ally, and has the most extensive works of the kind in Great Britain, which have
been in operation 21 years. The Langdale, therefore, has a good pedigree and is no
experiment.
It contains a larger proportion of chemical elements suited for the promotion
of vegetable life, anil especially of eotton. than any other fertilizer offered in the
South. It is the best and safest Cotton Manure in the market.
The analysis given with the Manure when sold will he guaranteed. There shall
be no mistake about the genuineness of the article, nor the good faith of the vendors
It is the cheapest Manure offered, as it contains nothing but what is of use in
becoming plant-food, or by chemical action on the soil, producing the same. The
test of cheapness is not tho price, but the actual worth of the article purchased.
Low-priced Manure cannot contain efficient quantities of pure and valuable chemi
cals, which can alone give worth to a fertilizer, and bring satisfactory results. The
Langdale is a3 low in price as is consistent with tho use of the best ingredients, and
a fair commercial profit on its cost.
Tlio employment of powerful machinery in mixing and pulverizing the ingre
dients prepares every particle for service, and prevents trouble in using. The Lang-
dalo is unequalled in this respect, and impresses every one who sees it as a perfectly
manipulated Manure.
In its composition and preparation it is the result of careful scientific research
and experiment, confirmed by practical application for a quarter of a century. It
will be maintained at its present high standard, and is thus what planters have
lon«v wanted—a thoroughly reliable ami safe Manure.
