How to read formulas — Fertilizer 
formulas, such as 4-12-4, 8-5-3, etc., are 
used as a quick way to tell the per- 
centages of the major ingredients in 
fertilizers. The first figure tells the 
percentage of nitrogen, the second is 
phosphorus, and the third is potash. 
For example, the formula 4-12-4 means 
4 percent nitrogen, 12 percent phos- 
phorus, and 4 percent potash. 
How to judge fertilizers—Here are two 
good basic rules to follow: 
First—it’s wise to depend on well- 
known standard brands. Unless you 
have facilities for constant analysis, 
plus expert counsel, it’s best to stick 
to known, reliable brand names. 
Second—don’t let price alone be your 
guide. Apparently higher priced ferti- 
lizers are often more economical, when 
the amount of actual fertilizing in- 
gredients is considered.
