Now in the tenth year of its use. Continued and
increasing demand.
IMPROVED HARRIS FERTILIZER.
BEST RESULTS, WITH LEAST EXPENSE.
IF the destructive drouth of the past season has
4 taught the farmer Of the county lesson at
ali, it is that he must find and adopt more eco.
nomical method of fertlizng his crops. On the
very threshold of his farm operations, he neces-
sarly incurs one of the largest obligations be has
to meet and the hardest of all to pay, should the
season prove unfavorable.
Whilst it is conceded that in ordinary seasons
the use of acid phosphate and guanos Is remuner-
ative it takes too great per cent OF the crop
raised to pay for them. There Is money IN them
but not enough.
Fertilizer-one known to contain all the fertili-
zing elements of the high grade commercial ma
nures-at less price And right here we claim,
as we have been advocating it for the past ten
years, that this want can be met and filled only
by the use Of fertilizing chemicals In connection
with home made manures.
The resources of the stable and barn-yard are
often wasted thousand pounds OF stable man.
ure, which Is about two-horse load, being thrown
broadcast over one-fourth Of an acre OF land,
when, if it had been manipulated with few BUSH
els of cotton seed and the proper fertilzing chem
icals, would have made mixture as valuable,
pound for pound, as the highest grade guano or
acid phosphate on the market.
Every comparative statement that we have seen,
made by men who have investigated the subject,
shows balance largely in favor of the use OF
chemical fertilizers, and the time should come,
and will come, when there will be guano facto-
ry on every farm, and every farmer will be his
own president, secretary cashier, general agent,
agent and subagent, and will receive all the COM
missions, discounts and profits of the business.
We have said this much for chemical manures
in general for the Of ealing IN
TILIZER, chemical manure, which, we claim,
fills the felt want Of an economical fertilizer, and
is richer in the phosphates, nitrogenous matter,
ammonia, soda and potash, the very essence OF
chemical fertilizer in the market, and that they
are combined in such proportions as to produce,
with the homemade ingredients, aplant food that
is adapted to the most exacting crop.
Wehave sold this formula for the past ten years,
and the numerous testimonials published, and
the continued and increasing demand, show the
esteem in which it is held by those who have
used it.
But we know that all the farmersin the county
will not use the Improved Harris Fertilizer, and
that we could not supply them this season. if they
desired US to do so, and since they demand COM
mercia fertilizers, we are prepared to supply
them with an imported DISSOLVED BONE that
the manufacturers claim has no equal IN the mar
ket. 1t is manufactured in Dublin, Ireland, from
animal bones shipped from South America, and
being pure dissolved bone, contains more phos-
phoric acid and bone phosphate of lime, the two
ingredients that fix and determine the value OF an
acid phosphate, than can be obtained from the
phosphate rock.
We also furnish an Ammoniated Bone Super
Phosphate, of very high standard, manufactured
by the same company.
