The Winning Plants—ALLEN'S The winning ways of Allen's plants are made possible by the planting stocks used and the treatment they receive. Results justify their use by you. PLANTING STOCK: We use the strongest, best rooted, most vigorous, true-to-name planting stock of each variety, with virus free plants of all varieties where such plants are available. TREATMENT: 1. All our fields, in addition to being fer- tile and well drained, are fumigated before setting to eliminate or reduce nematodes which have been recognized as a serious factor in preventing the biggest possible crops. 2. A ton per acre of high grade fertilizer containing nitrogen, phosphorus and potas- sium is used during the growing season. 3. 100 lbs. of minor elements are added with each ton of fertilizer, including boron. manganese, copper, magnesium and zinc. If any plant or any variety needs one bite of one of these minor elements for maxi- mum strength and vigor it is there to be used. 4, 10 lbs. of chlorodane per acre are spread with the fertilizer. This is to kill aphis, ants, cut worms and other pests which might destroy or weaken some of the plants. 5. After the plants have started growth, in addition to good cultural practices, they receive ten or more dustings per acre with parathion dust to eliminate insect enemies like aphis, red mite, etc., and particularly the aphid which carries the virus organism. Virus free stock is kept virus free for you at ALLEN'S. RESULTS: Wonderful beds of plants of all varieties in spite of a hot, dry season. Results justify you in depending on Allen's plants for your own setting. 3
