FERTO-POTS ‘* * 
FERTO-POTS produce earlier crops and more 
abundant yields. They are constructed of ma- 
nure-and fertilizer in the correct proportions 
for best plant growth and for holding the mois- 
ture at the roots of the plants. The plants are 
not removed from the pots when they are set - 
out. Simply set pot and all in the ground and 
the roots will grow right through the pot which 
slowly breaks down, furnishing valuable plant 
- food.

sizes: 
No. 2 (about 2 inches in diameter) for lettuce, 
onion and small flower plants. 
No. 244 (about 21%4 inches in diameter) for
