Plain Talks on Fertilizers How to Get the Greatest Possible Yield per Acre It is a well-known scientific fact that in order to produce the very greatest possible yield from any soil it must contain an actual excess over and above all demands that can possibly be made on it by the plants. Many farmers will feed their stock as much nourishing food as they can possibly assimi late, yet will starve their crops on the mistaken notion that they are “economizing” on fer tilizer. The experiences of farmers, government experts, Band agricultur alists every where confirm the fact that plants, like ani mals, need the fullest possible amount of nour ishment that they can obtain if they are to be developed to the utmost. The economy in fertilizers is not in the amount used but in the ratio of quality to cost. Virginia - Carolina Fertilizers are the best in the world for the least money.
