MESSRS. JOSEPH FISON & CO. have established a depot at Swansea, and are now prepared to deliver thei Manures, carriage paid at any Railway Station in South Wales and the neighbouring counties. The Corn Manures are designed especially for the production of fine quality combined with a large yield, in which respect they excel other well known fertilisers, and samples of corn grown with these manures have fetched the highest market prices in past seasons. The Root Manures are designed, not only to give the young plants a good start, but to sup- port them through every stage of their growth. Attention is particularly drawn to these points, as some manures are only partial in their action, and, though forcing at first, fail to bring the crops to perfection. Purchasers are re- quested to give their orders to the r earest Agent, or if there be no Agent in the neighbourhood they can be supplied direct from the Firm at list prices. Messrs. Joseph Fison & Co. are prepared to appoint direct Agents at placel where they are not at present represented, and gentlemen of position and responsibility who may be disposed to undertake such agencies are requested to apply by letter to the Head Offices. A few districts only now remain un- occupied, and early application for agencies in such districts is particularly requested.
