Holiday time is a time to celebrate a
time to treat yourself and your family or
guests to something rich and delectable like
a luscious pie. To fill the bill we have Black
Bottom Eggnog Pie. The bottom layer is so
chocolatey delicious, the second layer so cus- i
tard sumptuous and the final topping so V*
whipped creamy. Black bottom pies are cus- Vs
tard chiffons made with egg and milk. They 2
are usually based on a crumb crust. 3
OUR COMPETITION TELLS US THAT
WE'RE HARD-NOSED ABOUT FERTILIZER?
Long ago, in 1904, we decided to manufacture only the best
possible fertilizer. We discovered that most of our custo
mers couldn’t afford to take chances with “Bargain-price”
fertilizer. They want Premium fertilizer that takes high
production punishment. The best advertisement we, of
FARMERS’ FERTILIZER WORKS have, is the many satis
fied customers.
True, FARMERS’ FERTILIZERS may cost a little
more to buy, but our many customers find that whatever
extra they pay is well worth the higher yields they produce
season after season. Remember
FARMERS’ FERTILIZER “As good as the best, and bet
ter than the rest” Call us now, for prompt service and
. premium fertilizer.

Two important things
when borrowing money,
You need a sharp pencil plus the specialized financial advice
of Farm Credit to determine how your financial needs can
best be served. Farm production must be maintained, even
, increased if possible. Providing the financing to insure this is
1 Farm Credit’s job. Farm Credit loans are available now for any
sound farm need. And, at realistic rates. Farm -tACr*. |
Credit interest is based on the unpaid balance i
of the loan. That saves you money.
