48 FAIRWAY’ S 
FAIRWAY’S HIGH GRADE FERTILIZERS 
There are three chemical plant foods that are 
necessary to plant growth. Namely they are 
nitrogen, phosphates and potash. A well bal- 
anced fertilizer is one that contains all three, 
and gives to the crop these needed foods. The 
formula for fertilizers is usually expressed by 
numbers as follows, 10-8-6. The first num- 
ber indicates the portion of nitrogen; the 
second number the portion of phosphates; and 
the third, the portion of potash. 
Fertilizer prices include delivery within 25 
miles of Park Ridge, IIl., on 25 Ibs. or over. 
Smaller quantities, delivered with orders of 
seeds, bulbs or supplies amounting to $3.00 or 
more, are prepaid. 250 Ibs. and over, f.o.b.
