Tested Farm Seeds

Early Newmarket Oats 



Henderson's Green 

 Manuring Seed Mixture 



Sow this mixture and supply your 

 soil with Manure and Humus 



Since the horse has been relegated 

 to the background, and the automobile 

 has taken its place, it has become al- 

 most impossible for the home gardener 

 to obtain manure. We have made a 

 combination consisting of various 

 rapid growing plants and legumes 

 which will completely fill the deficiency 

 of humus, and at the same time add 

 nitrogen to the soil. 



Such a crop will also prevent wash- 

 ing out and leaching during winter. 

 The time for gardeners to plant is the 

 early fall in order to secure germina- 

 tion before frost. The seeds may be 

 broadcast, or if the last of the crops 

 has not been removed, sown between 

 the rows. In April or as soon as the 

 ground can be worked, spade under 

 and mix it well with the soil. While 

 the mixture will usually be sown in the 

 fall, it may also be sown in the spring 

 or summer if the plot is not wanted for 

 early crops. If sown then, the plants 

 should be allowed to attain a growth 

 of about a foot in height before being 

 spaded under. 



Sow at the rate of 1 pound for 1,000 

 square feet. 



Price, 1 lb., 50c; 2 lbs., 95c; 5 lbs., 

 $2.35; 10 lbs., $4.25. Postpaid. By ex- 

 press or freight, 25 lbs., $9.50; 50 lbs., 

 $18.00; 100 lbs., $35.00.
