Modern Plant Feeding---Lampwicl< System Gives Best Results 
SOILADE —the longer lasting plant food—produces phenomenal results with 
lawns, shrubs, flowers and plants of every kind, because it is a scientific product 
based on modern scientific knowledge of plant requirements. It differs entirely 
from ordinary fertilizers, in the nature of its ingredients, its action on plants and 
its method of operation. 
SOILADE works like a wick. It feeds its rich nourishment to the roots of the 
plant uniformly and gradually—a little at a time—just as the lamp wick delivers 
oil to the burner. This principle is entirely new in plant feeding. SOILADE, 
alone amongst all plant foods, embodies this system of continuous—day by day— 
hour by hour—uniform feeding. 
Your garden will thrive vigorously with the rich, rare elements which SOILADE 
contains. Brighter, more abundant blooms. Healthier, stouter stems. Less trou¬ 
ble from insects. Roses fed with SOILADE have longer, stronger stems, develop 
more buds and are of more brilliant color. The roses last longer after cutting— 
and this applies to all cut flowers when SOILADE is used. Lawns flourish and 
stay green twice as long when fed with this marvelous new Plant Food. 
SOILADE is economical because one pound does the work of two pounds of 
ordinary fertilizer. 5 lbs. 50c; 10 lbs. 85c; 25 lbs. $1.75; 50 lbs. $2.50; 100 lbs. 
$4.00. Prices quoted are f.o.b. Plant City or any Kilgore store. Prices on larger 
quantities are proportionately lower and will be furnished on request. 
Wizard Brand Sfi eep Ma nure Will Make Your Plants G row 
There is nothing better as a general fertilizer for the home grounds than this 
natural soil-building plant-food. Wizard is pure sheep manure, highly concentrated, 
with all weed seeds killed. It supplies the humus and natural plant-food so much 
needed by Florida soils. Feed your plants with Wizard—then watch them grow. 
Wizard is lasting in its action. There is nothing better for lawns, shrubs, flowers, 
fruits, and vegetables. 
For New Lawns use 10 to 12 pounds per 100 square feet and rake into the sur¬ 
face soil. On old lawns use 8 to 10 pounds per 100 square feet scattered broadcast 
and wet down with a hose. 
For Flowers and Shrubs mix a handful of Wizard with the soil around each plant 
when setting out the new plants; more for shrubs, vines, and trees. On estab¬ 
lished plants mix a handful in the surface soil around each plant; for shrubs and 
vines use 1 to 5 pounds, for trees 5 to 20 pounds, according to size. 
For Fruits and Vegetables use 1000 to 1500 pounds per acre. Apply with a drill 
in the row or hill. Wizard is a most profitable and lasting soil-building fertilizer.
