AGRICO 
The Nation’s Leading Fertilizer 
Top acre yields mean more today than ever before. And that 
is where the extra crop-producing power of Agrico can help you 
a lot. Agrico crop records speak for themselves on this point. 
Averaging 130.95 bushels of highest quality shelled corn per acre 
on 75 acres, grown with Agrico, Clarence D. Emig, of Orefield, 
Lehigh County, Pa., won the 1942 Pennsylvania State Cham- 
pionship. 
For four years in a row, G. W. Heinle, of Zanesville, has held 
the Ohio State record with Agrico-grown potatoes; in 1942 a 
measured acre yielded 654 bushels per acre. Canning tomatoes 
grown with Agrico by Ernest L. Cooper, of Havre de Grace, Md., 
averaged 19.15 tons per acre on 6.41 acres, winning the State’s 
Ten-Ton-Tomato Club first prize for highest yield in this acreage 
class in 1942. 
While these yields are exceptional, they are a good index of 
Agrico results the country over. Season after season, Agrico 
helps in producing the Nation’s outstanding crops. And, re- 
member, that when you get yield you also get quality—the two 
go hand in hand with Agrico. 
It’s these extra bushels you get with Agrico that cut per- 
bushel production costs to the bone and help you harvest the 
increased crops so vitally needed to meet today’s demand for 
more ...more...and still more food. So, to make the most 
out of every acre you plant this year, be sure and fertilize with 
Agrico.

Application form referred to above in paragraph ‘‘A reminder about U. S. regulations’: 
must be on file in our office before order can be filled. 
tration of the U. S. Department of Agriculture on January 18, 
1943, requires that every farmer make a written application, 
stating how much fertilizer he used on his 1941 and/or 1942 
crops, together with the crops and acreage to be planted and the 
fertilizers required for 1943. This Government Order also lists 
crops that are to have preference for the available supply of 
fertilizers containing chemical nitrogen, and requires that the 
per-acre application of fertilizer must not exceed the rate recom- 
mended by the State Agricultural Experiment Station. (This 
regulation, requiring a written fertilizer application, does not 
apply to the use of Victory Garden fertilizer or fertilizer contain- 
ing only organic nitrogen.) 
Let Us Help with the Paper Work 
Complying with these Government regulations involves a 
certain amount of paper work, but the form to be filled out by 
the farmer isn’t complicated. Write or ‘phone us and we will mail 
you the fertilizer application blanks needed. We’d appreciate 
the chance to be of service to you in this connection. We know 
it means a little extra trouble for you, but there’s no helping it 
under the unavoidable conditions growing out of the war. 
Don’t Delay—Order Early This Year 
One final point: Time is very important and we cannot too 
strongly urge you to get your fertilizer as early as you possibly can. 
As to Agrico, its record proves that it will produce more—so 
it actually costs less. Remember, there’s an Agrico for each 
important crop.
