FERTILIZERS 
We herewith offer thoroughly reliable, and properly balanced chemical 
fertilizers compounded for the best growth of various crops. Only the choicest, 
most soluble and easily assimilated ingredients are employed, and while quickly 
taken up by the plant will not waste in the soil.

without their assistance even where good animal manures are used.
