 the seed is sown, to press the ground with the back of the spade; if covered too deeply 

 they cannot come up. Early spring: is the best time to sow them. Some, such as Sage, 



Rosemary, Lavender and Basil, are best 

 sown in a frame and afterwards trans- 

 planted into the garden.

FARMOGERM. 



(High Bred Nitrogen Fixing Bacteria.) Makes Poor Soil Good Soil. 



DOES AWAY with the use of expensive 

 fertilizers by using nature's method of 

 supplying nitrates. Lime, potash and phos- 

 phates are comparatively cheap, and in 

 many cases there is an abundant supply 

 of these in the soil which can be made 

 available for plant food if right methods 

 are used — and the "Farmogerm Method" is 

 the right method. If you wish to improve 

 the condition of your land and grow bigger 

 and better crops, send for book on the 

 "Farmogerm Method." "What it has done 

 for thousands of people during the past 

 few years it will do for you.

 clovers, cowpeas and soy beans in rotation 

 is of great benefit. You can double the 

 benefit if your treat the seeds with Farmo- 

 germ and follow instructions for putting 

 the land in suitable condition. 



ALFALFA. — The greatest forage crop 

 grown — yields two to eight cuttings per 

 year, an average of seven to twenty tons 

 per acre. Contains one-third more protein 

 (muscle building food) than clover, and in 

 food value equals a full grain ration. 

 Horses, mules, cattle, hogs and chickens 

 relish it and fatten rapidly on it. The 

 largest stock farms advocate its growth. 

 Eighty per cent of the farms of . this 

 country can grow it, if they use the
