~~ HURDLE FENCE FOR FARMERS. 
A NEW and improved fence, much superior to anything of the 
kind now in use, formed of wroughl-ii on, possessing therein an 
unusual degree of elasticity and strength; when properly constructed 
and well placed, they will endure for years and never need repair. 
The improvement consists in the mode of security. The rails or 
wires instead of the eyes used in the older kinds through which the 
bolts pass to bind and strengthen the fabric, the fence is now made in 
sectional parts with slats in the posts so arranged that when in place 
they break joints with each other. This slat in one section ex¬ 
tends upwards and in the other downwards and each rail is furnished 
with a loop or dead eye, turned on each end, which prevents it from 
passing through the slats. The usual screw is placed a distance of 
about three hundred feet apart and the entire fence may be tightened 
and prepared on the ground before it is set up. The iron clamps, foot of 
each post, are so turned as to present a flat surface of resistance to the 
earth. Price $1.50 per rod, 12^ cents additional if painted. For sale by 
the patentee agent,—where samples can be seen. A. LONGETT,

and lasting manure upon grass preceded by wheat or rye, also upon

Evergreens and ornamental trees. Reference is made to A. J. Down¬ 
ing, Esq., B. M. Watson, Plymouth, J. M. Thorburn & Co. and others 
—also to the following letter : 
Extract from a Letter of Hon. Daniel Webster, dated 
Washington, March 19, 1850. 
“If I neglect the annual purchase of some of this article, my 
gardener is sure to remind me of it. He thinks it almost indispensa¬ 
ble, within his garden fence; but there are uses, outside the garden, 
for which it is highly valuable, and cheaper, I think, than any other 
manure, at your prices. A principal one, is the enrichment of lawns 
and pleasure grounds, in grass, where the object is to produce a fresh 
and vigorous growth in the spring. Our practice is to apply it when 
we go to town in the autumn, and we have never failed to see its 
effects in the Spring.” 
Price of Poudrette $1.50 per bbl. for any number over six barrels 
—and of Poudrette for shrubs, $2.00 per bbl. for any quantity—in 
both cases delivered free of cartage on board of vessel in New-York.
