—FOR—
STANDARD FERTILIZERS!
THE EARTH MADE TO GIVE FORTH ITS RICHES
Experiments have demonstrated thatiof the ten Mineral Elements which constitute the ashes
of plants, the presence ot' each and every one is essential to their perfect growth and develop
ment; and, os crops extract them annually, no laud can be permanently fertile ,
UNLESS THEY HE RESTORED TO THE SOIL.
This fact is now so patent to our farmers that thousands of tons arc annually sold in this mar
ket. Recognizing the imbortunce of this interest to our section of country, 1 have secured the
Agency of the following old and Standard Fertilizers, which the farmers are invited to cull, in
spect and priec before buying elsewhere :
OLD CAROLINA STONO SOLUBLE GUANO,
SAM AN A GUANO, CHESAPEAKE GUANO,
PALMETTO ACID, STONO ACID PHOSPHATE,
CHESAPEAKE AMMONIATED ALKALINE PHOSPHATES.
