Peat Moss. This ideal humus comes in dry bales of about 

 185 lbs. each. It makes most satisfactory mulch that can be 

 nsed on top dressing to prevent weeds and conserve moisture. 

 When mixed with the soil, it aids materially in lightening 

 heavy soils. Per bale, $4.00. 



ADCO ^"""^"^^"^^ garden refuse, such as leaves, stalks, 

 cuttings, potatoes, beans and pea vines, etc., 

 into ARTIFICIAL MANURE. 



ADCO is a powder which, when mixed with almost any 

 non-woody vegetable waste and kept moist, gradually con- 

 verts the mass into real manure fully equal to the farmyard 

 product in fertilizing power, but free from foul odor, flies, 

 weed-seeds, etc. The process is perfectly simple and not at 

 all laborious. 



Gardeners can now have plenty of manure at low cost and 

 little trouble. 



Farmers, by utilizing straw, com stalks, etc., can secure 

 their manure without the expense and labor of maintaining 

 live-stock. 



ADCO, in 150-lb bags, each (Enough for a heap 10 ft x 



10 ft. X 6 ft., making about 3 tons of manure) $10.50 



ADCO, in 25-lb bags, each (Enough for 12 wheelbar- 

 row loads of garden waste, making % ton of man- 

 ure) .._ 2.00 



Land Plaster. (Ground Gypsum) Should be more widely 

 used for deodorizing manure piles. When spread on fresh 

 manure it unites with the ammonia as it is given off, thus 

 preventing th& loss of this most valuable material, and at 

 the same time keeping down the odor. When spread on 

 the land manure so treated has extra value in the calcium 

 and sulphur thus added to the soil. 



Plaster is also widely used for mixing with insecticides 

 for dusting plants, having been used for many years with 

 Paris Green on potatoes. 50-lb. paper sack 60c; 100 lbs., 

 $1.00; 1 ton $16.00; f.o.b. Washington, D. G.

 block) 80c ea.

What a Difference a Few of These 

 Magic Tablets Make 



Picture a plant — struggling gallantly but vainly— in a 

 feeble, fruitless search to find food in soil that contain^ 

 none. Faded, drooping, flowerless, you call it a failure. But 

 is it? 



A few of the magic plant food tablets called Plantabbs 

 would have made this pathetic little plant a big success! 



We now sell and recommend Plantabbs. Odorless, clean, 

 easy to use, they're Trojans for work. A forkful of stable 

 manure won't do as much for your plants and flowers as one 

 of these concentrated, odorless white tablets! As they dis- 

 solve in water almost instantly, they make a wonderful liquid 

 fertilizer, and when used in this way make the most worn-out 

 soil rich and fertile overnight. 



Plantabbs are so perfectly balanced, so chuck full of 

 growth producing, health giving, energizing plant food, that 

 many florists and professional growers purchase them in 

 quantities for their own use. 



To i-aise potted plants of amazing beauty, to enjoy a gorge- 

 ous garden with a profusion of brilliantly colored blooms, to 

 raise tender succulent vegetables, use Plantabbs! Leading 

 horticulturists and State Agricultural Departments approve 

 them — and we guarantee to refund your money if they fail 

 to benefit your plants when used according to the instruc- 

 tions which come with each package. 



A season's supply for your garden costs only $3.50; other 

 sizes sufficient for potted plants, sell for $1.00, 50 cts., and 

 25 cts. per package. Include in your next order.
