STECKLER High Grade Fertilizer 



There are three chemical elements of plant food commonly used in fertilizers. 

 They are nitrogen, phosphates and potash. A balanced fertilizer is one which 

 contains all three, and gives a complete diet to the crop. And the composi- 

 tion of a balanced fertilizer is commonly expressed in a formula of three 

 numbers with hyphens between, thus 4-12-4. The first indicates the proportion 

 of nitrogen; the second, the proportion of phosphates; the third, the pro- 

 portion of potash.
