(THIS FALL YET) BACK TO NATURE IS THE ANSWER FOR PESTILENCE AND DISEASE WE ARE PROVING IT BIOLOGICAL FARMING MAKES AND SAVES MANY $ $ $ Because it conserves energy - fertilizer & horsepower. (bacteria & earthworms make plant food & loosen the soil) Because it prevents pollution - that dreaded foe. Because it produces food fit to eat & saves doctor bills. Because it preserves the soil for our sons - it is no dead end street (that more chemicals you use, the more you have to use later) It does all the above & costs less, especially if you use our soil innoculant - AGRISPON, which is being highly proven, near & far, including foreign countries on millions of acres. They are desperate and see the value of it. It replenishes the life to the soil which has been killed by toxins. Therefore, you need much less fertilizer. Soil tests prove it. Only $6.50 per acre. If you need fertilizer, use our long lasting, health promoting FERTRELL. Blue label is especially good for alfalfa & grasses. SOIL CONDITIONER, another product, is especially good in breaking hard pan & loosening the soil from top to bottom for better root growth & water holding capacity Only $2.70 per acre. In liquid form. Apply above products on hay & gram fields as soon as crop is off, for fast decomposition of stalks - early soil conditioning. Only rotted stalks are fertilizer. Unrotted are nitrogen consumers next year Though we sell fertilizer, we teach for your survival. Our program is winning because it was designed by the Creator. For service of a tractor, don’t you use the manual of the maker 7 We have soil testing, spreading & non-toxic spraying service. Fall is the best time for organic.
