WHEN 



This new pre-season delivery program becomes ef- 

 fective on December I, 1949, and extends through 

 February, 1950. 



WHAT 



By taking early delivery of Grow Crop plant foods, 

 Illinois Farm Bureau members can save money on 

 liberal pre-season discounts. Also, an ample supply 

 of high-analysis grades can be had — without delay. 



WHY 



Pre-season orders and delivery help your Illinois 

 Farm Supply Company plant at E. St. Louis main- 

 tain steady operation throughout the winter as well 

 as spring months — they avoid late spring "rush" 

 periods which boost production costs — and which 

 may make it impossible to meet your plant food 

 needs on time. 



Regular operations without a "rush" — mean 

 more savings and more Grow Crop higher analysis 



Elant foods for you and all our Farm Bureau mem- 

 er patrons.
