When 1 bought land in southern New Jersey, a few years ago, for seed growing and testing purposes, I had a 

 fertilizer prepared for my own particular and exclusive use. It was made on a special formula, from high-grade 

 materials, without a pound of make-weight or make-bulk stufT in It. It was, in fact, the best article that I knew 

 how to construct out of the various fertilizer ingredients on the American market. It was planned for myself, and 

 not Intended for sale. It has been used long enough for me to now truthfully say that It has added hundreds and 

 even thousands of dollars to the value of my own crops, both at Panmure, New Jersey, and at Briar Crest, Penn- 

 sylvania. It was never my intention to sell this fertilizer to the public, but there have been so many Inquiries 

 made about it that I have put it on the market. Originally It was called "Panmure Special Mixture," but that 

 was only the name under which it was handled on my trial grounds. In offering It to the public as a licensed 

 brand I selected the name "Panmure Plant Food." 



This excellent fertilizer contains enough ammonia to Insure plants a quick start, enough phosphoric acid for 

 all seed growing or grain growing purposes, and enough potash to give flavor to fruit and 

 brilliance to flowers. It Is not only well and liberally supplied with plant foods, but these 

 foods are perfectly balanced. The great secret of the success of Panmure Plant Food, 

 however, lies In the fact that every one of its Ingredients is a high-grade and first-class 

 article. It was a lucky formula that I selected for my Panmure trial grounds, and It Is 

 this good luck that I am now offering to share with my friends. 



For In-door Gardening. 



For greenhouses, conservatories, win- 

 dow gardens, hot beds, frames, etc., 

 Panmure Plant Food will be found entirely satisfactorj- as a stimula- 

 ting and permanently helpful top dressing, or It may be mixed with 

 the soil. It Is used dry or mixed with water. I recommend Its appli- 

 cation in the dry state, In comparatively small quantities, at intervals 

 of a month, as a top dresser. For in-door use. In a small way, Panmure 

 Plant Food Is sold In 25-cent packages; also In lots of 10 and 25 pounds. 

 See prices. 



Unr dtiit <1nnr IIco ^°^ ^^^ gardening operations I recommend 

 ff Ol UUl-UUUl use. the use of Panmure Plant Food at the rate of 

 1,000 to 2,000 pounds per acre, in connection with a liberal amount of 

 stable manure, or else upon sod spaded down or plowed under. This 

 may sound like a large amount of high-grade fertilizer to use, but it is 

 no more than Is applied by the commercial gardeners and truckers 

 near the great cities. These truckers expect to grow two or sometimes 

 three crops iu a season, and to get a gross yield from their land of S500 

 to SljOOO per acre. It is better to make several applications of fertilizer 

 during a year than to put it all in at one time.

 1 VI ijAiciiiaiBv. Aiui/n.uijj. denlng, where operations are con- 

 ducted on an Intermediate scale between gardening and farming, I 

 recommend the use of 800 pounds of Panmure Plant Food per acre. 

 This amount will give grand results, In connection with stable manure, 

 on such crops as tomatoes, beans, peas, sweet corn, etc. For potatoes 

 I recommend 1,000 pounds per acre. 



Fnr (ionoral Fiirminn ^°'' general farm crops I recommend 

 WVl UClieitll rdllllUiy. 300 to 400 pounds per acre of Panmure 

 Plant Food. This fertilizer is absolutely the best for farm purposes 

 within my knowledge. It will give grand results on wheat, oats, corn 

 and hay, and also on meadows, mowing fields and pastures. I have 

 tested It upon almost every farm crop, in my Panmure trials, and have 

 been myself surprised at the results. 



Worthy of Trial. 



Fnp fhp I aufll Panmure Plant Food Is constructed for both quick 

 '^"* lilt. LaWll. and permanent action. It is, therefore, an admir- 

 able thing for grass. I have used It with the most excellent results on 

 grass, clover and forage plants. It produces a rich, green, healthy 

 color, and a vigorous growth. It Is just right for the lawn, and may be 

 used in spring, summer or autumn. A 10-pound package of Panmure 

 Plant Food is quite sufficient for four square rods of lawn. Beautiful 

 grass adds niore than anything else to the appearance of a lawn. 



I wish all my friends to try at least a package 

 of Panmure Plant Food during the coming 

 season, for it certainly Is a model fertilizer in all respects, both In quick 

 action and in lasting qualities. It is not only a starter but a pusher. It 

 is not a hot fertilizer, though I recommend that It be mixed well with 

 the soil, in order to extend the action of the roots. 



Prices at first glance may seem high, but I can safely say, without 

 reserve, that Panmure Plant Food, when applied intelligently, will be 

 worth several times as much as the ordinary commercial fertilizer that 

 is generally made to sell and from which results are so infinltesimally 

 small as not to be discerned by the purchaser; and I can assure my 

 friends that they will make a mistake unless they give Panmure Plant 

 Food a trial this season.
