Plan for more profit 
T HE most important job the farmer has today is to grow his crops 
at the lowest cost per bushel or per pound. 
The only way to do this is to secure more bushels of corn, more pounds 
of truck, etc., per acre and per man. 
Good seed and proper tillage are necessary, but in order to secure the 
best yields, the best quality, and hence the most profit, the right kind 
of available plant food must be supplied. 
Swift’s Red Steer Fertilizers furnish available plant food from sources 
that feed the crop from seeding to maturity. 
Don’t figure on the increased yield alone for your profit. The better 
quality crops, due to the use of fertilizer, often pays the entire fertilizer 
bill. The better “catch” and bigger yield of clover is often worth much 
more than the cost of the fertilizer applied to the nurse crop. 
Liberal applications insure biggest crops of best quality. 
The Red Steer on the bag is a guarantee of highest quality.

Get the most for your money 
Experiment stations urge the use of high 
analysis fertilizers, because such ferti¬ 
lizers furnish plant food to the farmer 
at the lowest cost per pound. 
Your cost of producing a crop and our 
cost of manufacturing a fertilizer are 
comparable. You have a certain fixed 
expense regardless of the size of the crop 
and we have a certain fixed expense re¬ 
gardless of the analysis of the fertilizer. 
When we increase the amount of plant 
food in a ton of fertilizer the extra plant 
food is free of expense for bags, freight 
and labor and you get the advantage of 
our saving. 
Buy Swift’s Red Steer Fertilizers con¬ 
taining 14% or more of plant food and 
thus secure high grade plant food at 
the lowest cost.
