Do you want to be sure of eating This Year? 
The way to do it is to raise your own stuff if you have the ground, and thus make living easier 
for someone else who has no ground. Enough for a small family can be raised on a city lot. 
On account of the great importance of the food question, fertilizers are in greater demand this 
year than ever, and it is most important that only those kinds are used which will produce the best 
crops. I line and money will have been wasted if a poor fertilizer is used. Stable manure is over 80°/ 
water, leaving 20% of questionable value as a fertilizer for the money vou have spent fur it If vou 
™ '? 1 wh .i ch shaTm e s have been used for bedding, the acids and turpentine 
The usual price for a ton of stable manure is $10.00, plus the cost of handling, and like coal last 
Winter, you will have to know where to get it to get it at that price. 
200 lbs. of Atkinson's Prepared Humus, costing SC.00, contains several times more of perfectly 
balanced plant food than is contained in a ton of ordinary stable manure after the water is evapo- 
rated, and contains everything necessary for any plant and soil. 1 
Each Pound will grow more than Five Lbs. of Luscious Vegetables 
Why pay extortionate prices for stale stuff if you have ground enough for a kitchen garden?
