PlGE'S BOlB MEAL
FOR FERTILIZER

We supply a superior article of
Bone Meal for Fertilizer. Nearly
all concerns who furnish Bone
Meal manufacture a Bone Glue
and the gluten is removed from
the Bone before it is sold.
Pages Bone Meal is bv-pro-
duct from the manufacture of
Pages Perfected Poultry Food.
The Bones have not been boiled
to remove the gluten nor have
they been chemically treated and
we are in receipt of many COM
munications from our customers
assuring us that Pages Bone
Meal is much superior to that
which they are able to buy else
where.
There is no doubt that anatur-
al, nonchemicallv treated Meal,
like that which we furnish, is
stronger, better and proves much
more satisfactory than that
which is ordinarily supplied by
the Fertilizer trade.
We will forward a 200-pound
barrel of this Bone Meal to any
station in the New England or
Middle States for $3.50, freights
prepaid to buyers railroad sta
