DE BURG’S 
NO. 1 
AMMOIIATED SUPE RPHOSPHATE. 
WASSISANTEO GENUINE. 
BEWARE of unscrupulous experimenters and 
imitators of the above now acknowledged reliable 
Fertilizer. 
The Subscriber tenders his sincere thanks for 
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, 
\lW 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 be 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 forwarded, on 
application to the Subscriber,

It is light, easily managed, strong, durable—adjustable and free 
from side draft. Has 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 he raised instantly to 
pass obstructions, always ready tomiove 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.

GREAT LABOR SAVING MA¬ 
CHINE. 
A new contrivance of great value to Farm¬ 
ers generally has just been invented by Ja¬ 
red A. Ayres of the Deaf and Dumb Insti¬ 
tute at Hartford, Conn. This apparatus, ap¬ 
plied to any ordinary well, renders it equiv¬ 
alent to a living spring, so that cattle, 
horses, sheep, or any other animal, large or 
small, will at any time draw for themselves 
a full supply of water. The same apparatus 
is applicable to ordinary house wnlls.so that 
a woman or child can draw water by simply 
ascending the steps to the well curb. 
{EsP 5 * The whole apparatus is simple, du¬ 
rable, cheap, and everywhere applicable. 
A full description may be obtained with¬ 
out expense, by addressing 
HENRY A. DYER, 
Hartford, Conn. 
N.B.—The Patent Rights for several of 
the states, and also for counties, will be sold 
at a reasonable price.
