FERTILE POTS FOR BETTER, EARLIER CROPS 
These manure pots are now better than ever due to a change in 
their composition which insures a more even plant growth. 
Plants raised in them can be set out in the field without any 
check of growth, the pots furnishing plant food as they break 
down in the soil. By setting the pot and all in the field a great 
deal of labor is saved.
