TREAT YOUR POTATOES WITH SEMESAN 
BEL BEFORE PLANTING 
The modern superior way of disinfecting seed 
Potatoes is with Semesan Bel, the instantane¬ 
ous dip. easily used without expensive equip¬ 
ment. It does away with long-time soaking 
of the seed and effectively coats them with a 
disinfectant which commonly remains on the 
seed piece throughout the season. Write for

TOBACCO 
(Tabaeo) 
Culture: A clean piece of soil is best for 
Tobacco Plant beds, hence it is customary to 
burn a piece of land for this use. Insects, 
grass and weed seeds are thus destroyed and 
the burning adds to the fertility of the soil. 
Cover seed very lightly, and when plants are 
large enough, set in 3%-ft. rows, 3 feet be¬ 
tween the plants.

rich bright leaf, large, long and broad. This

color. 
Price of above. Pkt., 10c; oz.. 50c; 14 lb..

Good Seed and Bad Seed 
Good seed and bad seed may look alike. The 
only way to be sure of getting good seed is to 
be able to trust your source of supply. It is 
better to pay a fair price for good seed—for 
seed which you can trust—than to pay a low 
price for seeds of doubtful quality.
