A young traveling man who had re cently married and who had _been “hen-pecked’’. rather severely by his mother-in-law, ' received a telegram one night th^t his mother-in-law had died very suddenly. The undertaker wired: .“Shall I embalm, cremate or just bury the bedy-?-” The young ^ej- low, feeling in more or less good spir its upon the receipt of such a wir^, telegraphed back: “Take no chances —embalm, cremate and bury.” I can’t say just where I ran across that little story, but whoever is re sponsible for it, no doubt had his ex periences, too. The story, however, aptly ilustrates the point which I want to get across to you, Mr. As paragus (grower. Take no chances with that aspara- gus crop. If you want to get maxi mum returns you must fertilize it, and you must grade and market it prop- erly. Rumors have been rife thdft a great many asparagus growers intend to do away with their usual fertilizer and hope that the crop will give them a good return this season. Maybe so —mayke fertilizing the crop this year may make next year’s crop—and lack of fertilizer this year may not hurt production for the 1931 crop—fcut ev eryone knows that it will practically ruin the 1932 crop. Figures taken from one farm in South Carolina show the following re sults for the years 1926 to 1930, in clusive: A field where no fertilizer was used gave 41 per cent, less as paragus than did. a field where a ton of a complete fertilizer was used. Figures taken from another Sou^h Carolina farm for the years 1925 to and including 1930 show a 31 per cent, increase for IVfe ton 8 of a mixed fer tilizer over an unfertilized field, in yields of asparagus. Friends, I’m no’scientist—I’m just an every day practical sort of a fel low. I’m not even 1 a good business man,—but I can certainly see the fol ly of not fei^ilizing an asparagus crop. This year, instead of saying you won’t fertilize, you Tfught to be saying, “I know the asparagus crop is a glutton for plant food, and I can make more colossal stuff jf I give it plenty of plant food’’—and the Colos sal stuff i s the stuff which will bring the iponey in a year like this. And then, too, how are you going to market the stuff after you get it raised? Are you contented to con sign it to any Tom, Dick or Harry and let him return you what he feels is best for you? Or are you one of the more up-to-date growers who has lined up with the S. C. Asparagus Growers Association, or the Monetta Asparagus Association, or the Pro gressive Association, These organi zations are^well managed, are in the business to serve you and to get max imum returns for your product. You should patronize them.* I understand that they have a working agreement among themselves for^the handling, shipping and marketing of your prod uct, and if everyone in this territory gives them 100 per cent, cooperation they can control-the markets and dic tate their prices to the trade. Mull over these words, friends, and let’s force a good living out of 1931 TAKE NO CHANCES. ~ f ■ Monday/March 2nd, 1931, is the LAST DAY to make tax returns.

A little under the crop is important but a liberal top or side dressing is your insurance of profitable results. There is just one thing to think of when you buy your nitrate. Say CHILEAN to your dealer. That one word is your protection and his too. Insist on Chilean and you get the one best nitrogen for your crops.
