For Everything You Grow 



Use Alphano Humus 



FOR LAWNS, SHRUBS, FLOWERS, VEGETABLES 



It's Nature's Soil Builder 



"W 



rilOU'i humus, no soil can 

 l)e fertile." Such is the 

 statement of Government 

 soil experts, .'\lphano Humus is a con- 

 centrated humus and plant food com- 

 bined. It will .give an immediate and 

 long enduring fertility to any and all 

 soils, no matter if sterile sea sand or 

 unproductive blue clay. It will bind the 

 one together ancl loosen the other up. 



It will induce thick, vigorous lawns 

 that witlistand dry weather, when others 

 are burned and yellow. It will stimulate 

 immediate root action in shrubs and 

 trees, resulting in a sturdy, free top 

 growth.

powdered form; making it agreeable to 

 mix with the soil, it gives to flower 

 gardening an added pleasure and makes 

 possible the height of plant and bloom 

 development. 



Being rich in plant foods, both those 

 innnediately a\ailablc and the more 

 slowly liberated ones, it immediately 

 stimulates vegetalde growth and keeps 

 litem .i;roimiii; vii;oroiisIy the seasons

 ration. 



Send for the Humus Book for full 

 facts and directions for use. Let us 

 know the area of ground you wish to 

 enrich and we will gladly advise how 

 much .Mphano Humus you need.

 rinmiis to build up the tn- 

 lirc soil of your garden to 

 a high state of productive- 

 ness, then snsing it in

 effective way of doing it.
