THE IMPORTANCE OF PROPER PLANT FOODS 
IN GROWING ANY FORM OF PLANT LIFE CANNOT BE OVEREMPHASIZED. 
WHETHER IT BE A WINDOW BOX OR A FULL FLEDGED FARM THAT IS TO BE SEEDED, 
PLEASURABLE AND PROFITABLE RESULTS CANNOT BE HAD UNLESS ADEQUATE ELE, 
MENTS OF — NITROGEN — PHOSPHORUS AND POTASH — ARE AVAILABLE FOR PLANT 
FEEDING. 
TO THE HOME OWNER WHO CULTIVATES A SMALL 
GARDEN, WE WISH TO GIVE THIS ADVICE RE¬ 
GARDING SOIL PREPARATION. 
Spade into your ground this spring or summer well 
rotted manure. It should be at least 3 months old 
to be free of the weed nuisance. 
Where you are not sure of obtaining well composted 
manures, an organic, commercial plant food can 
be more conveniently obtained and easily applied. 
We especially recommend for this purpose 
“ENGLISH FORMULA” LAWN <Sc GARDEN 
DRESSING. It should be put on at the rate of 10 
lbs. to the 100 square feet of garden area. 
The outstanding benefit of this all-round, organic 
plant food product is that it contains natural, long 
lived, plant food elements such as — Cottonseed 
Meal — Ground Bone — Hardwood Ashes — in 
combination with just a few chemicals that start 
plant feeding at once. 
“ENGLISH FORMULA” LAWN & GARDEN DRESSING, applied as above outlined, 
will give your flowers, vegetables and other plants a FULL YEAR’S FEEDING in ONE 
APPLICATION. Its economy in this respect is truly unrivaled by other fertilizers and 
plant foods non-organic in nature. 
IN addition and where composted leaves are not 
available, we suggest a liberal use of— Peat Moss. 
This vegetative fibre, mostly of imported origin, 
gives hard, clay or sandy soils an immediate humus 
value. It spurs plant growth by retaining moisture 
and allowing root systems to spread more quickly. 
Peat Moss comes neatly put up in bale and half bale 
quantities and there is no garden plot so well main¬ 
tained that it could not be improved by an applica¬ 
tion of this beneficial soil accessory. 
The full bale is most economical 
REVIEWING THIS PAGE IN A FEW WORDS—THE 
IMPORTANCE OF A GARDEN MAY BE BASED 
ON A SOIL POSSESSING VARIED AND SUF- 
FICENT PLANT FOODS, THAT IS POROUS 
ENOUGH THROUGH HUMUS PROPERTIES TO 
MAINTAIN MOISTURE SO NECESSARY TO ROOT 
DEVELOPMENT.
