Thousands of Successful Farmers Are Doing It 



There Is no charm or secret about it. 

 You simply spread it with a machine, and 

 thus make it go twice as far, get twice as 

 much grood from it on the first crop, do 

 your land more permanent grood. and save 

 half the time and labor of handling:. 



Manure is gfenerally estimated to be 

 ■worth 52.00 a ton handled the old way. 

 There is no doubt that it is worth twice as 

 much to the farmer who spreads with a 

 machine. 



Two of the most practical and valut.ble 

 machines manufactured for farm use to- 

 day are the Com Kin? and Cloverleaf 

 manure spreaders. They are each made 

 in a number of sizes. 



These machines differ somewhat In 

 construction and operation, but both are 

 right working and of great durability. 



They are proven machines. They em- 

 body the best mechanical ideas, the ma- 

 terials used in construction are the best 

 for the purpose, they are made as simple 



as possible, and they handle manure in all 

 conditions to the perfect satisfaction of 

 users. Proof of all this is to be found in 

 the record each machine has made in the 

 field. 



Is it not to your interest to own and use 

 one of these spreaders on your farm? 



Figure out for yourself and you must 

 agree that it will be a paying investment, 

 even if you do not have over twenty-five 

 loads of manure to spread in a year. 



You can't help but be pleased with the 

 work, the easy handling, the light draft 

 and the substantial making which saves 

 you the annoyance of breakage and 

 repairs. 



Call and see these spreaders with the 

 local International agent. He will gladly 

 point out to you the superior features of 

 these machines, as well as supply you 

 with catalogue, colored hanger or other 

 information. 



The nearest branch house will supply you with anv further Inlormatlon desired.

For IMMEDIATE 

 PLANTING 



WE WANT every reader of The Canadian Horticulturist 

 to have a copy of our Autumn Catalogue in which 

 is offered the most complete and comprehensive list of bulbs 

 to be found in Canada. It's free for the asking. To keep up- 

 to-date floriculturailv your name should be on our mailing list, 

 and our various catalogues will be sent as issued. 



BULBS — Thousands of people overlook the planting of 

 Spring Flowering Bulbs in the Fall, and have many regrets 

 when they see them blooming in the gardens of their neighbors 

 in the Spring. Send for our catalogue now, make your selection 

 and plant your bulbs out before hard frost comes, or selection 

 of sorts may be left to us. 



HARDY PERENNIAL PLANTS— No better time 

 to set these out than now. They quickly take hold and in- 

 variably make finer and stronger plants than when planting is 

 done in the Spring.
