FERTILIZERS 



HIGH-GRADE ANIMAL FERTILIZERS 



Don't be milled by persons dishonorably adopting the same name for Fertilizers as sold 

 ad giving cheaper grade of goods. A man who does one dishonorable act will do 

 another — lock at the guaranteed analysis and see that you are getting what you pay for. 

 ^k. ^fc.^gC 7 ".. t L "VX Names don't make the goods. 



J Sl Tff^ * ' 4 The importance oi a productive soil can scarcely be estimated. If the whole people pros- 



per tor any considerable time, agriculture, the very foundation of material prosperity, must 

 be carried on at a profit. Profitable crop- 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 aban- 

 don it. It is not enough that the farmer get any pay for his labor and a profit besides if 

 he is thereby impoverishing hi- farm. He mu-t 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 knowl- 

 edge into practice. 



PULVERIZED SHEEP MANURE AND SHREDDED CATTLE MANURE is a par- 

 efficient material for making up the compost supply. It is used in this way by 

 many florists who have limited -pace and who cannot mix their compost in the old way. 

 It acts quicklv, has a better effect on the soil and is much more easily handled 

 HIGH-GRADE POTATO 

 We are of the opinion that there are no good- >old that will produce as many 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 

 roods. Analysis: 2 per cent. Ammonia; 8 per cent. Phosphoric Acid, and 10 per cent. Sulphate (actual) Potash. 



PURE RAW BONE MEAL 



TEN PER CENT. TRUCKER 

 It has given our trade the greate- 

 isfaction. It it principally used for very 

 early crops, and has more than paid for its 

 self in the advanced prices received for 

 early vegetables. As a tobacco bed fer- 

 tilizer it is excellent. Analysis: 10 per 

 cent. Ammonia; 5 per cent. Phosphoric 

 Acid, 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 increase 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 



A Fertilizer for general uses, that's what i 

 its name implies. The demand has been / 

 large for just such a Fertilizer. We rec- >C 

 ommend this grade for most crops. Analy- "w 

 sis: 2 per cent. Ammonia: 8 per cent. 

 Phosphoric Acid; 2 per cent. Potash. 



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 

 trial on your land, we confidently believe 

 you will agree in what we say. Analysis: 

 4 to 5 per cent. Ammonia; 24 per cent. 

 Phosphoric Acid; 40 to 45 per cent. Bone 

 Phosphate. 



BOLGIANO'S TRUCKERS' SPECIAL 

 This goods we have been selling for sev- 

 eral years, and our trade has grown on it 

 most wonderfully. We recommend 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 rec- 

 \ ommend it; experience is the best teacher, 

 ^=\ and has taught us that this will do all we 

 — i — -claim for it. Analysis: 2]/ 2 per cent. Am- 

 monia; 8 per cent. Phosphoric Acid; 6 per 

 cent. Potash Sulphate (actual). 

 FINE GROUND DRIED FISH 

 This Fertilizing material is largely used in mixing fertilizers. It contains a large percentage of Ammonia and is 

 quick in action. FINE GROUND DRIED TANKAGE 



Is used largely as a base in all Animal Fertilizers, and gives quick and fine results. Contains large percentage of 

 Ammonia and Phosphoric Acid. AMMONIA BONE FERTILIZER 



This is used largely by the best Truckers for general crops. Analysis: 2 per cent. Ammonia; 9 per cent. Phos- 

 phoric Acid; 2 per cent. Potash. BOLGIANO'S POTATO FERTILIZER 



After careful study and testing we have formed a mixture of Fertilizer ingredients that have proven to give most ex- 

 cellent results in the growth of potatoes. Analysis: 3 per cent. Ammonia; 8 per cent. Phosphoric Acid; 5 per cent. 

 Sulphate of Potash. 



FERTILIZING CHEMICALS 



A great many first-class Gardeners and Farmers have come to see the advantage of the use of 



~» ~t-^ ~^> chemicals on their grounds and in building up their soils. We have for a number of years made 

 uuggs^ssM tnii a special feature of our business, and are prepared to furnish any of the leading sorts in 

 §J*ST *38E quantity — in original imported packages with guaranteed analysis. 

 %g -y/S BON ARBOR FERTILIZER 



W 7 *T Soluble Plant Life. 



'filMPBOPI Nitrogen, 16 to 18 per cent.; Phosphoric Acid, 6 to 7 per cent.; Potash, 4 to 5 per cent. For 



7 V=>\ house, garden and greenhouse plants, it has no equal as a stimulant and plant starter. Price, 

 \i. _- fl >#■ y 2 lb., 20c; 1 lb., 30c; 5 lbs., $1.25; 100 lbs., $20.00. 



NITRATE OF SODA 

 For very early vegetables, and giving an early start to grass or grain there is nothing equal to 

 Being almost pure Nitrogen it does its work quickly and certainly. 

 SULPHATE AND MURIATE OF POTASH 

 All soils after being in cultivation for some years need Potash in some form. It gives strength and vigor to plant 

 life, and gives body and the dark green color 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.
