This is a
Truckload of Extra Profits
Every crop you plant can benefit from correct applications of lime.
Your fertilizer will work better. Soil organisms thrive. Organic matter releases
nutrients more rapidly. Soil structure is improved. More trace elements be
come available. Call your Agway store or representative and ask for immediate
spreader service. But do it now.
“The lime you can't
afford to miss"
Why spend money to lime your neighbors fields when you can
use moist lime and keep it where you want it.
