SEED TREATMENTS 

SEMESAN 
Mates Good Seed Grow Better 
We have been using and recommending Semesan for 
over 16 years and we are convinced by our long experi- 
ence on our own farm and greenhouses that it is the most 
effective seed disinfectant and protectant available 
today. In our greenhouses, Semesan has proved very 
reliable in preventing ‘‘damping off” of seedlings. Water- 
ing the flats with the “‘normal’’ Semesan solution gives excellent control. 
Treatment with the various Semesan products listed below effectively 
cleanses vegetable, flower and field seed of most seed borne organisms 
and diseases, in most cases increasing the stand and consequently the 
crop. Semesan is easy to use with full directions on each package. 
SEMESAN—For Vegetable and Flower Seeds 
Widely used as a seed treatment to control seed borne diseases and 
molds, and to protect the seed from attack by fungi or other organisms 
in the soil which cause rotting. Safe to use on nearly all kinds of seed, 
and highly effective. May also be used in liquid form as a spray to control 
damping off, etc. Full directions with each package. 
1, Oz. 10c; 2 Oz. 40c; 1 Lb. $2.50; 5 Lbs. $11.40. Not prepaid. 
SEMESAN JR.—For Field and Sweet Corn 
An inexpensive and highly effective seed treatment for both field and 
sweet corn. 
Its use protects the seed from rotting in the ground, improves stands 
and makes possible earlier planting which generally results in earlier 
crops and increased yields. We use it on all our plantings of corn. On one 
planting alone of sweet corn it nearly doubled the yield of corn for us. 
The cost is so little that growers cannot afford to plant corn that has 
not been treated. 114 oz. treats 1 bu. seed. 
11, Oz. 15c; 12 Oz. 60c; 61/4, Lbs. $3.75. Not prepaid. 
SEMESAN BEL—For Seed Potatoes 
Two ounces will treat up to 7 bu., and one pound of the New Improved 
Semesan Bel will treat 50 to 60 bu. of whole potatoes. It possesses great 
disease control properties especially in respect to Rhizoctonia and seed 
born Scab. The ‘“‘Instantaneous dip” method saves time and labor. 
2 Oz. 30c; 1 Lb. $1.65; 5 Lbs. $7.15. Not prepaid. 
CERESAN—For Wheat, Oats, Barley and other Grains 
Recommended by leading authorities. This is the only dust dis- 
infectant which has effectively controlled such grain diseases as stinking 
smut of wheat, stripe disease of barley, loose smut of barley and oats. It 
will not harm the seed or grain drill. Only 14 oz. required to effectively 
treat a bushel of wheat, oats or barley. 
4 Oz. 30c; 1 Lb. 80c; 4 Lbs. $2.70. Not prepaid.

grafting, and many other purposes. It is very economical to use as it 
costs less than twine. Comes in braided plaits or hanks.

SPERGON 
New Seed Treatment for Peas, Lima Beans and other Seeds 
An extremely effective seed treatment for combatting seed-borne 
fungi and protecting seed against rotting in the ground. Field tests have 
proved that Spergon not only improves stands but actually stimulates 
growth and produces greater yields. ; 
For lima beans it is the best and safest treatment and is especially 
valuable as it permits earlier planting of this sensitive crop. ‘ 
On peas it gives excellent protection against rotting in the soil and 
produces heavier and more vigorous plants. Treated seed may be sown 
in a drill without graphite. 
Also recommended for many other crops, as it is safe to use on almost 
any seed. It effectively prevents injury to seed of cucumbers, melons, 
peppers, eggplant, squash, etc. by destructive bacteria or fungi which 
are nearly always present in the soil. 
2 oz. treats 1 bu. of peas or lima beans. 
2 Oz. 45c; 1 Lb. $2.50; 5 Lbs. $10.50; 10 Lbs. $19.50. Postpaid. 

The Original Legume Inoculator\ 
NOBBE-HILTNER PROCESS 
RAGI 
TRADE MARK REG'D. DEC.6,1896 NO. 32212 
Restores and Maintains Soil Fertility 

Legume Inoculant, Stimulates Growth and Enriches the Soil. 
All legumes, Clovers, Peas, Beans, Vetch, etc., are greatly stimulated 
in growth, producing larger and better crops when certain bacteria 
grow on their roots forming nodules. These nodules take nitrogen from 
the air for use by the plants and actually enrich the soil at the same time. 
The success of this inoculant has been outstanding and we recommend 
it highly. It is a moist-humus culture. Contains millions of live legume 
bacteria. The material is fresh (all cans are dated) and the bacterial 
count is placed on each package. Easy to apply. Directions on each can. 
Note: Different groups of plants require different cultures. For example, 
the same culture can be used for Alfalfa and Sweet Clover, but Alfalfa 
and Red Clover each require a different culture. Be sure to note, and 
when ordering get the proper culture for each of the seeds you wish 
to treat.
