At $6.10 per bushel, and at average protein, that protein is
worth $.30 per lb. With same calculations, our beans are
worth $8.37 per bushel. And they are also non toxic, The cus
tomers report their livestock do much better. Production goes
up and problems come down. The demand for our customers
beans far exceeds the supply.
We Pay $B.OO Per Bu. For Yellow Beans,
$ 12 For White Beans And $3.00 For Corn
(If it is non toxic and nutritionally balanced to supply the
demand.)
With Nutri Carb you can grow your own protein, built right
into the crop. And it is better quality protein then you buy at
the mill. The herds and flocks prove it.
Nutri Carb Is the fastest thing that we know to pull toxins out
of soil. Apply it now, in the fall, to be sure you get toxic free
crops next year, eligible for the big prices, or even for your
own livestock. Nutri Carb doesn't dissipate, but lasts for years,
making It economical, .
Furthermore Nutri Carb is producing huge, healthy crops,
needing less spray and it lasts long, and the soil becomes
spongy, even deep down, which holds moisture to last into
the dry seasons.
For more details of protein value, call 717-354-7064 from
7:15 to about 8:30 A.M. I can give you the 800 number of the
company who wants the toxic free crops.

Noah Wenger said Funk has
become a legend in his own time.
He said many of us have benefited
from the Lancaster County Con
servation District’s efforts on our
own farms. “It’s good to preserve
our farmland for continued agri
culture production,” Wenger said.
“But that’s only part of the answer.
We also need to conserve the soil

agriculture.
