WITH POTASH w. tf/teur ntrtt Experiments and practical field tests h^ve shown that pot- v ash will increase the yields of com enough to make good profits after paying for the cost of the potash. In addition to increasing the yields, potash fills out the ears and re duces firing, root rot, and lodging. Dr. H. P. Cooper, Director of the South Carolina Exper iment Station, says that much of the po tentially good corn land in the eastern part of South Carolina has become so deficient in potash that corn is soften almost a com plete failure. Increase your com yields this year by top-dressing with 100-200 pounds per acre of a nitrogen- potash fertilizer. Consult your county agent or experiment station about the plant-food re quirements of your soils. See your fertilizer dealer or manufacturer regarding fertilizers high in pot ash. You will be surprised how little it costs to use more potash. Writeus for fur ther information and literature. I * • AMERICAN POTASH INSTITUTE, INC. . I Bwildtag WubtnytMi. D C.
