One of the Things Mr. Royster
Discovered About the
Feeding of Crops
Cured Fertilizer Hoe Increased Farmers*
Earning*
Haven't you heard about the
feeding for plant*—hastening maturity and helping to
crop* that bring higher prices? Everywhere you find fanners
♦■Tiring about the rein* rka bio results through the use of
Royster's Cured Fertiliser. 1
Why Cured Fertilizer Grows Better Crops
Mr. Royster discovered that by aging or curing fertiliser 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 fertiliser for the use of crops and
made food elements available at the very time they an 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.
(Due half year representing the aging period). It also requires
strong financial resources. Thus;—only a company like
Royster's can offer this improved type of fertilizer.
Look for the Name on the Bag.
Don’t guess about fertilizer. Look for the name "Royster's"
and know that your crops will be well fed—for the sake of
greater earnings.
