More profit per acre 



HOW? 



Manufacturers have found that their 

 costs per unit of production whether it be a 

 pair of shoes, a machine or a yard of cloth, 

 are reduced by increasing the output of the 

 factory. The same principle applies on the 

 farm. Increasing the yield per acre reduces 

 the cost per bushel, thus making more profit. 

 Increased production chiefly depends on 

 increased available fertility which is obtained 

 by the use of high grade fertilizers.
