NATURE CAN HELP IN OUR ENERGY CRISIS AND HIGH
FERTILIZER COSTS, being proven by thousands of farmers across the country,
through soil bacteria doing nitrogen fixation out of the air which is 80% N , and to a lesser
degree also phosphorus and potash Natural organic fertilizer lets the bacteria live and
multiply but you can speed it up tremendously by applying cultured bacteria tike Agnspon
and BX Agnspon is good if used correctly, not abused by chemicals We sell it BX is a
tougher bacteria, very prolific, a super strain Local soil analysis tests show that BX in
creased nitrogen from 12 lbs an acre to 90 lbs from Dec to July without adding nitrogen
except a fair application of cow manure, soft rock phosphate and lime Another test in
creased nitrogen almost that much in 2 qt containers of soil in our store from Feb to July
with no nitrogen or manure added And BX does more than that It restores health to sick
crops including the dreaded asparagus disease, no alfalfa spray needed, better nutrition in
crops, bigger roots for drought, improves soil tilth, cuts NPK needs considerably Could tell
you more but you might judge us untruthful If you want to farm without bacteria by having
killed them and making no change, that is your business
GOOD BACTERIA are also doing wonders in animal’s stomachs Our formula sileage
moculant has made 15% better feed efficiency with cattle at Kansas State University
Sileage doesn’t get so hot, thus keeps it’s vitamins and enzymes, and the yogurt family type
bacteria cause better digestion, purer blood, hence better breeding, etc
SOFT ROCK PHOSPHATE has proven itself, very unusual high sugar content in crops
■difference 50% increase more or less compared to cpmpetition, which determines food and
feed value We have very good reports already Comparison tests will improve by harvest
time because it lasts long Still same price, $BO per ton bulk plus spreading, $9O in bags
THE REAMS PROGRAM proves that livestock farmers have plenty potash for at least a
while Therefore rock phosphate and BX is your answer But if you wish to have sft alfalfa,
100 bu beans, 200 or more bu corn, we can supply you with a few extra items recom
mended by Reams for your particular need according to soil tests We do the testing in our
shop
/ I
And by all means start this fall for 5 reasons #1 Spread out the season, avoid the spring
rush We’ll be busy, trucks scarce #2 - Truck packing can freeze out again #3 - These
products (bacteria and phosphate) take time to do their best and they will not leach out or
dissipate #4 - Bacteria have time to decompose stalks or cover crops #5 - We’ll have more
time to teach you the high yielding Reams program Winter teaching needs fall orders
MINERAL 72 rail car from Nevada was lost Should soon be here now Contains 72 dif
ferent minerals Excellent reports from Louisianna State University for soil and livestock
both Terrific feed efficiency Organic schools call for extra minerals on soil Only $l5O per
ton off the car this time An introductory offer from the company Get your name in so we can
call you when it comes

* Phosphate orders can be pooled and cars unloaded in other counties and states
* Dealers wanted for BX and mineral 72 They will become popular
* We also have a soil conditioner with a good 3 year local proof for breaking hardpans,
draining swamps mellowing clay thus increasing yields Very economical Big price
reduction Foosoms and mellows compacted soil quickly
