ADCO 
Artificial 
Manure 
Converts garden refuse, such as leaves, 
stalks, cuttings, potato, bean and pea vines, 
etc., into artificial manure. 
Adco is a powder which, when mixed with 
almost any non-woody vegetable waste and 
kept moist, gradually converts the mass into 
real manure fully equal to the farmyard 
product in fertilizing power, but free from 
foul odor, flies, weed-seeds, etc. The process 
is perfectly simple and not at all laborious. 
Gardeners can now have plenty of 
manure at low cost and little trouble. 
Farmers, by utilizing straw, corn stalks, 
etc., can secure their manure without the 
expense and labor of maintaining live-stock. 
25 lbs. is sufficient to make ton of 
manure; 150 lbs. is sufficient to make 3 tons 
of manure.
