Making More Money Out of
Cotton Crops
«
is merely a question of using enough of the right
kind of fertilizers.
Virginia-Carolina
F ertilizers
are the right kind.
The cotton plant cannot feed on barren land. Study
3 F our soil. Find out what it lacks. Then apply the
necessary fertilization and the results Will surprise you.
See what Mr. W. C. Hiys of Smith Station, Ala., did. He says:
*‘I planted ubout 30 acres of some 'gray sandy land' that bad been in
cultivation (or over 20 years, and used 300 pounds of Virginia-Caro
lina Ferulizers per acre, and t expect to gather 30 balet from
the 30 acret.” Thia is why we £ay it is the right kind. We have
hundreds ofletters like this, and even etrnngcr, in praise of Virginia-
Carclina Fertilizer for cotton.
Get a copy of the new 1909 Virginia-Carolina Farmera* Year Book
from your fertilizer dealer, or write our nearest sales office and a copy

THE JOHNSON’S CHILL & FEVER TONIC CO.,
SAVANNAH. • - GEORGIA.
Walterboro S. C,. October 9, 1908.
On August 80. ’08, I contracted cold and developed Grippe and
was laid up fiive w'eeka. My bronchial tubes were badly af
fected, which caused me to cough continually and prevented
my sleeping at night. I tried all the old remedies which usually
gave me relief but failed.
Johnson’s Chill and Fever Tonic was recommended to me as a
guaranteed cure for grippe and colds and I was purscaded to
try it. After taking according to directions for one week, I
found myself entirely jcured of my cold and grippe, and my sys
tem in first-class condition. I regard it as one of the best medi
cines I have ever used ir my family and can cheerfully recom
mend it to anyone suffering from a like trouble or general
debilitated system. B. G. BENTON.
