Just How Good 



your crop will be depends on how 

 well you care for the growing vines 

 as they become top heavy by the 

 weight of their fruit and foliage. 



A properly supported vine is cap- 

 able of bearing more and better to- 

 matoes; the vine thus relieved throws 

 all of its growing strength into the 

 tomatoes themselves. 



We manufacture supports for all 

 kinds of growing plants.

Relieve your 



Gard( 



i'ork of drudgery and make 

 exhilarating pleasure by using the ; 

 kind of tools. Take the "True Temper" Spading 

 Fork for instance. It penetrates the ground with less 

 effort than the common spade. After the forkful of soil is 

 turned it is easily broken up with one stroke of the fork, which 

 passes through and pulverizes the soil instead of tamping it down 

 as a spade would do.

Trade Mark 



Lime, Sxilphur and Sa.lt Concentrated. " Sold by the Seedsmen." 



THIS ARTICLE is a complete Polysulphide of Calcium concentrated, to be diluted with water, for destroying San Jose Sca.le 



Mount Clemens, Mich., Jan. i8, 1907. 

 MR. BENJAMIN HAMMOND, Fishkill-on-Hudson, N. Y. 

 Dear Sih : The HORICUM reached me Monday, Jan. 14th, and I immediately started analysis on the same. The result is as follows : Specific Gravity 

 1.56 or 53 Beaume, total amount of Polysulphides of Calcium is in percentage 45.05 by measure, or 30% by weight. 



As I stated in my former correspondence, you cannot improve on your Preparation regarding the combining of the sulphur employed, more than you have in 

 this HORICUM. 



By grading the dilution you can make it of any desired strength. I would strongly advise you to adhere to your present proportions of material as well as your 

 modus operandi. 



tS°~ If Lime, Sulphur and Salt is at all efficacious for the destruction of the San Jose Scale, HORICUM should be the most desirable for that purpose. 



Yours respectfully, 



JOHN MEYER, Chemist.
