FARMOGERM SEED INOCULATION 
HIGH BRED NITROGEN GATHERING BACTERIA 
Always inoculate all your legume seeds if you want the biggest yield and the maximum 
fertilizing value. No matter how big a crop you arc getting. Farmogerm will improve it 
and increase the amount of nitrogen stored up for future use in the form of nodules on the 
.roots. 
Farmogerm Bacteria have been bred up for eleven years in the laboratory by a great- 
expert. They have been grown, sorted and developed until they arc many times more 
active than the ordinary bacteria you find in the soil. 
Farmogerm is supplied in a bottle with a patented ventilating stopper. This insures 
the bacteria being alive and active for at least five years. This exclusive Farmogerm 
feature is your insurance for thorough inoculation. Farmogerm is always fresh. It is 
easy and simple to use. Full directions are on every bottle. 
We supply Farmogerm for Alfalfa, Vetches, Peanuts, All Clovers, Sweet Peas and 
Every Variety of Field and Garden Peas and Beans.

THE “BIG CROP 
TESTER 
SOIL 
The “BIG CROP” Soil Test tells whether or not any piece of land is in the 
proper condition to produce a “BIG CROP” and serves you as a guide how to 
correct faulty soil conditions. 
CUTS OUT GUESS WORK. Every crop cats up lime and manure, every rain 
washes lime and manure out of the soil; these are the reasons why most of the 
soils on a farm are either short in lime or manure or both. No man can tell by 
the looks of a soil or by making a jack knife or a palm test whether a soil is short 
in lime and manure. The only way to tell is by making a test with the “BIG 
CROP” Soil Tester, which alone furnishes the sure proof. 
If you know each year by testing each field with the “BIG CROP” Soil Tester, 
how much lime and manure is left, then you can add enough, where it will pay 
the biggest returns instead of spreading it where it is not needed and cannot 
be made to pay. 
In particular it will tell you— 
Whether or not your soil needs lime and how much per 
acre. 
Whether or not manure (organic matter) is needed. 
Whether or not your soil needs inoculating for alfalfa, 
clovers, cow peas, soybeans, vetch and other le¬ 
gumes. 
Where and where not green manuring will pay. 
Which fields on your farm are best adapted to alfalfa, 
clovers, grain, corn, potatoes, vegetables, etc. 
Where and where not to apply chemical fertilizers 
and how to use them at the least possible loss through 
leaching. 
How to build up worn, thin, neglected soils propcrly 
and systematically.

THE OUT-U-KUM 
A Push and a Pull, That’s All, 
Out Comes Weed, Root and All 
The accompanying illustra¬ 
tion will convince anyone of 
the simplicity and certainty of 
extracting the weed without 
cutting or breaking the root, 
thus putting an end to it. 
Directions . — Hold the trade- 
marked side toward the weed 
and push deep into the ground, 
close to its center, at an angle 
of about 80 degrees. The bridge 
will then slip down alongside 
the root and pass under the tip 
as the tool is withdrawn, the 
bridge will scoop up behind the 
root and force it into the slot; 
it is then lifted out without 
leaving a hole or in any way 
disturbing the lawn. 
The tool has no sharp edge, 
and is not intended to grip or 
pry. The operation merely 
loosens and clears the soil from 
the root. Price, $1.35.
