HOW TO BUY FERTILIZERS 
A Standard Garden Encyclo- 
pedia offers this excellent 
advice: 
‘In buying fertilizers the gar- 
dener will do well to follow the 
practice of the most successful 
commercial growers, namely, to 
confine his selection to standard 
brands that have given satisfac- 
tory results over a long period 
of years, and to make his final 
choice upon the basis of the actual 
cost of the plant-food ingredients 
rather than the prices of the mix- 
tures as a whole. Some mixtures 
which cost more than others are 
actually more economical than 
others that cost less, when the 
contents of each are calculated on 



ula is needed.

A fertilizer formula for every 
soil feeding MeCCC== We offer special 
purpose fertilizers for use wherever a special form- 
Knowing the.-soil conditions and 
growing problems of this territory as we do, we 
can prescribe just the right formula for every case. 
Whether you know the formula you want—or want 
one recommended especially to handle some situa- 
tion of your own, be sure to consult‘us.

the basis of actual fertilizing in- 
gredients.’’ 
‘‘Sometimes analysis figures do 
not convey the true worth of a 
mixture, especialy if not backed 
up by a reliable manufacturer or 
dealer. Some ingredients may be 
slowly soluble or practically in- 
soluble in one brand but readily 
so in another. For instance, a fer- 
tilizer composed of wood ashes, 
ground phosphate rock and sul- 
phate of ammonia would not be 
comparable in value, though hav- 
ing the same percentage analysis, 
as another composed of nitrate of 
soda, muriate of potash, and su- 
perphosphate. Hence it is im- 
portant to know what the com- 
position is as well as how much 
of each ingredient is in the mix- 
ture.’’
