Big Man
There’s a man in town so
tall he has to stand on a lad
der to shave himself in fact
he has to get on his knees
just to put his hands in his
pockets When he was born
he was so big it was im
possible to name all of him
at once He has a son who s
growing so fast his shadow
can't keep up with him One
day his head grew three
inches through the top of
his hat

DON’T CHANCE IT. USE
p
■or drill or planter box application. GRANOX* seed
protectant guards small grains against attack from
,a wide spectrum of certain soil and seed-borne
diseases... bunt, smuts, seedling blight, seed
decay. Any one of them can ruin the profitability
of your crop. Cost of seed saved
alone, through increased stand, more
than pays for the GRANOX-and you gel
smut protection as well
Good “insurance"
for maximizing crop
profits. Planting
unprotected seed
today simply isn’t
worth the nsk.
Don’t chance it.
