wonderful new era the farmer will come into his own.

What Twelve Farmers of Henderson County Have to Say About
Agricultural Calx
Etov.ah, N. C., Aug. 23, 1918.

Etowah, N. C.
Your fertilizer was used on parts
of both my cane and corn crop, and
1 must say that it has improved both
crops wherever it has been placed.
You can notice the difference to the
very row—as the cane is taller and
more matured. The ears are bigger
and the plant greener where it was
used on the corn last. I should say
that where the fertilizer has been
used it has advanced the crops at
least two weeks earlier.
Yours truly,
J. E. GREER, J. P.

I made a test of, your fertilizer on
thin and well manured land. The
fertilizer was used when I sowed the
seed, and it was only a short time
when I noticed how much better the
corn showed up on this ground, and
then a little later it began showing an
improvement on the ground that v;as
well manured. Your fertilizer is do
ing fine, and I have also observed how
it has done on crops of my neighbors.
In sowing my clover I used your
fertilizer, and I must say that my
clover has a fine stand which I at
tribute to the use of your material.
Yours truly,
M. R. ANDERSON.

I used your fertilizer on part of
my cabbage patch and it has proven
very beneficial. The plants that were
fertilized have larger heads and were
much healthier looking plants than
those where your fertilizer was not
used. I can safely recommend its
use.
Yours truly,
C. W. DUNCAN.

It was rather late in the season and
therefore my corn had grown con
siderably when I placed some of your
fertilizer on parts of my crop. After
a short time I noticed the plant was
greener and the ears were larger
where the material had been applied.
I not only saw what good it did for
my corn, but I have also seen some
very remarkable demonstrations on
some of my neighbors’ crops.
Yours truly,

My corn crop has been helped a
great deal by the use of your fertili
zer. Where it has been used the
plant is greener and the ears larger.

I have used your fertilizer and am

it.

I fertilized a number of rows of
cowpeas with your fertilizer, and
some I did not.. It was only a short
time when I began to notice how
much better looking were the peas
where your fertilizer had been placed.
You can notice the difference to the
very row, and I must say it has done
them lots of good.
Yours truly,
LEVI LEDFORD.

for my small grain.

Up to the present time my small
grain crop has been greatly benefited
by the use of your fertilizer. Last
summer I used it on my turnips and
cabbage. The turnips weighed from
3 to 4 pounds more than where I
did not use it. It matured my cab
bage about two weeks earlier than
where it was not used.

excellent.
