HUNT'S PURE BONE FLOUR 



This is identical with our Pure Bone 

 Meal, except it is ground to a very 

 fine dust or flour, making it especially 

 valuable for use in liquid form or for 

 mixing with other fertilizers when 

 quick action is required.

BLOOD AND BONE 

 Preferred by many of our best and largest growerp owing to 

 its great percentage of ammonia and available phosphate, which 

 makes it quick acting. 



It is a mixture of pure tankage or blood and the best grade of 



Bone Meal in proportions to stimulate root action and bring out 

 the besc color in the blooms.

PULVERIZED SHEEP 

 MANURE 



One of the most effective of ferti- 

 lizers and largely used by the best 

 growers, both as a top dressing and 

 in the manure tanks. A trial order 

 will convince the most skeptical of 

 the supei iority of our brand. It is the 

 Pure Sheep Manure. No dirt, no 

 weed seeds, nothing but what will 

 give results. Sheep manure is a per- 

 fect fertilizer, containing all the nec- 

 essary plant foods which are lacking 

 in most soils.

KNIPHOFIAS. 



Becent introductions of species of kni- 

 phofia, or tritoma, as they are more fre- 

 quently called, and the good products of 

 skilful hybridists who have raised new 

 color varieties from species already well 

 known, have increased the garden value 

 of this genus. They can now be had in 

 many fascinating shades of color, rang- 

 ing from creamy white through all shades 

 of yellow, apricot, coral, red and crim- 

 son, either self-colored or in the two or 

 three contrasting shades peculiar to the 

 group. 



Early winter and early spring are the 

 best seasons for moving and planting 

 kniphofias, and the Gardeners' Chronicle 

 says it is preferable in naturally reten- 

 tive soils to cover the crowns with but 

 three inches of soil, or decay may ensue; 

 their own contractile roots will pull the 

 plants deeper into the ground as growth 

 goes on. Practically all species are hardy 

 in England and in the United States 

 south of Philadelphia, if wey protected, 

 but farther north they should be dried 

 and stored over winter and replanted in 

 spring. Firm planting is desirable, and 

 the roots should be spread apart to en- 

 sure good anchorage and thus prevent 

 frosts lifting the plants above the ground

level and exposing the rootstock. If the 

 plantation is a new one and the plants 

 have to be purchased, only those should 

 be chosen whose leaves and roots are 

 uncut. 



Many nurserymen still follow the un- 

 fortunate practice of trimming the roots 

 and leaves of kniphofias close to the root- 

 stock, treating the plants as though they 

 were deciduous bulbs — nothing can be 

 more detrimental to the plant's welfare 

 than this. The sh6rtened leaves form a 

 perfect funnel to conduct water to the 

 rootstock in the depth of winter, and the 

 mutilated roots are in a soddened state

 well-rooted plant, having plenty of good 

 leaves, can protect itself from excess of 

 wet and thrive where a mutilated stump 

 would quickly die out.
