what Farmers Want. 
1 They want Pure Ground Bone ! 
' Why—because it contains those 
elements taken from the soil in 
the grain and carried away, thus 
impoverishing the land. Pure 
Premium Bone, made of dry, 
hard, unsteamed bones, supplies 
just this waste, as every farmer 
can learn by practical experience 
at a trifling cost. Send for a full 
explanation of how it works.
