Portable Houses 
For Camps, Cottages, Garages and Every Purpose 
HE old style portable house of poor construction and box-like effect has given way 
to one of graceful lines, careful assembling and adaptation toclimatic changes. Its 
great convenience, inexpensiveness and durability is apparent. 
For 25 years we have been perfecting our portable houses, and we now manufacture 
a complete line of high grade construction and specialize in Summer Cottages, Garages 
and Hunters’ Camps. 
Our houses are shipped complete in every detail and can be put up without any 
previous experience, in a few hours, according to the size of the house. 
We have a little booklet telling about our houses, giving dimensions, 
prices and other particulars, fully illustrated, which we would be pleased 
to send you upon request. Send for it to-day.

FARMOGERM 
High-Bred Nitrogen-Gathering Bacteria 
No amount of the ordinary, troublesome, expensive fertilizing 
will take its place. You cannot put enough nitrogen in the 
soil that way. 
Inoculate the seed by moistening with Farmogerm or spray it on the seed bed or 
young plants and let the active, virile nitrogen-gathering bacteria do the work. 
They will multiply by the million in the soil—will draw nitrogen from the air 
and convert it into the food the plant wants most. That’s why Farmogerm 
MAKES POOR SOIL GOOD SOIL 
It not only increases the immediate crop but enriches the land for future crops. 
Don’t confuse Farmogerm with other nitrogen bacteria cultures. It is prepared 
differently from all others and goes to you in sealed bottles ready to use. You 
have no developing or treating todo. Every Bottle Is Guaranteed to contain 
a pure culture of these bacteria in active, virile condition, and in sufficient 
quantity to inoculate the amount of seed or soil specified. 
Let Us Send You Our Book jrciciciops, Italo contains the U. 8. Dept: 
of Agriculture endorsements of the use of nitrogen-gathering bacteria, and the opinions of Geo. T.
