AND VEGETABLES 
We have for a number of years supplied our trade with WIZARD BRAND Manures, 
advocating and recommending their use because of the satisfactory and highly valuable 
results they have given us in our own nursery and landscape work. 
The increasing demand for WIZARD BRAND manures each year is the best recom- 
mendation of the value of this fertilizer. We do not solicit or advertise this product. Our 
main trouble has been our inability to obtain a sufficient amount to supply the ever increas- 
ing demand. 
ANIMAL MANURES ARE NATURE'S FERTILIZERS 
Their value in every kind of soil cultivation is largely responsible for the difficulty 
the city man experiences in obtaining a supply for the lawn and garden. 
Stable manures, however, present many serious objections for home use. They are 
sure to introduce foreign grasses and weeds, make an unsightly, untidy appearance on the 
lawn and are difficult to use in the garden. They blow about, are tracked over the walks 
and into the house and leave a lot of straw and rubbish to be raked up and carted away. 
Only a comparativelv small portion of the original application is really of practical benefit. 
WIZARD BRAND eliminates every one of these objectionable features. Weed seeds 
are absolutely destroyed by the intense heat of the dryers, all long straws and rough stuff 
is removed by screening, and only the pure concentrated manure is shredded or pulverized 
into convenient, easily handled and mo.st effective form. 
The raw material is of unusual quality, accumulated- in Western Stock Yards and 
Feeding Stations where millions of animals are handled annually, and this process results 
in a concentrated, natural fertilizer of most practical value for lawns and gardens, fruits, 
vegetables, trees, vines, greenhouse and field cultivation of all kinds. 
In offering the WIZARD BRAND fertilizer we believe we are safe in saying that 
they are the best fertilizers made. 
Our sales the past two years have surpassed our expectations. We have handled 
nearly 500 tons of this product, and we hav e not ha d a singl e compla int as to its efficiency.
