 enough to supply them. Now, increased production is necessary, ami 

 increaseti production can be accomplished only by planting and fertiliz- 

 ing You must do vour best. GOOD FERTILIZERS ARE ABSO-

JWFERTIIE 



Give Your Soil What It Needs to 

 Make Things Grow. 

 Use a Fertilizer that combines na-

 tility lying dormant and inactive in the soil.

 quickly, has a better effect on the soil, and is much 

 more easily handled. Wizard Brand is just this kind 

 of a fertilizer. It's all natural plant food and humus 

 that makes better soil and better crops. No matter 

 what you grow — fruit, vegetables and grains, or just 

 flowers and grass about the home — Wizard Brand 

 Sheep Manure "Makes Nature Hustle," and builds up 

 your soil at the same time. Price, 15 lbs., 50 cts.; 

 30 lbs., $1.00; 100 lbs., $2.50; 1 ton, $4500.
