A LETTER FROM

Warrenton, N. C.—I was nearly dead
with kidney affection for six months,

Stuart’s Buchu and Juniper and was
perfectly cured. Am now well and all

No Land So Rich That Fertilizer
Cannot Make It Better
You use fertilizers for the profit you get out of them—and the
better the land the more profitably a good fertilizer can be used on it.
Do not imagine because land will produce a fair crop without
Virginia- Carolina
Fertilizers
that these fertilizers cannot be profitably used on it, or that they were
m .^de only f°r land too poor to produce without them. If poor land
will show a normal increase when fertilizer is used, good land w:!.
show at least double the increase. Use Virginia-Carolina Fertilizers
toincrease the quality, as well as the quantity of the crop—and you
wiu increase the profits from your land.
“1 have been using your fertilizers for a number of years” says
Mr. William Fraiser, of Glasburg, La., "and find that it net only pay s
to fertilize, but to do plenty of it, and use the best fertilisers to be
had, such as your brands. I have used a number of them and found
them to be as recommended and to give better results than any other
fertilizers that I have ever used.”
Every planter and farmer should have a copy of the new 1909
Virginia-Carolina Farmers’ Year-Book. Get a free copy from your
fertilizer dealer, or write our nearest sales office.
