10 Lb. Bag of Soilmaster or Acid Humus, 25c, Postage Extra

SOILMASTER 
Soilmaster is a decomposed, concentrated leaf-mold and decay¬ 
ed vegetation. This is the humus to use on lawns, around shrubs 
and in your garden. Holds seven times its weight in moisture, 
and is a good fertilizer. Rejuvenates gardens, lawns, shrubbery 
and trees; is a natural plant food, a natural soil builder; far su¬ 
perior to stable manure, has the same fertilizing value, is clean, 
odorless and does not burn; and can be applied any time and any¬ 
where. Is ideal for the farm home, garden or suburban home. Re¬ 
quires less water after application than other fertilizer as it holds 
moisture for an indefinite period. Makes the soil mellow and pre¬ 
vents baking. Soilmaster goes farther, lasts longer and is more 
economical; two-bushel bag, which is approximately 100 pounds, 
is enough for 100 square feet of lawn or 8 good sized shrubs or 
ornamentals. You are assured of a three year’s growth in two 
year’s time by using this humus. Note testimonials. 
SODUS ACID HUMUS 
Sodus Humus will hold moisture and 
has the same fertilizer value as Soil- 
master—the only difference between the 
two is that one is sour and the other is 
sweet. We recommend this Humus for 
Evergreens, Rhododendrons and Blue¬ 
berries, or any shrub or ornamental that 
requires an acid soil.

HOTKAPS—An Individual 
Hothouse for Every Plant! 
Gentlemen: Kent. Ohio 
As a result of our many years spent in the 
care of thousands of fine trees, we know that 
lawn trees must he ^ supplied with artificial 
food—more especially with humus. 
After vigorous tests and use extending over 
a period of 4 years, we are glad to say that 
Soilmaster has proven itself to be an ideal 
form of humus. Results following its use have 
been uniformly satisfactory and at times quite 
amazing. 
We therefore take pleasure in recommend¬ 
ing the use of Soilmaster. Inasmuch as it is 
taken from the natural soil deposit, there 
seems to be no danger of overfeeding or burn¬ 
ing in its generous use. Sincerely yours, 
The Davey Tree Expert Company,
