THE CELEBRATED LONGBEACH POISONED GRAIN IS Proving itself to be a Certain Cure Jtor the small birds nuisance. It is manufactured in quite a different metho i from other poisoned grain in the colony. By applyingthe poison to the grain (dry) the grain retains its sweetmess, and birds take it more readily than when steeped. Weather does not affect it, and it is very deadly in its destroying properties, and with improvements | added in the mixing this season, it is undoubtedly the Best Poisoned Grain in the eolomy. Any sort j of Grain, Bice or Seeds and ready for j sowing directly mixed. I TESTIMONIALS. ■ This is to certify that Fredk.
