It Pays to Inoculate Legumes Before Planting 
with Nitragin Inoculation. | 
The question is often raised whether it is necessary to inoculate every 
time a legume is being planted. The old idea was that once a legume 
has been growing in a given soil and it was known to be well inocu- 
lated, further inoculation was not necessary. That is no doubt perfectly 
true. The subsequent legumes will grow and will show inoculation in 
the majority of cases. 
But frequently it happens that due to unfavorable soil conditions, 
excessive droughts or too heavy rains, many of the legume bacteria 
remaining in the soil may be killed or washed away. Therefore, suffi- 
ecient number of bacteria may not be available to produce satisfactory 
inoculation on the same legume the next time it is planted. 
The young legume plants need available nitrogen as soon as possible 
to lay the foundation for healthier and more vigorous growth, and one 
sure way to furnish this element to them in the early stages of growth 
is to inoculate with Nitragin inoculation. Proper inoculation has been 
regarded as one of the cheapest forms of legume crop insurance.

It Pays to Treat Seed Before Planting with 
Du Bay Disinfectants. 
One and a half billion dollars—an average of over $200 per farmer— 
is the annual tax levied by plant diseases on America’s crops, according 
to the U. S. Department of Agriculture. Such a staggering economic 
waste makes plant diseases one of the most important risks in crop 
production. 
All growers contribute to this huge plant disease tax. Yet it could be 
greatly reduced if they would fight disease by using crop sanitation, 
disease-resistant varieties, crop rotation, protective sprays or dusts, and 
last but not least—seed treatment. 
Early this century certain organic mercuries were found to be very 
effective in killing many disease organisms carried on seeds, without 
injuring the seeds. This led to exhaustive investigations of these com- 
pounds. After years of intensive research the present Du Bay Seed 
Disinfectants were developed. The prevention of disease by treating seeds 
before planting with the effective, easily applied Du Bay Disinfectants 
is less costly than any other crop practice, and returns greater profits 
per dollar invested. Years of continued use prove this!
