CHARLES W. BOLGIANO 



PRESIDENT 



F. W. BOLGIANO a CO. 



A GOLDEN ADVANCE 



PYank Bolgiano's ambition was to serve every farm and garden need. To 

 this end he worked most steadfastly, and what is more, he left that desire indeli- 

 bly stamped on all those in the organization he built. So it has been our effort 

 to make definite progress each year in that direction. 



Last year our step was a new and improved w'arehouso. Although not 

 completed until late in the spring, it was of great aid, and it will be of even 

 more value to our customers this season. 



This year our step is also an important one; one that should bring us closer 

 to our farm and garden friends ; one that is certainly going to make it possible 

 to serve them better. This year we offer you for the first time our own fer- 

 tilizer, not just something manufactured for us but by us in our own plant, 

 lAider our own formulae and supervision. 



Gold Tag Fertilizers, you will find announced on page 80 of this book. We 

 want you to make their acquaintance. Their compounding is the result of years of 

 study and careful observation. It will pay you to use them in all your operations. 



Cordially yours, 



CHARLES W. BOLGIANO, 

 OR MISTER CHARLES.

 There are many rea- 

 sons why seeds do not 

 always turn out as de- 

 sired such as sowing 

 too deep or too shal- 

 low, in too wet 

 weather, cold weather, 

 or too dry soil, or too 

 wet soil, insects which 

 do not only destroy the 

 seeds, but often the 

 young plants, about 

 the time they appear 

 at the surface of the 

 ground. For these 

 causes we cannot FRANK W. BOLGIANO 



guarantee seeds or founder 



the crop. f. w- bolgiano a co.
