, PULVERIZED SHEEP StANURE 



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. The raw mater- 

 ial for Hunt's Sheep Manure is the 

 droppings taken from solid floor sheep 

 corrals. Ordinary manures are 

 largely shoveled up from the ground 

 and contain a large proportion of soil 

 for which you pay, but from which 

 you get nothing except possibly weed 

 seed. A trial order will convince the 

 most skeptical of the superiority of 

 our brand.
