 is substantial and practical. It enables you to move the mach 



For General Greenhouse Use 



THORO-MIX is an all-around worker and just as 

 efficient and capable at the compost pile or in the potting 

 shed as it is in the field. Better soil grows better flowers.

 mixing and conveying the mixture to the beater shown at UJt.
