THE MINISTER had come for Sunday dinner and '6-year-old
Susan Mae was dressed up in her very best for the occa
sion. All went well until the minister asked Susan Mae what
ihe wanted to be when she
grew up. "A dog," she an
nounced. Susan Mae's moth
er yanked her out of the
room, gave her a piece of
'what-for, and marched her
tack to the minister's side.
jSusan Mae is ready to give
you a sensible answer now,"
she reported. '
That's splendid." said th
minister. "What Is it you
really want to be when you
trow up?" he coaxed.
Susan Mae glared at her
mother and declared, "A
pony."

The father of the new president of Indivisible Motors was dis
covered in a corner by a reporter at a gala party. "Tell me about
your son Ferris," asked the scribe. "Has his successful business
.career surprised you?"
"Not at all," said the father. "I knew from the start he'd be a
big wheel. That's why I named him Ferris."

The most amazing lawn
fertilizer ever developed!
Transforms scrawny, food-starved lawns
into velvety, deep green carpets of grass
The difference is in the Pellet. Now from ORTHO
comes a new lawn fertilizer: Each tiny pellet con
tains a balanced meal for your lawn. Everything for
fast green and growth plus steady, continuing nour
ishment! And, because of a new Double-Strength
formula, you actually use only half as much lawn
fertilizer as before.
In "mechanically-mixed'' fertilizers, nitrogen, phos
phate and potash components often "settle-out."
The result is uneven growth, underfed and overfed
patches of lawn. But, an exclusive new process "locks
in" balanced concentrates of these nutrients in each
ORTHO Pellet. Your lawn gets a balanced feeding,
which makes for uniform greengrowth.
Economical! Use only half as much!
Double-Strength formula means
you use only half as much as most
ordinary fertilizers. A 1-lb. coffee
can holds the right amount of
ORTHO Lawn and Garden Food
pellets to cover a lawn 200 sq. ft
Only ORTHO pellets provide balanced feedings to lawn roots'
ORTHO Lawn and Garden Food pel
lets are made by the exclusive PEC
process. Each pellet contains 16 units
of nitrogen, 16 units of phosphate and
8 units of potash. Every root gets a
balanced feeding and even, uniform
growth.
Healthier plants and shrubs, too!
Regular feedings can provide longer
stems, larger blooms and resistance to
diseases.
(ORTHO I
tarn I Gardes )
I ' FOOD I
In each ORTHO Pellet
DOUBLE-ACTION NITROGEN FOR
QUICK GREEN AND LASTING GRGaTH
Each ORTHO pellet contains two dif-,
ferent kinds of nitrogen:
1) Fast action nitrate nitrogen that
turns your lawn green fast
2) Amnionic nitrogen that stays in
the soil and keeps your lawn a
rich green for weeks and weeks.
In ach ORTHO Pellet
POTASH ACTS AS A BALANCE
FOR VIGOR AND HEALTH
This vital nutrient helps the plant
build sugar and glucose so important
to increased resistance to plant dis
ease. It also helps produce strong
stems and vigorous growth.
In each ORTHO Pellet
DOUBLE-ACTION PHOSPHATE TO
DtTELOP STRONGER, STURDIER ROOTS
Each ORTHO pellet contains two dif
ferent types of this needed nutrient
One is immediately available to the
roots thus helps develop strong,
sturdy root systems. The other is re
leased from the soil gradually for
long time feeding. '
ORTHO pellets made to be scattered by hand
No need to use expensive mechanical spreaders. Becausa
of the exclusive balanced formula in each pellet, they can
be scattered safely by hand. Then, water well to start
immediate dissolving action. Pellets have a special coat
ing which makes them free flowing dust free.
