The farmer who invests in the latest approved styles of planters and dis tributors to insure a perfect stand and an even, uniform distribution of fertil izers, has wasted his money unless he buys a fertilizer that is in fine and dry mechanical condition; for a damp, gummy fertilizer will not go through any distributor freely enough to give a uniform distribution, and the result is a spotted crop with imperfect stands. The absolutely perfect mechanical condition of our “Supreme” and MORRIS BMNO GUANO a... .. “Southern Big” Brands insure a perfectly uniform distribution through any make of distributor, and promotes even stands. Being dry, you get a much larger bulk of fertilizer to the ton than you get by buying damp and heavy goods. They are quick, constant and lasting crop feeders, and do not leach out in the soil in wet weather nor lie dormant in periods of drouth. Thus they are enabled to make the plant produce and retain its fruit to maturity, reducing the great loss of shedding to a small point Just remember the names, “SUPREME” and “SOUTHERN BIG” Brands and tell your dealer that you want them.
