Farmers, Read This! BLACK'S Improved Fertilizer! WE invite the attention of Farmers to the cheapness and excellence of Black's IMPROVED FERTILIZER. It can be made on the farm, by any sensible man, at a cost of | ??lO PER TON, and wo warrant it to give satisfaction. It will mature a crop as ehrly as the best Guano, which is so expensive that the farmer frcquent l.v has nothing left after paying for it. The certificates given us by those who have used it warrant us in presenting it to the public, not as an untried experiment, but as a First-Class Fertilizer, as witness the following: Certificate of Dr. W. C. Brown, of Belton. I hereby certify that I used six tons of Black's Improved Fertilizer this year. I find it to be an excellent and cheap Fertilizer, and would advise all my friends to give !t a trial, and think they will not regret it. I expect to use about fifteen tons of it next year. W. C. BROWN. Dec. 19,1873. Certificate of Col. John Martin, of Anderson Co. I take pleasure in saying that I have made and used Black's Improved Fertilizer on my corn and cotton this year. The corn grew off as fast as any I ever had. My cotton was fine. I used Etiwan Guano in the same field, and the cotton manured with Black's Improved Fer? tilizer was fully equal in every respect to that manured with the Etiwan. The cotton manured with the Fertilizer opened sooner than the other. Some of my neighbors examined my crop, and said the Fertilizer beats the Guano' but I am sure it was fully equal. JOHN MARTIN.
