ARMOUR’S PURE ANIMAL FERTILIZERS 
Some seed doesn’t bring harvest, but you can’t harvest without seed. This is an unfailing principle. 
There are many other conditions which must be met to insure even a fair harvest. The seed must have 
attention — must be fed and carefully tended — the seed must be made to grow. It receives its nourishment 
from the soil, consequently the soil must be fed with the plant-food necessary for the proper nutrition of the 
plants. This is supplied by the application of proper fertilizers. Farm fertilizers are good, but in most cases 
they do not supply in sufficient quantity and balance the elements necessary to the highest soil fertility or 
crop development. This is found in the best form in the Armour Pure Animal Fertilizers. The brands pro- 
duced by the Armour Fertilizer Works are the best fertilizers that can be manufactured, and contain all 
the elements necessary to the highest possible soil development. They are made from the best animal 
materials obtainable, and adapted to all conditions of soil. The mechanical condition is perfect. The con- 
sistent application of Armour’s Fertilizers will result in increased soil fertility, increased crops and a con- 
sequent increase in profit. No soil is so poor but that it will be benefited by the proper application of Armours’ 
Animal Fertilizers.
