One of the Things Mr. Royster
Discovered About the
Feeding of Crops
Cured Fertilizer Has Increased Farmers*
Earnings
Haven’t you heard about the more thorough and scientific
feeding for plants—hastening maturity and helping to grow
crops that bring higher prices? Everywhere you find farmers
talking about the remarkable results through the use of
Royster’s Cured Fertilizer. |
Why Cured Fertiliser Grows Better Crops
Mr. Royster discovered that by aging or curing fertilizer for
four to six months he could increase its value as a plant-food.
He found that this curing brought about a certain chemical
action which prepared the fertilizer for the use of crops and
made food elements available at the very time they are needed.
Why Mr. Royster can Cure his Fertilizer
Naturally it requires vast quantities of material in order to <
anticipate a season’s supply, half a year before it is needed, i
(This half year representing the aging period). ! t also requires V
Strong financial resources, Thus; — only a company like %
Hoyster's can offer this-improved type of fertiliser.
Look for the Name on the Bag.
Don’t guess about fertilizer. Look for the name “Royster’s’*
t..id knou) that your crops will be well fed—for the sake of
greater earning*.
. • - ' ■ v" . > ' !:
“/ have used cither
guano, but Royster's is
the best for me."
*7 have used no other
brand of fertilizer for
three years."
Royster's Fertilisers
distribute better and
retain their fertilising
power longer."
***— ■ used your ferti
liser for the past two
years and hate had the
best traps I've had far
many a year."
**»— ■ ■ / shall sontinue
<0 use Royster’s as long
as l farm.”
**-better results
than I have ever gotten
before from use of ferti
liser.”
