OYSTER SHELL LIME.
The Cheapest and Best Fertilizer in
Use in Georgia.
'V r GTHING In the way of a Fertilizer and
_,AI Renovator of old soils has been found
equal to PURE OYSTER SHELL LIME.
It Is not only for one year, but its good
effects are seen and continues for eight to
teu years. Lime is greatly beneficial to all
Grain Crops, applied as a top dressing, and
also to Potatoes and all root crops, and
should be applied in quantities not less
than sto 30 bushels per acre. For Compost
Heaps it is invaluable, and to the planters
of Georgia this plan of using Lime is speci
ally recommended to bring up our State to
the front rank in Agricultural matters. The
cheapness of our OYSTER SHiiLL LIME
will recommend it to every farmer who has
used fertilizers largely for the past few
years. Its value is greatly enhanced by its
long years of 'service, acting os it does for
years after its application has been forgot
ten. In soils abounding in vegetable sub
stances the manurial quality in Lime is
more fully recognized. Nitrogen abounds
in all soils of common fertility but little of
it is available— Lime unlocks this store
house of Nitrogen and renders it readily
available for plant food. A splendid and
econo i ical compost fertilizer may be made
by thoroughly mixing one bushel of salt
and three of Lin. e, and let the mixture
stand six to eight weeks bofsre using. This
is specially adapted to using in drills for
Turnips. The cheapness and facility of
procuring this wonderful renovator of the
soil ought to make it one of the iirst objects
of the farmer (who desires to improve his
land) to obtain it. Nothing in the way of a
fertilizer or renovator lias been found equal
to it, as proved by the increased yield of
crops and permanent improvement of the
soil at a cost less, by far, than any other
manure. We are prepared to furnish PURE
OYSTER SHELL LIME in ar y quantity
at $lO per toil of 2,000 pounds, free of cart
age, on cars in Port Royal, S. C
We also Rave a Compound for Prevent
ing Rot in Grapes for sale at tiO per ton.
