Add “VIGORO BEAUTY” to Your 
LAWN, FLOWERS and SHRUBS 
Enthusiastic gardeners everywhere attrib- : 
ute much of their success to Vigoro. 
COMPLETE PLANT FOOD 
Vigoro, made by Swift & Company, 
supplies all growing things with the vital 
nourishment they require to attain finest 
growth and beauty. 
You'll prefer using Vigoro because it’s 
clean, odorless, sanitary, and easy to use, as 
well as economical. 
The makers of Vigoro describe it as a complete plant food, and they are correct, for 
it contains thirteen elements, as compared with the four that are in ordinary commercial 
fertilizers even with the same chemical analysis. 
But we personally regard Vigoro as a “wonder” plant food. For we have recently ob- 
served some results on our own lawn that were truly breath-taking. We actually had 
results in growth and color of grass in six days that we would have been happy to obtain 
in six weeks or even six months. You just can’t conceive of what Vigoro will do until 
you have tested it. Some folks say it will burn your grass. Of course it will if applied 
too heavily (but only for a short time; the grass will soon overcome the burn), but any 
fertilizer will do that. There is no more reason for applying it too heavily than there is 
for taking an overdose of medicine. Besides, its potency only proves that you are 
“getting something for your money.” Vigoro is good for all plant life—grass, shrubs, 
trees, gardens and field crops. In the end it is cheaper than ordinary fertilizer.

Peat Moss, Horticultural 
Here is another wonderful product—different from Vigoro, 
of course, but what it will do to your soil is truly remarkable. 
Proof of its merit is found in the fact that virtually no nurs- 
erles or greenhouses are ever without peat moss. It is com- 
mon for a nursery to use up to ten carloads a year. The man- 
g ager of one large nursery told us, “We just couldn’t get along 
without peat moss.”’ 
Peat Moss mulches your soil and literally acts as a sponge 
to absorb moisture until needed. It prevents soil from baking and finally decomposes 
and becomes humus, which practically all areas and kinds of soil badly need. Every 
flower and vegetable garden, even truck patches and larger areas, should have an oc- 
casional application of Horticultural Peat Moss. Full bale, about 10 bus., $4.50, all
