SCOTCH SOOT 



Where there is a house that is Just 

 full of buds almost ready to show color, 

 nothing win turn better color into the 

 flowers than a little soot, that can be 

 scattered over the benches before water- 

 ing. The amount applied should not be 

 excessive, as the soot is very strong 

 and may damage some of the foliage 

 somewhat. Apply Just enough to blacken 

 the surface of the soil In the benches, 

 and let It go at that. Better a little 

 oftener than too much all at once. 



We offer the Eenaine In original cwt. 

 Sacks, at: 



$4.00 per 112 lbs.; $17.60 per 680 lbs.
