OUR CUSTOMERS ARE GETTING
BETTER CROPS AT
LESS COST
HOW AND WHY?
More spongy soil - less drought effect.
More minerals and trace elements - less bugs which are sent to
clean up deficient, half dead crops, for a clean environment.
More unidentified factor - less disease, blight and fungus.
More and better protein - less expense - your profit is your
income minus your expense.
Healthier, more nutritious crops - less vet, and pesticide bills
Livestock produce more but eat less feed.
Don't the feed companies tell you that the better they make a
feed, the better the feed efficiency or ratio is? Why will not the
same principle work when you use the Creator’s wisdom and go
back to nature? That is basic and the soil .is basic. Health starts in
the soil.
We sell the goodies that produce the above results - SOFT
ROCK PHOSPHATE
Direct from mines, by R.R., bulk, only $95 per ton, plus $lO
- spreading.
50. lb. bags - $lO5 per ton. Applied in stables and chicken
houses, holds ammonia and nitrogen and multiplies bacteria.
Corn experimental station wrote it more than doubled their crop,
than where they applied phosphate and manure separate.
Used with starter fertilizer, some got about 200 bu. or over of
corn per A locally, the last two seasons.
One reported 90 bu. wheat per acre with our treatment and no
fertilizer in the fall. In the last 3 years we have learned what dicks
organically.
APPLY IN FALL - Better available next year. Doesn’t
leach or evaporate. Lasts for years. Also better spreading con
ditions and faster service in fall. We have no bulk storage.
For wet fields because of tight subsoil, and compacted or clay
type soil, use our guaranteed liquid soil treatment. Only $4.80
per acre. Less in quantity. Fall is best time. We have happy
repeat customers.
For clogged septic tank absorption fields use our guaranteed
DOWNWARD to open it up. By same company. $5.95.
Ask for our new whole fertilizer program literature, ready in
Dec.
SOIL TESTING DONE HERE. No long wait. Get it
done before the spring rush. We understand our own tests better
to tell you how to get that big crop.
