A WORD TO THE WISE ABOUT FERTILIZERS: Don't be deceived by a high-sounding name, 
ee en ene eee errr a highly advertized brand or a beautifully 
printed bag or carton when you buy fertilizer. Results are what you want when you 
spend good money and time fertilizing your lawn, flowers and shrubbery. We can 
furnish you with the ingredients to make your own fertilizers to suit your purpose 
or the above items ready to use. 
Remember a state law in South Carolina now requires the fertilizer manufactur- 
er to put an analysis tag on each original bag of fertilizer which shows exactly 
what the fertilizer is composed of and the chemical elements it furnishes. 
We carry a 5-10-5 fertilizer which is made especially for lawns, flowers and 
shrubbery which is equal to any brand on the market. And-the price is strictly in 
keeping with other grades of commercial fertilizers -- a whole 200 pound bag for 
only $3.25. Smaller quantities priced on request. 
You are cordially invited to visit us at our store or call us on the tele- 
phone when you are interested in anything in our line. We make deliveries all 
over the city and surrounding suburbs every day. If you want us to sow your lawn 
for you we will do this at a reasonable price. 
Yours very truly,
