GOOD ADVICE
FOR THE FARMER
Fertilizer people arc talking high prices for next
spring, and it looks like $28.00 to $30.00 per ton for Stand
ard Guano.
Two tons of 16 per cent Acid and one ton of
Cotton Seed Meal will make you a good fertilizer
for Corn or Cotton. You had better swap Seed tor
Cotton Seed Meal at present exchange prices. The farmer
that docs this this year will find that he has acted wisely.
Cotton Seed Meal for Feed.
It may look high for feed, but not so as compared
with other feeds. C. S. Meal has always been too cheap
in this country. Too much meal has been exported every
year, and it is thc other fellow that has been profiting from
our ignorance and carelessness. Take your Experiment
Station's advice on Cotton Seed Meal for feeding cattle.
