SIZES $1.00 and $1.50 16, 16 1-2, 17, 17 1-2 and 18 Your Cotton Crop Can Be Increased It costs no more to cultivate an acre that produces two bales of cotton than an acre which produces only one-quarter of a bale. Why not see what you can do with Virginia-Carolina Fertilizers Other men have been able to double and more than double their yield per acre with a liberal application of Virginia-Carolina Fertilizers. Messrs. Lucas & Jackson of Kelsey County, Tenn., used Vir ginia-Carolina Fertilizer on about 55 acres planted with cotton, and say: “We have the finest crop of cotton we ever saw, and all the people around here think the same. We actually counted 447 bolls on one stalk. Another stalk had by actual count 409 bolls, forms, souares and blossoms. On about 8 acres we expect to make about 2 bales to the acre, and an estimate of adjoining farms not so fer tilized and under other cultural methods, will yield only 1 bale to five acres. ” An interesting picture of the cotton plants referred to will be found in the new 1909 Virginia-Carolina Farmers’ Year Book, copy of which may be had from your fertilizer dealer, or will be sent free, if you write our nearest sales office.
