And Soil Conditioner Combined! 

A wonderful organic fertilizer, con- 
taining vitamins and all necessary 
elements for plant growth. Im addi- 
tion, it has a mineral base so that un- 
like other fertilizers, this peat min- 
eral base remains in your soil after 
the fertilizers have dissolved! 
This creates a permanent porosity 
which provides aeration to plant 
roots, thus retaining moisture, allow- 
ing the soil to become mulched and 
friable, and enriching and improving 
the texture of the soil. Fertilizing 
your lawn with Culturaid, will help 
to build up your soil, and the same is 
true of your garden or your flower 
bed, your roses, plants and shrubs! 
In potting plants, add 1 part Culturaid 
to 10 parts soil, or mulch it into the 
top soil. For lawns, apply 4 lbs. to 
100 sq. ft.; flower and vegetable gar- 
dens, 5 lbs. to 100 sq. ft.; shrubs and 
trees, bore holes near roots and fill 
and cover tops with soil. Analyzes 5% 
nitrogen, 10% phosphoric acid, 5% 
potash. Does not burn. 5557—Lb.,
