Fertilizers for the Farm, Lawn and Garden 



During the entire history of the world there never was 

 a time that food production was as essential as it is today. 



The world is on the verge of starvation. It is said that 

 more than 1,000,000 people will die of starvation during 

 the next twelve months — because there is not food enough 

 to supply them. Now, increased production is necessary, 

 and increased production can be accomplished only by plant- 

 ing and fertilizing. You must do your best. GOOD FER- 

 TILIZERS ARE ABSOLUTELY ESSENTL4.L. 



TEN PER CENT 

 TRUCKER has given our 

 trade the greatest satis- 

 faction. It is principally 

 used for very early crops, 

 and has more than paid 

 for itself in the advanced 

 prices received for early 

 vegetables. As a tobacco 

 bed fertilizer it is excel- 

 lent. Analysis: 10 per 

 cent Ammonia, 5 per cent 

 Phosphoric Acid, 2 per 

 cent Potash. 



SEVEN PER CENT 

 TRUCKER is all right, 

 because every user says 

 so, and one of the best 

 evidences aside from this 

 is that our sales show in- 

 crease year by year. We 

 recommend this Fertilizer to all who look forward to early 

 and good crops. Analysis 7 per cent Ammonia, 6 per cent 

 Phosphoric Acid, 2 per cent Potash. 



AMMONIATED BONE. This is used largely by the best 

 Truckers for general crops. Analysis: 2 per cent Ammonia, 

 9 per cent Phosphoric Acid, 2 per cent Potash. 



1 All IMV TO IS 



GENERAL 2=8=2. A Fertilizer for general uses — that's 

 what its name implies. The demand has been large for just 

 such a Fertilizer. We recommend this grade for most crops. 

 Analysis: 2 per cent Ammonia, 8 per cent Phosphoric Acid, 

 2 per cent Potash. 



PURE RAW BONE MEAL. At the outset we say the 

 bone you should buy and use is Armour's, because it is pure, 

 finely ground and of first quality. There is no bone on the 

 market today that will compare with it ; and if you will 

 give it a Lrial on your Land, we confidently believe you will 

 agree in what we say. Analysis: 4 to 5 per cent Ammonia, 

 24 per cent Phosphoric Acid, 48 per cent Bone Phosphate. 



FISH AND BONE. Last year we sold great quantities of 

 these goods. They gave much satisfaction to our trade. 

 Analysis: 2 per cent Ammonia, 10 per cent Pnos. Acid. 



FINE GROUND DRIED FISH. This Fertilizing material 

 is largely used in mixing Fertilizers. It contains a large 

 percentage of Ammonia, and is quick in action. 



FINE GROUND DRIED TANKAGE. Is used largely as a 

 base in all Animal Fertilizers, and gives quick and fine re- 

 sults. Contains large percentage of Ammonia and Phos- 

 phoric Acid. 



Prices on application. 



BLOOD MEAL — FOR ROSES. It is Avell to remember 

 that all plants require the proper amount ef food if they 

 are to do their best. We can recommend Blood Meal to 

 be the very best for roses. 



A tablespoonful to be sprinkled around the Rose Bush, 

 about one inch away from the bush, every two weeks. It is 

 also very valuable as a top dressing in the vegetable garden, 

 flower garden, around house plants, trees and in hot houses. 

 1 lb. 15 cts.; 3 lbs. 40 cts.; 5 lbs. 60 cts. 



Fertilizing Chemicals 



A great many first-class Gardeners and Farmers have 

 come to see the advantage of the use of chemicals on their 

 grounds and in building up their soils. We have for a num- 

 ber of years made this a special feature of our business, 

 and are prepared to furnish any of the leading sorts in any 

 quantity.

 able and useful a great amount of fertility lying dormant 

 and inactive in the soil. 



WIZARD BRAND PULVERIZED SHEEP MANURE 

 AND SHREDDED CATTLE MANURE is a particularly effi- 

 cient material for making up the compost supply. It is

 quickly, has a better eflect 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.

An A]] = tlje Year Fertilizer for Garden and House Plants 



Growers of flne flowers, shrubs and vegetables for the 

 best markets and for exhibition, fertilize and stimulate them 

 frequently, a little at a time. An excellent fertilizer for the 

 purpose is STIM-U-PLANT, an odorless, highly concen- 

 trated plant-food, in tablet form, with guaranteed chemical 

 analysis of 11 per cent Nitrogen, 12 per cent Phosphoric 

 Acid, 15 per cent Potash. The proportions are accurate, 

 there is ho unnecessary filler, and in this form you are able 

 to apply plant-food exactly when and where auu as needed. 



Make Your Garden a Wonder Garden 



These tablets increase production, heighten color and im- 

 prove quality. Many professional and amateur growers use 

 them extensively all the year round — from early spring until 

 late fall outdoors, during the winter for pot plants, hothouse 

 benches, etc. They are equally good for evergreens and 

 other trees as for a small fern, petunia or other potted plant. 



STIM=U=PLANT TABLETS can be used in tablet form, 

 or dissolved in water at the rate of one tablet to the quart. 

 Complete directions with every package. 



Order Stim-u-planT tablets with your seed and plant 

 order. Price: 10 tablets for 15 cts.; 30 for 25 cts.; 100 

 for 75 cts.; 1,000 for $3.50. 



NITRATE OF SODA. For very early vegetables, and giv- 

 ing an early start to grass or grain, there is nothing to 

 equal it. 



SOUTH CAROLINA ROCK is used for Phosphoric Acid 

 that it contains, and is valuable in mixing with other goods.
