Tobacco growers are using more and more Nitrate of Soaa every year, on the repom mer.da'ion of experiment stations and other tobacco authorities. It is food for tobacco plants—not a sximulan;. On bright tobacco Chilrrn Ni'rai" shown a good prcfii. Five year tests at Coastal Plain Experiment Station, Tifton. Ca.. proved that Nitrate of Soda gave larger yields and brought higher average price per pound, than other sources of commercial nitrogen. Bright tobacco soils, as a rule, are in fertile, but ihey respond readily. Chil ean Nitrate is ihe food to feed them. Chilean Nitrate nitrogen is immediately available. It beg/ns its good work £.t once, promoting A.«,t growth and rnrly maturity. It is the natural product, not synthetic— • the world's only natural nitrate fertilizer.
