Fertilizers can always be used to good 
advantage by opening up the row, sprinkling thinly the fertilizer; then cover the same with a little soil and then sow your seed. Or, 
they can be used by working them into the soil along the rows after the plant is up, care being taken not to let it come in contact 
with the leaves or stem of the plant. 
For plants that are transplanted, work the fertilizer into the soil thoroughly before transplanting, 
using from a teaspoonful to a small handful, according to the size and nature of the plant.

BASIC SLAG 
The Soil Conditioner 
and Builder 
In either making or improving a pasture, 
it is necessary to use a soil builder, con- 
ditioner or fertilizer to secure the most 
profitable results. Pasture soils deficient 
in the necessary food or minerals produce 
grazing low in the elements that build 
body tissue, beef, and increase the pro- 
duction of milk. 
A pasture may produce an abundance 
of grass and yet the stock will not thrive. 
This is usually because the grass is lack- 
ing in calcium, phosphoric acid and other 
minerals. Agricultural authorities and 
Southern farmers have found that an easy 
way to have a thick, healthy pasture 
grass rich in many minerals is to use 
U. S. S. Tennessee Basic Slag. 
Stock raisers all over the South are 
rapidly realizing the importance of Basic 
Slag for making pastures to produce qual- 
ity beef quickly, increase milk production, 
and reduce feed bills.
