A BIG FERTILIZER DEALER RECENTLY SAID "Oh, yes. there Is no doubt but what Farmogerm is a good thing to pro duce nitrates, but you are 1us. about I twenty years ahead of the times.'* Now we admit that as Ions as COttO'.l brought 16 cents a pound it might pay to make heavy applications of Ammo- , nlated Fertilizer to grow It. At ?0 cents a pound we might even grow it profit- i ably in flower pots. Hut low cotton , prices and high cost fertilizers make a poor team to pull stumps with. Instead of figuring how to pay last > year's fertilizer bill with next year's j loss off cotton, why not mow legume crops that will be of less interest to Wall street and more Interest to > your mules and hogs, and at the same time grow your own nitrates by innoc ulating the seeds with Farmogerm (High Fred Bacteria). H half the ' cotton that is piled up In sheds in the South could be turned into bales of hay, we might bp buying automo biles instead of borrowing money to pay interest on debts Then Wall street would have to "come and see us" On the.cotton proposition. As long as Cotton is King. Wall street will be Minister of Finance. Why ont throw off the yoke; and estab lish a republic?---put Corn, Oats and Legume crops in. with Thomas Phos phate and Farmogerm as Secretary of the- Treasury and Agriculture, and Cow Pea Hay for the Department of, the Interior tof your mules). When we have done this we can safely control Old King Cotton, and send him to England to buy our lux-! uries. Hedurod Automobile Tire Prices.

Nor can a big profit-making crop come from your soil, unless the crop is properly fed. Few soils known have enough plant foods to remain fertile when cultivated.
