A NETROrOLITAN rRONISE 

 IS AS GOOD AS A BOND 



Promises, even though made with the best 

 intentions, are usually very uncertain, unless 

 the source of the promise is backed up by a 

 firmly established reputation for reliability 

 and dependability. 



Everything should be incorporated in the 

 contract. We seldom make a promise, but, 

 when we do, our reputation proves conclusively 

 that its fulfillment can always be depended 

 upon. 



The New Jersey Agricultural Experiment 

 Station, at New Brunswick, N. J., placed their 

 greenhouse building operations with us, and 

 the following is what Dr. J. O, Lipman, the 

 director, wrote after it was completed : 



"In so far as I know, the work done 

 by you was eminently satisfactory, 

 and I trust that we shall have occa- 

 sion in the future to request your 

 company to bid on other work."

Your customers buy potted plants. Often 

 they wither and die and you are blamed 

 for the failure. It's simply because plant 

 food is lacking. Your customers don't 

 want fertilizers with offensive odors. They 

 need Odorless Fertile that does not mar 

 the fragrance of the flowers. Just the material 

 for Lawns. Flowers. Shrubs and Small Gardens. 

 You can sell several cans of Odorless Fertllo 

 to each customer who buys potted plants and 

 several bags to those with gardens. Make them 

 more successful and they will become flower 

 enthusiasts. 



FKRTILO is nature's pure plant food and com- 

 bines all the essential elements required by 

 plant life: Ammonia, Phosphoric Acid. Bone, 

 Phosphate of Lime and Potash. Makes the 

 necessary Humus for enriching the soil and is 

 also an excellent Insecticide. 

 FERTILO is odorless, will not get hard and 

 lumpy. Putupin handy containers in 1 and 6-lb. 

 sizes, and in 10 and 80-lb. bags. The 1-lb. pack- 

 age will fertilize 10 gallons of eartb for potted 

 plants or 50 sa. ft. of surface. Retails for 2Sc. 

 Full and simple directions printed on each 

 package. 



Florists, truckers and landscape gardeners
