Lawn Fertilizer 



SHEEP MANURE is unequaled for top 

 dressing the lawn in early Spring. It 

 makes a complete fertilizer and is especially 

 rich in nitrogen. Spread on evenly while the 

 ground is still frozen; the Spring rains will 

 wash in the fertilizing elements ready for 

 the young roots immediately growth starts. 

 There is no danger of carrying in weed 

 seeds if sheep manure is used. 



It is also excellent for fertilizing the 



Vegetable Garden and Orchard 



promoting a steady, rapid growth. It is 

 non-odorous, is cleaner, and richer than 

 stable manure.

A Piedmont Red Cedar Chest 



in the home saves the trouble and expense of putting your furs in cold storage. 



The cost is about the same as that of a season's cold storage, but the chest 

 lasts a lifetime. Is always in your home and easy of access. 



It does all that cold storage does — and more ; imparts that delicate odor of 

 the genuine Southern Red Cedar to your furs, and absolutely protects them 

 from moths and insects, which at this season are laying their eggs and 

 preparing their work of destruction on furs and woolens. Furs, blankets, 

 valuable clothing, etc., packed in a Piedmont Red Cedar Chest are per- 

 fectly secure from moths, dust and 

 dampness, and kept clean, sweet and 

 fresh. They are always ready to wear. 

 No need of airing to destroy the odor of 

 moth-balls, etc., which do not thoroughly 

 protect. 



Made in several sizes and fitted with 

 handsome trimmings. 



An Ideal Wedding or 

 Birthday Gift 



You run no risk— if not perfectly satisfied 

 with the chest, return it in five days at our ex- 

 pense and get your money back. 



They are shipped direct from fac- 

 tory to your home, freight prepaid. 



Write for booklet with full information and 

 tactory prices.
