DON’T WASTE GARDEN RUBBISH— 
CONSERVE IT BY USING ADCO 
Garden wastes, including leaves and grass 
clippings are too valuable to burn or other- 
wise destroy. Convert them easily into rich, 
organic manure by employing ADCO, a pow- 
der which when mixed with vegetable waste 
and kept moist gradually converts the mate- 
rial into real manure free from weed seeds. 
The method of using ADCO is simple. Any- 
body can use it. Spread your farm and garden 
rubbish (either in a heap on top of the 
ground, in a large crate, or in a shallow pit) 
and every time it becomes 6 inches higher, wet 
it down, sprinkle with ADCO, and tramp or 
tamp it down. Repeat these steps until all 
the rubbish is used, and at least once, at the 
end of a month, turn it over. In three months 
or so you will be rewarded with a fine lot of 
rich, clean, organic fertilizer. 
Adco. The addition of Adco to the compost 
pile or to other vegetable refuse, grass clip- 
pings, etc. at the rate of 2 lbs. to each wheel- 
barrow load of refuse, will produce a clean, 
odorless manure within 3 or 4 months.

Know Your Soil 
Plants of all kinds need a balanced 
diet if they are to yield maximum growth. 
The only way to insure a balanced diet is | 
to first test the soil and then add the | 
missing chemicals according to the soil’s 
needs. 
The Sudbury Soil-Testing Kit is 
practical and easy to use. It provides a 
simple method of determining the nitro- 
gen, phosphorus and potash contents, 
and also whether the soil is acid or | 
alkaline. 
The use of the Sudbury Soil-Testing 
Kit eliminates guesswork and provides | 
actual knowledge of what Plant Foods 
are needed and how much to apply.
