Of equal importance with buying good seed is the ap 

 plication of the right kind of fertilizers, not only to replace 

 the plantfood taken up by the plants, but to make the crops 

 do their very utmost for you. In order to make the most of 

 your efforts, use only high-grade fertilizers. The use of 

 cheaper grades is just a waste of money. We have listed be- 

 low several kinds of high-grade fertilizers and their analysis 

 and will be very glad to give you any advice regarding 

 their use. 



TEN PER CENT 

 TRUCKER has given 

 our trade the greatest 

 satisfaction. It is prin- 

 cipally used for very 

 early crops, and has 

 more than paid for it- 

 self in the advanced 

 prices received for early 

 vegetables. As a tobacco 

 bed fertilizer it is ex- 

 cellent. 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 increase year by 

 year. We recommend 

 this Fertilizer to all who 

 look forward to early 

 and good crops. Analy- 

 sis: 7 per cent Ammonia, 6 per cent Phosphoric Acid, 2 per 

 cent Potash. 



Fertilizing 



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 number of 

 years made this a special feature of our business, and are 



prepared to fur- 

 nish any of the 

 leading sorts i n 

 any quantity. 

 GIVE YOUR SOIL 

 WHAT IT NEEDS 



TO MAKE 

 THINGS GROW 

 Use a Fertilizer 

 that combines nat- 

 ural humus and or- 

 ganic matter with 

 natural plant food. 

 One that actually 

 makes available 

 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 efficient 

 material for making up the compost supply. It is used in 

 this way by many florists who have limited space and who 

 cannot mix their compost in the okl way. It acts quickly, 

 has a better effect on the soil, and is much more easily han- 

 dled. 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, vege- 

 tables and grain, or just flowers and grass about the home — 

 WIZARD BRAND SHEEP MANURE "Makes Nature Hus- 

 tle," and builds up your soil at the same time. Price: 10 lbs. 

 50 cts; 25 lbs. 80 cts.; 100 lbs. $2.35; ton, $42.50.

AMMONIATED BONE. This is u.sed largely by the best 

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

 9 per cent Phosphoric Acid, 2 per cent Potash. 



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 trial 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 Phos. 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 well to remember 

 that all plants require the proper amount of 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. 



Chemicals 



Stim-CiB-planT 



PLANT STIMULANT TABLET 



An AlI-the-Year Fertilizer for Garden and House Plants 



Growers of fine 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 no unnecessary filler, and in this form you are able 

 to apply plant-food exactly when and where and 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.
