overhead expense of manufacturing, storing, handling and dis- 
tributing on your fields is the same for the actual plant food as 
it is for the other materials which simply make up bulk. These 
figures tell why. Consider our 7-12-7 at $48.00 per ton. This 
high-grade fertilizer has a total number of 26 availaple units. 
Dividing 26 into $48.00 equals $1.87 cost per unit.

total of 16 units at $33,00 per ton will cost $2.06 per unit. These 
figures, however, do not take into account your cost of distribut- 
ing, which would make the highest grade sti!l more economical to 
use because it would require over 50% more 4-8-4 to equal the
