Double Refined Poudrktte for sale in 
lots to suit customers. This article is sold 
for half the price of other fertilizers, and is 
cheaper for Cotton, Corn, Tobacco, and 
Vegetables, than any other in the market. 
Price, delivered on board in New York City. 
$25 per ton. I ask attention to tile follow¬ 
ing testimonials: 
Thomas W. Latham, Providence Co., R. I., writes - “I 
would rather have your Double-refined Don dr e tie than any 
M iate I ever used. Where I used it on Potatoes it was 
:ad of any other manure.” 
Mr. Howard, New London Co., Ct., writes: “ I can fully 
recommend your Double-Refined Poudrette as being the 
best fertilizer in use for Corn, Potatoes, and Tobacco. I 
have tested it side by side with other manures, and the Pou¬ 
drette lias always proved the best. ’ 
Mr. Allanson, Oneida Co., N. Y., writes: “For several 
years past I have used your Poudrette for Corn. Potatoes, 
and Garden Vegetables, and I have realized on the first crop 
one hundred per cent for all the money invested. 
S. J. Kelly, Burlington Co., N. J., writes: “I used 
Double-refined Poudrette on Rutabaga Turnips alongside 
of Peruvian Guano and Hen Manure. Where the Pou¬ 
drette was applied, the increase was thirty per cent over 
the others." 
Milton Strong, Suffolk Co., N. Y„ writes: “ I gave Pou. 
drette a thorough trial this year, using it upon Corn, Pota¬ 
toes, Lima Beans, Tomatoes, and Vines, and I have never 
raised better crops. My Corn will yield 100 bushels of ears 
per acre, and my garden was the surprise and admiration of 
all who saw it.” 
Henry T. Horton, Cheshire Co., N. FT., writes: “ I find, 
from experiments made last year, the Double-refined Pou¬ 
drette is tlie cheapest fertilizer to use on Tobacco. I put it 
beside Peruvian Guano with equal cost of both, and the 
Tobacco was 30 per cent better where 1 used Poudrette.”

plication to JAMES T. FOSTER,

Gf-EWUINE ’ 
Peruvian Guano. 
In Large or Small ^Quantities. 
Last year I sold genuine Guano at tlie same price as 
charged by the Agents of the Peruvian Government, adding 
a very small commission, as a compensation for my services. 
This year, owing to the more liberal discount allowed to 
purchasers of large quantities, l am enabled to sell not only 
at the same price, without commission, in lots of 1 to 5 tons, 
but even cheaper, when in quantities of 6 tons and upward. 
Parties in want of small quantities will find it economical 
to club together, and buy in lots of ten tons, on which there 
is a saving in price and cartage.

The large annual increase of the sales of these Standard 
Fertilizers is the best proof of their merits. Their free¬ 
dom from adulteration, with every particle available for fer¬ 
tilizing, and tlie low price at which they are sold make it for 
the interest of every practical farmer to give them a fair trial.

CLUDED TO OFFER THEIR CELEBRATED 
AZOTIN 
at retail in lots to suit consumers, for tlie purpose of more 
generally introducing to public notice this extraordinary 
cheap arid powerful Manure. It is not a NEW THING—For 
four years it h -s been used in this Country and in England, 
by manufacturers of high grade Super-Phosphates, ns an 
Ammoniate superseding Peruvian Guano almost entirely, on 
account of cheapness and safety. For while it contains as 
large a percentage of Ammonia as Guano now imported 
from Peru, it is in a different form, not being caustic and 
injurious to plants or roots with which it. may come in con¬ 
tact. We claim to have tlie unqualified endorsement of tlie 
leading Chemists in the country, as also of the manufactur¬ 
ers of tlie best, and highest grade Super Phosphates, and 
refer to the letters published in our pamphlet, sent free to
