48 FAIR WAY’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 5 
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. Over 5 miles, fertilizer
