imals are kept in Daubury, during the win-

of remark that these machines are rarely

entered into the general scramble for pre-

'years. The agent in this city saw fit, how-

and notwithstanding the competion was
sharp—the Wheeler & Wilson, Grover &

plain to be seen, when the practical tests
were applied that the “plumes” must be

GENERAL AGENCY FOR THE
Ammomated Pacrfic Guano.
THE Ammonlated Pacific Guano resembles
Peruvian Guano in appearance, odor and
composition, and contains all the elements of
fertility. That which renders the Pacific Gu-
ano superior to Marian is, that while it pos-
sesses sufficient animal matter and ammonia
for all immediate stimulus, it aiso contains
nearly double the amount of soluble and bone
phosphate, which afford the crops amplé nour-
ishment, and leaves the 8’)" enriched by the
same for successive crops, which is not the
case with Peruvian guano.
We can assure the public that the Pacific
Guano is superior in point of actual value
and economy to either eruviao Guano or
Super-Phosphate of Lime, and commend it
confidently as the best and cheapest fertilizer
now offered to Farmers and Gardeners, con-
taining more Ammonia, Soluble Phosphate,
and Bone Phosphate of Lime, than any other.

The American Organs not only have the

great steadiness of tone. These with their
extreme fine voicing of the Reeds and per-
