Plant more acreage this year and make eahacre produce more Now is the time to use Manure-the cheapest fertilizer. The following comparison of the plant food value in commercial fer tilizer and Manure bears evidence that it is to your interest from a cost standpoint to use Manure on your land. A Comparison of the Costs of Plant Food in Commercial Feitilizers and Manure Basic Price Per Unit Acid $1.25 Ammonia .7.00 Potash . ---.. 6.00 Commercial Fertilizer Manure From Camp Jackson Analysis- Analysis 8-3-0 cost per tori - -_ $37.00 Acid, 0.45 at $1.25 . $ .56 8-3-3 cost per ton 54.00 Ammonia, 0.68 at $7.00 4.76 10-2-0 cost per ton. . 30.00 Potash, 0.58 at $6.00.. 3.48 $8.80 Actual Worth of Manure Based on Commercial Fertilizer $8.80 Furthermore the decaying organic matter in the Manure is constantly adding available plant food to the soil, is valuable both from a humus standpoint as well as a land builder. Manure will show results for three years, and its cost divided through this period will show a much lower cost per unit of plant food than any other fertilizer on the market.

It contains no-objectionable matter such as trash, dirt, obnoxious grass seeds, etc.; oat straw is the only bedding used, and the Manure naturally contains a small quantity, but not sufficient to make it objectionable. As a matter of fact it is worth more than its weight, on account of its high value of potash, which makes it more valuable as a fertilizer.
