RADIUM 



Makes Things Grow 



This border of vegetables, lawn and 

 shrubbery grrown with Radium Brand 

 Fertilizer (R. A. F.) 



For better flowers, a perfect lawn, 

 luxuriant shrubberies, more vege- 

 tables and better vegetables— and 

 for increasing the rapidity of all 

 vegetable and plant life— use Ra- 

 dium Brand Fertilizer (R. A. F.) 



Use it when planting; if planting 

 has already been done, it should be 

 applied frequently. Dig it in around 

 the roots, top dress your lawns, feed 

 yourshrubbery and vines. Give your 

 plants food so that they will grow 

 and you will not be disappointed.

 dinm Element with fertilizer, 

 containlne Nitroeen, Phos-

*" Dr. H. H. Rusby. of Columbia Uni- 

 versity, says of tests he made with 

 Radium Brand Fertilizer (R. A. F.): 

 "These tests also demonstrated that 

 the quality of Radium-grown vege- 

 tables was much better than the 

 quality of vegetables grown in un- 

 treated ground." 



It also wonderfully 

 improves the bloom of 

 flowers.
