A Wonderful Plant Food 
Five years ago we determined to give our trade the finest 
possible organic plant food money could produce for all¬ 
round use. 
Since that time the sales of ENGLISH FORMULA 
Lawn and Garden Dressing have exceeded our best ex¬ 
pectations through the repeat orders of its users. 
For greenhouse work we have been assured it has no 
superiors. In the five short years it has existed it has 
proven itself an equal to the most expensive imported 
organic plant food products selling at twice the cost. 
Three outstanding things regarding its values are these: 
1. It produces a sort of antiseptic reaction when applied 
to soil containing excessive ground bacteria and 
organisms usually harmful to germination and the 
start of healthy plant growth. 
2. An alkaline reaction results upon its application 
producing a slightly sweetening effect that brings 
out what dormant plant foods already exist in the 
soil in addition to that which it adds. 
3. A permanancy of plant food value not found with 
others at or near its price. You can depend upon it 
to see your plants through under the most trying 
weather or soil conditions. 
Our offer that originally introduced this unusual 
product to skeptical buyers still stands. If upon the purchase 
of 100 lbs. of ENGLISH FORMULA for greenhouse or field 
use, and after its trial for six months, you are not convinced 
of its unquestionable superiority, your purchase price will 
be refunded promptly and without question.
