Back  of  the  fertilizer 
you  buy 
WHEN  the  Authorized  Swift  Agent 
in  your  town  tells  you  that  Swift’s 
Red  Steer  Fertilizers  are  the  best  ferti¬ 
lizers  you  can  buy,  you  have  abundant 
proof  of  the  truth  of  this  statement. 
You  have  one  proof  in  the  character 
and  reputation  of  the  Authorized  Swift 
Agent.  Only  men  who  have  a  reputation 
for  square  dealing  and  who  can  and  are 
willing  to  render  a  worth  while  service  to 
the  farmer  in  connection  with  the  sale 
of  fertilizers,  are  approached  to  become 
Authorized  Swift  Agents. 
You  have  additional  proof  in  the  ex¬ 
perience  of  farmers  in  your  own  county 
who  use  Swift’s  Red  Steer  Fertilizers. 
Get  in  touch  with  these  farmers — find 
out  the  results  they  have  obtained,  many 
of  them  for  a  number  of  years.  And  you 
will  find  that  they  are  ordering  Swift’s 
Red  Steer  Fertilizers  again  this  season. 
A  fifty-year-old  reputation 
Another  convincing  proof  lies  in  the  fact 
that  for  more  than  fifty  years  Swift  & 
Company  has  maintained  a  reputation 
for  making  each  Swift  product  the  best 
of  its  kind — and  this  reputation  stands 
back  of  every  bag  of  Swift’s  Red  Steer 
Fertilizers. 
Twenty-four  Swift  factories,  equipped 
with  the  most  modern  machinery,  are 
engaged  exclusively  in  the  manufacture 
of  Swift’s  Red  Steer  Fertilizers.  Every 
step  in  the  manufacturing  process,  from 
the  buying  of  the  raw  materials  to  the 
mixing  and  testing  and  shipping  of  the 
finished  product,  is  carefully  supervised 
by  experts — experts  in  chemistry  and  ag¬ 
riculture  and  manufacturing. 
Only  the  highest  grade  and  most  pro¬ 
ductive  sources  of  plant  food  are  used  in 
the  manufacture  of  Swift’s  Red  Steer 
Fertilizers.  Every  bag  is  properly  pro¬ 
cessed  and  combined  to  furnish  each 
plant  its  proper  proportion  of  plant  food. 
Your  guarantee  of  quality 
These  are  the  things  to  consider  when 
you  buy  your  fertilizers  this  season.  When 
you  do  consider  them,  you  will  buy  Swift’s 
Red  Steer  Fertilizers — fertilizers  that  are 
backed  by  Swift  &  Company,  its  twenty- 
four  modern  factories  and  its  7,000  Au¬ 
thorized  Swift  Agents,  and  endorsed  by 
thousands  and  thousands  of  practical, 
successful  farmers.

Fertilizers  for  New  York 
It  pays  to  use  fertilizers — high  analysis 
fertilizers.  This  is  the  message  that  goes 
out  to  the  farmers  of  the  land  from  the 
agricultural  colleges  and  experiment  sta¬ 
tions  in  many  states — with  definite  recom¬ 
mendations,  based  upon  years  of  research 
and  experiment,  as  to  the  fertilizers  which 
will  give  best  results  on  individual  soils 
and  crops. 
For  New  York,  only  five  analyses  are 
required,  according  to  recommendations 
issued  by  Prof.  E.  L.  Worthen  of  the  New 
York  State  College  of  Agriculture.  These 
analyses  are: 
0-10-10 
4-  8-10 
4- 12-  4 
5- 10-  5 
6-  8-  4 
For  grain,  the  4-12-4  analysis  is  recom¬ 
mended.  Other  analyses  are  for  truck 
crops. 
As  Authorized  Swift  Agent  for  the  sale 
of  Swift’s  Red  Steer  Fertilizers,  we  are 
co-operating  with  the  New  York  State 
College  of  Agriculture  by  handling  the 
brands  recommended  above  which  apply 
to  local  conditions. 
Come  in  and  let  us  select 
the  analysis  that  meets  your 
own  soil  and  crop  require¬ 
ments.
