mower or 
Reaper is perfect—will not clog in any kind of grass. Can be 
worked by either horses or oxen. Has a Lever at the side of 
the driver’s seat, by which the Knife can be raised instantly to 
pass obstructions, always ready to move from field to field on its 
own wheels—works well on any ground free from obstructions, 
and in all kinds of fine grass where nearly all other Mowers 
fail. Can in one minute be changed from Mower to Reaper, 
and is warranted to cut grass or grain at the rate of one acre per 
hour as well as can be done with a scythe or cradle.

E©* 3 ’ Beware of adulterated or damp Guano, and of all other 
Fertilizers that can be mixed or depreciated without detection. 
The demand for Auificial and Commercial Fertilizers is now 
so large in the United States, that it is becoming a great object 
to adulterate them. This has been done to so large an extent 
in England, as to have called for the most stringent measures 
for the exposure of rascality and the protection of farmers.

NEW AND IMPROVED POUDRETTE, 
Manufactured from the night soil of New-York city, in lots to 
suit purchasers. This article (greatly improved within the last 
two years) has been in the market for eighteen years, and still

bles, being cheaper , more powerful than any other , and at the 
same time free from disagreeable odor. Two barrels ($3 worth) 
will manure an acre of corn in the hill, will save two thirds in 
labor, will cause it to come up quicker, grow faster, ripen 
earlier, and will bring a larger crop on poor ground than any 
other fertilizer, and is also a preventive of the cut worm : 
also, it does not injure the seed to be put in contact with it. 
The L. M Co. point to their long standing reputation, and 
the large capital ($ 100 , 000 ,) invested in their business, as a 
guarantee that the article they make shall always be of such
