O. & W. High Grade Potato 
and Vegetable Fertilizer 
This is a concentrated mixture running high in 
analysis in every ingredient, and as a formula is 
extensively used in the potato growing sections of 
Maine. To produce large crops of potatoes you 
must feed heavily of Potash. This was thoroughly 
proven during the war, as even when Potash was 
extremely high and scarce some of the Maine 
potato growers paid the price for this ingredient 
and were well repaid by increased crop.
