Sudbury Club Model 



Sudbury Soil Test Kits 



These kits test for Nitrogen, 



Phosphorous, Potash 



and Acidity 



Hit-or-miss methods are no longer popular with the thrifty, skillful 

 gardener. He is unwilling to risk good seed by planting in soil that 

 may be unsuited to their needs — until he knows by test that he is doing 

 the right thing. 



Successful crops are based upon a knowledge of plant requirements 

 plus analysis of the soil that will make possible intelligent adjustment 

 to plant needs. 



The Sudbury Soil Test Kits are designed to make this essential informa- 

 tion instantly available. The quick practical tests will show the pH acidity 

 of soil and any deficiency in nitrogen, phosphorus and potash. Each kit is 

 accompanied by complete instructions and tables of plant needs.
