UNIQUE SIGN MADE ENTIRELY OF GRAIN SEEDS 



A UNIQUE feature of the exhibit 

 material which the Northern Pacific 

 Railway has assembled to place in its 

 exhibit car which will tour the Eastern 

 and Southern states is an immense trade 

 mark of the company made out of grain 

 seed. The accompanying picture will 

 give some idea of the appearance of this 

 symbol, the frame being six feet square, 

 and the trade mark and lettering mounted 

 on a background of green baize. The 

 outer rim of the trade mark is a rope of 

 straw. The lettering "Northern Pacific" 

 is made of alfalfa seed, the background in 

 the outer circle is No. 1 Northern wheat, 

 the upper half of the "Monad" is red 

 millet, the lower half is rutabaga seed. 



the lettering "Yellowstone Park Line" 

 and "Northern Pacific Railway" is tim- 

 othy, the background of the lower panel 

 is ground flax, and the lettering "Scenic 

 Highway Through the Land of Fortune" 

 is clover seed. Taken altogether, it is a 

 most attractive piece of workmanship, the 

 coloring being brought out in an inge- 

 nious manner. It took one man three 

 weeks to make it. 



Many other interesting and instructive 

 exhibits of the products of Minnesota, 

 North Dakota, Montana, Idaho, Oregon 

 and Washington fill the Northern Pacific 

 exhibit car to overflowing with "show 

 me" evidence of the great fertility and 

 varied resources of these states.

"I HAVE SO LITTLE FUNGUS 



That I cannot afford to mark my fruit with bordeaux," says Mr. George T. Powell, of Ghent, 

 New York, a grower of fancy apples. "I have less scale and finer foliage than ever before." 

 Reason : Five years' consecutive use of 



"SCALECIDE" 



Cheaper, more effective, and easier to apply than lime-sulphur
