Il No Land So Rich That Fertilizer
Cannot Make It Better
You use fertilizers for the profit you ryet cut o* t'r.r.m?ant! the
better the land the more profitably a good fer.iliz- r can 1 c used on it. j
Do not imagine because land will produce a f crivhhout
i
Virginia-Carolina
Fertilizers
that these fertilizers cannot be profitably ur.cd on it, or that they were
made only for land too poor to producc without them. If poor land
will show a normal increase when fertilizer i:i used, good land will
show at least double the increase. Use Virginia-Carolina Fertilizers
to increase the quality, as well as the quantity of the crop?and you
will increase the profits from your land.
"I have been using your fertilizers, for a number of years" says
Mr. William Fraiser, of Glasburg, La.," andfind (hat it not only pays

Samples of three brands of our fertilizers have been
drawn by a State inspector of fertilizers and analyzed
by the Clemson College authorities with the following
results:

Our 8.75-2-2 ammoniated goods analyzes 10.43-2.02-2.11

Several of our customers have complimented us
on the good, dry, mechanical condition of our goods

Anderson Fiiospiiafa & Oil Co..
ANDERSON, S. C.

We want to talk to you a little now
about our ammoniated fertilizers.
The acid and meal season is about
over. Those who use acid and meal
haul it home early in the season so
that they can mix it. The seasonrfor
ammoniated goods commence later,
and, in fact, is about starting now.
There is not much difference in acids;
one acid is about as good as another.
It is all made of phosphate rock,
'bone phosphate lime), crushed and
treated with sulphuric acid. That is
: how you get your acid phosphate and
one fertilizer company turns out /
about as good quality of this goods
as another. The difference in fertilzer
is in ammoniated goods. Ammoniated
goods are made by taking
his same acid phosphate and mix
I.ng it with ammoniates, blood tankage,
nitrate of soda, cotton seed
meal, sulphate of ammonia, garbage. t
Now, some of these ammoniates do
heir work and exhaust more qi""ky
than others and so by properly
mixing and manipulating our amiioniates,
we have gotten a fertilizer
hat will nourish the plant from the ^
ame it sprouts, all during the growing
season, during the laying-by se1
son and up to the time the plant is
matured ami ready to be gathered.
Take for instance nitrate of soda. It
acts quickly and exhausts. Cotton
seed meal will come in next; it will
dissolve and assimulate with the soil
and become a plant food. It all has
to dissolve and assimulate with the
..
soil before it becomes a plant food,
just as when you plant a grain of
corn it has to germinate before it
comes up. Tankage come in next
and then blood, which lasts until the
! v
crop is matured and ready to\be
gathered. So, by taking the different
kinds of ammoniates in the
proper proportion, one coming in as
one exhausts, we have a fertilizer
that will feed and nourish the plant
from the time it sprouts until it is
ready to be gathered. That is a cpmplete
fertilizer and unless it does that
it is not a complete fertilizer. It
does not matter where you get it, it
is not a complete fertilizer unless it
feeds and nourishes the plant from
the time it sprouts until the crop is
ready to be gathered. These ammo- ^
niates are very expensive; that is
' why ammoniated goods costs more
than acids. Take sulphate of am'
- j.? i~
| moma; it costs $0* per iuu iuiu
down at the factory. We have
bought quite a lot of this and are
i[ using it in fertilizers that we sell for
| less than $30 per ton, just because we
want to make the right kind of "
; goods; goods that will make the
crop grow and keep growing and
;i will make a man take a pride in his '
crop. Our ammoniated goods used
i on lands that are prepared and culti
vated, as the farmers in this section
usually prepare and cultivate th^ir
lands, will get all out of the land
there is in it and a farmer should not
be satisfied with making the land do
1 less than that. The trouble about
using a cheap fertilizer is Just this:
by the time you find out it is no account
you have lost a crop and you
have lost a year's work and the only
thing you can do is to wait until
! next year and try again and fertilize
right. ' ?
Every sample of our goods that
has been analyzed at Clemson College
ran way above our analysis which
shows that we are making the right
kind of goods. There is absolufely
no adulteration in the fertilizers we
are making. They are made of bone
phosphate of lime aminoniates and
nothing else. There is nothing better
made. Our goods will feed and
I nourish the plant from the time it
sprouts until it is ready to be gathered
and that is the kind of goods
your land needs: that is the kind of
goods your laud must have to make
first class crops. If you want goods
of this sort, we have them and they
are for sale. They are home maue
and they are made right; they are
dry and well pulverized and we
want you to try them. See our
agents.
