CELEBRATED FERTILIZERS. 
Pure Bone Superpliospliate of Lime. 
GROUND BONE, BONE MEAL, BONE FLOUR. 
The large annual increase ot' the salesof these Standard 
fertilizers is the best proof of their merits. Their free¬ 
dom from adulteration, with every particle available for fer¬ 
tilizing, and the low price at which they are sold make it for 
the interest of every practical farmer to give them a fair trial.

GENUINE 
Peruvian Guano. 
In Large or Small Quantities. 
Desirous of extending the use of such a valuable, and al¬ 
most indispensable fertilizer, as Peruvian Guano has be¬ 
come t® the Agricultural Community of all countries where 
it has been tried, and finding that the freight to distant 
places is rather high, I have decided to reduce my price still 
further from what I quoted in my last circular, so that now 
Planters. Farmers, and Dealers, have an opportunity to buy 
the genuine or pure article at a lower rate than they could 
obtain t from Messrs. Hobson, Hurta o & Co., the Agents of 
the Peruvian Government in this country. The more liberal 
discount allowed this year to purchasers of large quantities 
enables me to do this, as I buy enough at a time to obtain 
the largest discount, which I propose to divide with my 
customer in proportion to their orders; wheieas the agents 
cannot deviate from their present established scale of prices 
and discounts.

Double Refined Poudrette 
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 Fork City, 
$25 per ton. I ask attention to the follow¬ 
ing testimonials: 
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." 
Milton Strong, Suffolk Co., N. Y., writes: “ I gavePon- 
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. H„ writes: “I find, 
from experiments made last year, the Double-refined Pou¬ 
drette is the 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.”
