KEEP DRY. N.Y.

SEVERAL IMITATIONS of this celebrated fertilizer having been introduced among the dealers since the introduction of the _Improved Super-Phosphate of Lime_, I beg to state that all manufactured under the recipe of Prof. J. J. Mapes, is

MARKED ON THE BAGS AS ABOVE,

and each bag contains his certificate of having been made under his superintendence.

THE UNIVERSAL CULTIVATOR,

Described on page 254,

Is represented in the above cut. It is manufactured by us, and is sold by all implement dealers.

OUR

IMPROVED HORSE HOE,

Of which a cut may be seen on p. 254,

Is now manufactured at our establishment, and is sold throughout the Union. It is the best implement for weeding, etc. ever made.

THE SOD AND SUB-SOIL PLOW,

(Sometimes called the MICHIGAN PLOW,)

Consists of two plows on the same beam. The first inverts the sod to the depth of a few inches, and the hindmost plow brings up the lower soil, depositing it on the inverted sod.

FOR DEEP TILLAGE, especially on prairie land, this is superior to any of its competitors.
