Sow in the open ground as early as possible, barely covering the seed. If
the hotbed is used, let it be started quite early. Give but little heat and plen-
ty of water and air on fine days. Let plants in the beds be about four inches
apart. As they increase in size thin them out, or they will become weak. One-
half ounce will sow one-hundred feet of drill.

Arsenate of Lead
_ The Great Summer Spray. Arsenate of Lead is the great spray for cod-

concentrated form of arsenical poison, putup in the shape of a heavy, dense
white paste, which mixes well with water, although not soluble. Its complete
insolubilty makes it perfectly safe to apply at any strength without burning
the foliage. In this and its great adhesive qualities lies its superiority to Paris
Green and other insecticides. It is mixed with water at the rate of two or
more pounds to 50 gallons, and applied as a spray. Fuildirections on each pkge.

“| TESTED BULK SEEDS

r, Gti
Remember thet we handle only tested bulk seeds, no old package
seeds to work off that have laid on the shelf for years.
In buying package seeds you never know how old the seeds are,
as the dealers send them out vear after year, until sold.
Buy Our Tested Seeds in Bulk and Insure Your Crop.
36 D. A. White & Sons, Feedmen and Seedmen
Our Feed Department.
We handle everything usually carried in any Feed and Seed store
including a full line of Mill Feed, Oats, Wheat, Barley, Chop and
Rolled Grain of all kinds; Flour and Cereals, Hay and Straw; Pota-
toes for seed and for table use, and a complete stock of Poultry and
Bee Supplies.
We have three large warehouses, besides two smaller warehouses,
and our large retail store room, so that we have ample room to handle
our large and growing business to the best advantage. This gives us
an opportunity to meet all competition and give our customers the
benefit of our system of handling merchandise.
Grain Rolling.
We have a large power roller, and do a large amount of custom
work. Our roller has one feature not found on many grain rolleys, in
that all the grain is screened and fanned before cleaning. This in-
sures that your feed will be absolutely clean.
Grain and Seed Cleaner.
We have installed a large power cleaner for the purpose of clean-
ing all kinds of seeds and seed grain, both for our own use and for
the purpose of doing custom work. Get over the habit of sowing
dirty seed, and have all your grain cleaned in first class shape before
you seed.
We deliver free to anv place in. the city and to all the freight de-
pots. We make a specialty of mail orders, and give them prompt
attention.
We are always glad to quote prices; just drop us a card and we

“Clipper” Grain and Seed Cleaner
We have recently added a :arge power cleaner and are now prepared
to clean all kinds of seed grain, clover seeds, grass seeds, vetch seeds, ete.
We can clean far better than with a hand cleaner, as the fan runs
more even and we can better regulate the wind blast.
Our machine is equipped wlth air controller, traveling brushes, and
a full assortment of screens, and does fine work.
Do not sow foul seeds, but reciean your grain and all seeds, and have
your land produce a good crop instead of .a lot of foul weeds. Our
charges are reasonable and we gnarantee our work.
We are also local agents for this well known cleaner, and will be
glad to show you what they will do at any time.
