WHAT YOU’LL LIKE ABOUT THIS SIDE DRESSING
Because cotton prefers ANHYDROUS AMMONIA liquid nitrogen fer-
tilizer, it grows rapidly, thus drastically reducing danger from the boll
weevil. The reason cotton prefers ANHYDROUS AMMONIA is simple:
used as a side dressing, it gives the young plants ammonia nitrogen f
which, as the plants mature, converts into nitrate nitrogen. These forms
of nitrogen are best at each stage of growth. ANHYDROUS AMMONIA
provides each kind at the right time with only one application! Your |\X 4 k 4 sS< >
