CROW-FEZ (Crow Repellent) 
Various crow repelling preparations are now being offered 
growers for protection of planted seed corn. Invariably their cost 
is so great as to prohibit their use by the general public, and in 
consequence a demand for a more moderate priced repellent has 
come to our attention. To meet this demand and to place in the 
hands of all farmers an economically priced repellent that all 
growers could afford to use we have brought onto the market 
“Crow-Fez”—a preparation which embodies all the repelling 
qualities of the higher priced repellents at a cost to the consumer 
of about one-half the price of present repellents. ]/z pint can, 60c, 
treats 1 bu. of corn. 1 pint can, $1.00, treats 2 bu. of corn. 1 
quart can, $1.50, treats 4 bu. of corn. Prepaid. 
Legume Stimugerm Cultures 
Every crop rotation schedule should include a Legume crop. Legumes, when 
inoculated with the proper bacteria draw nitrogen from the air and convert it into 
nitrate form, suitable as plant food. Much of this is stored in nodules on the roots 
of the plants for the benefit of future crops, and when the crop itself is turned under, 
the nitrogen in the plants is also returned to the soil. 
Cultures are obtainable for Alfalfa and all of the Clovers. ^2 bushel size, 35c; 1 
bushel 65c; 21^ bushels $1.40. 
Culture for Peas, including Canada Field, Garden and Sweet; Beans, including 
Garden, Lima, Soy, and Velvet; Lupines and Vetch can be had in the bushel size at 
35c; 2 bushels, 65c; 5 bushels, $1.40. Prepaid. 
Be sure to specify what crop culture is to be used for. 
Pot Labels and Garden Stakes Keep a record of the kind and variety 
of seeds sown, dates, etc. Every gardener should use stakes and labels.
