Follow Clemson's recommendations ! ^ Tests show manganese and boron in new slowly soluble form increase f cotton yields up to $30 per acre. Profit from Clemson’s continuing experiments with South Carolina cotton. Add 25 pounds of FTE* per ton to your fertilizer—it costs but little, can give you a 20 for 1 return on your extra investment. ^ FTE, unlike other mineral trace elements, does hot' leach away with spring cloudbursts, but stays in the root zone the full growing season. And this rate at which the minerals are released to the plants is scientifically controlled—to eliminate toxicity hazards, and to assure that the plants glet these essential nutrients when and as needed. ^ HOW TO GET FTE Check now with your dealer! He can supply you with any one of five leading fertilizers fortified with FTE. And be sure it is FTE —look for the FTE name or trade-mark— for bigger cotton yields next fail. - SEE YOUR UBERTY LIFE MAN NOW Liberty Life INSURANCE .COMPANY Home Office ; Greenville. S.C?
