The most successful 

 market gardener today 



is the farmer who invariably runs his garden 

 on the "intensive-plan." 



No farmer can be said to raise cabbage on 

 the intensive-plan unless he uses a real "in- 

 tensive-fertilizer." And a real "intensive- 

 fertilizer" is merely a fertilizer that is ALL 

 FERTILIZER — without filler — without 

 30% to 40% waste. 



Nitrate 

 of Soda 



is Nitrate — all Nitrate. It's fertilizer that's 

 all fertilizer. Because it's 100% active and 

 immediately available. 



Our "cousin European farmers" get phenomenal re- 

 sults by buying materials "straight" and mixing them 

 into balanced fertilizers. You can do the same. 

 And save money. 



May we send you "Market Gardening with Ni- 

 trate?" It's an "eye-opener" to every market gardener.

Plant Harrison Trees 



ey are Straight, 

 Smooth, Big 



Fruit, Shade and Ornamental trees 

 for home planting should be big, 

 perfect specimens, and should have 

 large fibrous root-systems. 



Harrison trees have these qualities. 

 They are better than most other 

 trees because they are grown in the 

 deep, loose, warm soil and ideal cli- 

 mate of "The Eastern Shore." 



These superior natural conditions 

 produce superb trees when backed 

 up by the best of modern methods 

 and by skilled men. Our fruit trees 

 are budded from bearing orchards. 

 We grow the trees we sell.

Needs a Well-Made 

 Mower to Keep it 

 in Good Condition. 



Coldwell Lawn Mowers 



are made of the best steel, by skilled workmen, in the 

 largest lawn mower factory in the world. 



The Coldwell Imperial is the aristocrat of the hand 

 mowers. It runs easily and cuts a smooth swath. 



Coldwell horse mowers are equipped with demount- 

 able cutters — two or more with each machine. 

 When one is dull, slip in a new one and send the 

 dull cutter to the shop for sharpening. It saves 

 time and trouble and doubles the life of the machine. 



City parks, golf clubs and country estates have 

 found the Coldwell Combination Roller and Motor 

 lawn mower the best and most economical equip- 

 ment for caring for large stretches of turf. 



Write for catalogs and interesting booklet on 

 'The Care of Lawns." Free on request.

That Bungalow 



which you intend to build next Spring 

 will need the soft, artistic tones of 



Cabot's Creosote Stains 



to make it complete and harmonious. 



Paint doesn't suit bungalows. It forms a hard, shiny 

 coat that is foreign to their character and "atmosphere." 

 The Stains produce deep, rich, and velvety colors that har- 

 monize perfectly with the style of building and surround- 

 ings. They are 50% cheaper than paint, and the Creosote 

 thoroughly preserves the wood. 



You can get Cabot's Stains alt over the country. Send for 

 free samples of stained tuood and name of nearest agent,
