Tl MARYLAND FERTILIZING il MIMIC MING CO. HAVE PREPARED A SPECIAL FERTILIZER ADAPTED TO THE COTTON PLANT, UNDER THE NAME OF O O T T O IV E O O 13 ? Which they claim to be of the Highest Grade of Fertilizer sold In the South, and guarantee to equal lu rcsu.ts Peruvian Quauo, pound for pound, and of more permanent benefit to the soil. It has been used by several hundred Planters in North and South Carolina and Georgia, for two seasons, with the following results : It increases the crop from io J to 200 per cent. It resists drought lu all caaes. The crop ls not affected by rust. Ic matures the crop three to four weeks In advance, thus insuring the crop against early frosts, or in tbe event of a backward season for planting enables the planter to put In his crop three or four J weeks later, even as late as tue lat of June, with a certainty uf success. It produces a better quality of cotton. Looking at the low price of Cotton, the intelligent planter will readily comprehend the necessity of using nothing bat the highest grade of Fertilizers, and of strictly avoiding those whose value has been reduced by adult?rai lon or the use or cheap materials under the pretence of meeting the low price of Cotton. If bis crop ls only doubled by the use of "COTTON FOOD" It will give him from one to two hun? dred per cent, profit, on h s outlay, with Cotton at I2>i cents per pound, and lt will enable him to plant Tower acres, wltu a corresponding reduction of labor and expense, with better results. $55 PER TON, IN SACKS, TWELVE TO THE TON.
