Why Our Trees and Shrubs 

 Are the Best Buy

t HEY do say that this rugged eastern climate of ours 

 grows the sturdiest plants and trees. 



One thing sure, those we grow here in our nursery 

 must be good, strong, full rooted specimens or they 

 can't stand the climate. 



This sort of "hardy bringing up" fits them so they 

 thrive in practically any part of the country. For the 

 same reason, our hardy perennials do well East or West 

 — North or South. 



If you want stock with this kind of backbone in it, 

 send for our catalog. 



No one can sell you choicer stock; fill orders more 

 promptly, or pack them more carefully.

The instructions here given, on this 

 'April date of our GARDEN AND 

 PLANTING CALENDAR, show how 

 /e|aim to supply authoritative information 

 (from the pen of Mr. George T. Powell), 

 always on the right day, so that it will not 

 be overlooked, and for 365 days of the 

 THINK WHAT THIS MEANS 

 TO YOU. With an order for a 5-lb. bag 

 of MAK-GRO ODORLESS PLANT FOOD at $1.00 or

 TILIZER at 53.75, we will be glad to send you a copy of 

 this unique and artistic Calendar. 



Saturate part of a clean Blotter with ink — Let it dry thoroughly — 

 Pour water on it — Notice how the dry ink re-dissolves and runs into 

 the freshly-moistened fibres of the still clean part of the blotter. This 

 will suggest how, in like manner, the grains of our EARLY-CROP 



ODORLESS FERTILIZER 



(and of our MAK-GRO ODORLESS PLANT FOOD), when mixed with the soil, are acted 

 upon by the rains and the soil-moisture, releasing from time to time, from the fibre base 

 of the compound, a quantity of immediately available Nitrogen, Phosphoric Acid and Potash 

 so that plants are supplied uninterruptedly throughout the entire growing season, with the 

 food required for their proper growth and, good crop-development. 

 We want to send you our De- 

 scriptive Booklet on the subject, 

 so that, being convinced of the 

 value of our product, you will be 

 prepared to try it out in your Gar- 

 den and Planting Operations this 

 year. For all growing things. 

 Among the dozen or more Book- 

 lets by Mr. George T. Powell on 

 Gardening and kindred subjects, 

 which we intend for extensive 

 distribution, may be several you 

 might want. Send for the list.
