FERTILIZERS 



For the Farm 

 Lawn and Garden 



The importance of a productive soil can scarcely be estimated. If the whole people 

 prosper for any considerable time, agriculture, the very foundation of material pros- 

 perity, must be carried on at a profit. Protitable crops cannot be grown on a thin, poor 

 soil. If the land is not fertile it must be made so by fertilizing, or the farmer may be 

 forced to abandon it. It is not enough that the farmer get any pay for his labor and a 

 profit besides if he is thereby impoverishing his farm. He must so farm that he not 

 only gets pay for his labor, but at the same time maintain or increase the fertility of his 

 farm. This can be done if the farmer but understands thoroughly the principles of soil 

 fertility and puts his knowledge into practice. 



High-Grade Animal Fertilizers 



Don't be misled by persons dishonorably adopting the same name for Fertilizers as sold by us and giving cheaper 

 grade of goods. A man who does one dishonorable act will do another— look at the guaranteed analysis and see that 

 you are getting what you pay for. Names don't make the goods. 



High-Grade Potato 



We are of the opinion that there are no goods sold that will produce as rnany large marketable potatoes as this; be- 

 sides it will make the potatoes white and mealy. Potato growers should not risk a crop without using these high-grade 

 uoods. Analysis: 2 per cent Ammonia, 8 per cent Phosphoric Acid, and lo per cent Sulphate (actual) Potash. 



Ten Per Cent Trucker 



It has given our trade the greatest satisfaction. It is 

 principally used for very early crops, and has more than 

 paid for itself in the advanced prices received for early 

 vegetables. As a tobacco bed fertilizer it is excellent. 

 Analysis: lo per cent Ammonia; 5 per cent Phosphoric 

 .\cid, 3 per cent Potash. 



Seven Per Cent Trucker 



Is all right, because every user says so, and one of the 

 best evidences aside from this is that our sales show in- 

 crease year by year. We recommend this Fertilizer to 

 all who look forward to early and good crops. Analysis: 

 7 per cent Ammonia; 6 per cent Phosphoric Acid, 5 per 

 cent Potash. 



General 2-8-2 



.\ Fertilizer for general uses, that's what its name im- 

 plies. The demand has been large for just such a Fertilizer. 

 We recommend this grade for most crops. Analysis: 2 

 per cent Ammonia; 8 per cent Phosphoric Acid, 2 per cent 

 Potash. 



Pure Raw Bone Meal 



At the outset we say the bone you should buy and use 

 is Armour's, because it is pure, finely ground, and of first 

 quality. There is no bone on the market today that will 

 compare with it; and if you will give it a trail on your 

 land, we confidently believe you will agree in what we say. 

 Analysis: 4 to 5 per cent Ammonia, 24 per cent Phos- 

 phoric Acid, 40 to 45 per cent Bone Phosphate. 



Bolgiano's Truckers' Special 



This goods we have been selling for several years, and 

 our trade has grown on it most wonderfully. We recom- 

 mend it as a general crop fertilizer. This is made from 

 Animal Tankage and Potash. Those who have used it, 

 swear by it. 



C. C. C. Special Potato Fertilizer 



Persons desiring a first-class, high-grade Potato, Bean, 

 and Pea Fertilizer cannot go wrong in the use of these 

 goods. We recommend it; experience is the best teacher, 

 and has taught us that this will do all we claim for it. 

 Analysis: 2'/2 per cent Ammonia, 8 per cent Phosphoric 

 Acid, 6 per cent Potash Sulphate (actual). 



Fine Ground Dried Fish 



This fertilizing material is largely used in mixing fer- 

 tilizers. It contains a large percentage of Ammonia and 

 is quick in action. 



Fine Ground Dried Tankage 



Is used largely as a l)asc in all Animal Fertilizers, and 

 gives quick and fine results. Contains large percentage 

 of Ammonia and Phosphoric Acid. 



Plant Blood 



This is something new in the way of Fertilizers. It is 

 simply wonderful. It is safe to use, wonderful in results, 

 and can be used with economy. We distributed some of 

 these goods as samples to try, and the reports have been 

 simply astounding. We could hardly believe that which 

 has been told us regarding this fertilizer. 



Fertilizing Chemicals 



A great many first-class Gardeners and Farmers have come to see the ad- 

 vantage of the use of chemicals on their grounds and in building up their soils. 

 We have for a number of years made it a special feature of our business, and are 

 prepared to furnish any of the leading sorts in quantity — in original imported 

 packages with guaranteed analysis. 



NITRATE OF SODA. For very early vegetables, and giving an early start 

 to grass or grain there is nothing equal to it. Being almost pure Nitrogen it does 

 its work quickly and certainly. 



SULPHATE AND MURIATE OF POTASH. All soils after being in culti- 

 vation for some years need Potash in some form. It gives strength and vigor to 

 plant life, and gives body and the dark green color that indicates the necessary 

 health to good crops. 



KAINIT IS A POTASH SALT and is largely used in mixed fertilizers, and 

 also for top dressing of Asparagus, where a Potash Salt is needed. 



SOUTH CAROLINA ROCK is used for the Phosphoric Acid that it contains, 

 and is valuable in mixing with other goods.
