PREPARED ALPHANO 
The Organic Fertilizer With a Guarantee 
Ttie Inie Prepared Alphano is a dry. 
finely i^raoulated organie fertilizer, 
adding concentrated humus and plant 
foods to the soil. It is at once 
active and beneficial.

weeds. Vigorous shrubbery 
and tree growth. Flowers 
of increased size and beauty. Veg- 
etables greater in j'ield and succu- 
lence. Your soil at once enriched 
and permanently bettered. 
You can accomplish all this at 
small cost and effort by doing it 
The Alphano Way 
The clean, sanitary waj', without 
stench, disease germs or caustic ac- 
tion. 
Prepared .A.lphano is a well bal- 
anced organic fertilizer, made from 
rich organic matter in concentrated 
form, skilfully blended with the 
plant foods found in chemical 
fertilizers. It carries in active form, 
all the important soil bacteria that 
force the earth to liberate plant 
food, and the air to lend its nitrogen 
to plant growth. 
Prepared Alpkano is Xalure's bal- 
anced soil ration. 
It puts the most into the soil, gets 
the most out of that soil and per- 
manently benefits that soil for the 
least inonev. 
We Stand Back of It 
It has ten years of fertility pro- 
ducing success to its credit. Pre- 
pared Alphano, if used as directed, 
will and must make good. We stand 
without question, back of every 
pound sold. 
Price Advance March 1st 
Due to the increased cost of labor, 
fuel and raw materials used in the 
manufacture of .Alphano, a con- 
sistent advance in price has become 
imperative. This increase gives you 
assurance of the quality being main- 
tained. 
It hardly seemed fair, however, to 
make such an advance without first 
giving both our old customers and 
prospective new ones, a chance to 
Ijuy at the old prices. 
After March First, price per ton 
in bags will be $15 instead of $12. 
— Price per ton in bags bv carload. 
$12 instead of $10. 
5 10" lb. Bans fc- S5 '^'2 i ton -n l-ags 
$10 a ton in bags by the carload 
$8 a ton in bulk by tne ca''load 
F. O. B. Alphano, N. J. 
1 hcsc price-'' !n'l(i good until March Ist only 
— Price per ton in bulk bv carload, 
$10 instead of $8. 
— Price on 5 100-lb. bags will for the 
present remain the same. $5. 
Even at the advanced price, it is 
far cheaper than any fertilizer of 
anything like an equal in plant foods 
alone, regardless of the high value 
of the concentrated hutnus it con- 
tains. 
Rot Proof Bags 
Alphano is now put up in rot 
proof bags, thus insuring its safe 
arrival to you in good condition, and 
can be stored safely if desired. 
Railroads are still moving freight 
slowly, so order early. It's the only 
sure way of getting it early. Take 
advanlai'e of its present ton.' price. 
The Alphano Book is a soil fer- 
tilizing guide and friend. The Lawn 
Book tells of their care and fare, 
and how to make theiri. Either or 
both, you arc welcome to. 
For those who want HL'ML'S 
only, we offer our sun-dried, com- 
posted. Natural Humus at $5 per ton 
in bulk carloads. F. O. B. Alphano, 
N. J. This we believe to be superior 
to any other natural humus on the 
market. It comes from cultivated 
I'lelds of nroven fertilitv.
