THE SUPER PLANT-FOOD FOR LAWNS AND FLOWER GARDENS 
Mother Nature, when left to herself, sustained plant-life by returning to the soil, in the form of fallen leaves and dead plants, the 
same elements which the plants drew from it, thereby keeping up a perfect balance so that plant-life could carry on indefinitely. 
When man began to drain away the life-supporting elements of the soil by removing the plants for food, he partially overcame the loss 
by crop-rotation and the turning under, or plowing in, of green cover-crops, and this went a long way toward keeping up soil-fertility. 
But, within the narrow confines of a garden, crop-rotation and the use of cover-crops is out of the question, and a substitute for Nature’s 
methods is necessary. 
For several years, at Breck’s, we have worked on this problem and at last, in Brexone, we believe—in fact we know—that we have a 
plant-food which returns to the earth, not merely the nitrogen, phosphorus, and potash of ordinary fertilizer, but all of the elements which 
plants remove from the soil. 
Brexone has as its base (in place of the usual sand, ground rock, etc.) natural humus from decayed plants which lived ages ago, the 
same material which Nature would have returned to your garden had she been left alone; to this humus we have added, in the proper 
amounts, all of those elements mentioned above that plants require for perfect development. 
The results from the use of Brexone have been really marvelous, in fact, so much better than we had hoped for, that we have no 
hesitation in saying that Brexone for lawns and general garden use is the best plant-food obtainable today.

year. It is the result of l&ng-time study and if used according to instruc¬
