DO YOU LOVE YOUR CHILDREN
AND YOUR NEIGHBORS?
To prove it, stop poisoning them if you want to go
to heaven. Water is getting worse every week. Local
fish and algae die in ponds. What will happen to your
children?
Our customers have better crops than their chemi
cal neighbors anyway, especially in drought less
bugs and blight, some practically none in alfaifla,
and they can grow some kinds of excellent veget
ables without spraying which other farmers can not.
Some alfalfa has double to triple the sugar reading
over the neighbor’s chemical grown alfalfa. It’s less
brittle, less leaf shatter and can be baled sooner.
Cows love it if it was rained on.
Corn makes more protein and TON, and better fer
mentation silage.
Much less herbicide is needed for 2 reasons—No.
1 Sweet soil discourages and retards weed seed ger
mination. No. 2. Toxic soil destroys some of herbi
cide effect. Some farmers had practically weed free
fields without herbicides by using our liquid calcium
and molasses mix economically priced fertilizer.
There is no excuse to fertilize with chemicals, and
for dairymen at least, to use pesticides and thereby
poison water, humans, livestock and soil life.
“Where there is no vision the people perish.”
(Psalms)
Some of our fertilizers work fast, some slow. The
slow ones are cheap and very long lasting. Apply as
soon as crop is off for best results next year, and for
years to come. Sharp economists (plural) say the
economic balloon is ready to burst. Our products will
last many years. Prepare now to save sorrow.
A REVOLUTIONARY PRODUCT - s
dally treated soft coal. Excellent for all the following,
and other ailments, you name it. High butterfat, usu
ally a big increase. Very fast weight gains, well
proven in hogs also. Saves feed. Better weight to
feed ratio. Dysentary - quick results even If it is seri
ous. Shipping fever - excellent preventage as well as
quick recovery. Mastitis and breeding problems real
ly respdnd. Off feed - The high carbon makes a very
healthy condition in the stomach which promotes
appetite and good digestion. The latter is very impor
tant for a healthy, productive body.
Price is reasonable. Repeat orders are large. The
longer you wait the more profit you forfeit. It is well
proven in Pa., Md. and Ohio. Ask for literature. Make
appointment to talk it over, either here or on your
farm.
