danger that the germ of the seed will

But IL the fertilizer is applied with the

no danger whatever that the ordinary

doses. say 500 to ] 900 pounds per acre,
and should the season following be
very dry. In is entirely probable hat
the plants might be injured by the
heavy application of fertilizer Tn.
reason for this is that the plant food

count and wiping ont the insult in

smashed him between the eyes. caught
