Adco Artificial Stable Manure 



Use Up Your Waste. Make It Yourself 



Dry leaves, mixed with Adco and kept moist, turn into excellent manure. 

 So do flower stalks, cuttings, pea vines, and almost any other kind of non- 

 woody vegetable waste. 



Adco is a powder which, mixed with vegetable matter and kept moist, 

 turns the latter into Real Manure, but without the odor, flies, etc. The 

 process is perfectly simple and not at all laborious. The method is being 

 generally adopted by gardeners, who know that manure is a necessity to 

 the soil and can no longer be obtained from stables. Farmers can use 

 straw, corn stalks, etc.. and need no longer maintain live stock. 

 Each shipment is accompanied by simple directions, which make 

 any mistake impossible
