RAM'S HEAD BRAND. 



HAS 1^0 EQUAI.. 



This is the pure Natural Manure, and the most 

 nutritious foc^d for plants. Its effect is immediate ; much 

 more lasting and healthy than guano or any other ma- 

 nure. It is the best of manures for mixing the soil for 

 greenhouse plants — one part manure and six parts soil. 

 Strewn over and dug into the vegetable garden or placed 

 directly in drills or hills, it promotes a rapid, steady 

 growth until maturity; all culinary vegetables reach their 

 highest quality only when growth is rapid and unchecked. 

 It makes the richest, safest and quickest Liquid Manure, 

 rivaling guano, without any deleterious effects. For use 

 in liquid form, one pound to five gallons of water will 

 make a dark liquid which can be used with safety daily 

 if necessary. As a Lawn Top Dressing it is unequaled.
