M-itrdh HUMUS 



For the Price is the Best and Cheapest ___ 



It is unequaled for increasing the fertil- 

 ity and yield of the vegetable garden: 

 For producing more and better flowers: 

 For making new and restoring old lawns 

 and tennis courts. Humus makes a 

 clay soil friable and a sandy soil to hold 

 moisture. It has no equal as a mulch 

 for things growing. It has no odor, 

 weed seeds or litter. The soil needs 

 nitrogen gathering bacteria — humus is 

 alive with them. Plants need food — 

 humus has an abundance of it. The 

 productiveness of soil is determined by 

 the amount of humus it contains.
