Soot 



Where there is a house that is just full of 

 buds almost ready to show color, nothing 

 will turn better color into the flowers than a 

 little soot, that can be scattered over the 

 benches before watering. The amount ap- 

 plied 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 of tener 

 than too much all at once. 



We offer the genuine in 

 original cwt. sacks, at 



(2.75 per 112 lbs.; $12.50 per 560 lbs.
