Wanted Better Fertilizers.

One of the great needs of the farmers
is better fertilizers. The fertilizers
sold are what they are said to be and
we are not suggesting that anybody is
cheated. The difficulty is that the
grades offered and bought are too
cheap. The farmers could a v money
by buying fertilizers with more plant
food and paying Of course higher prices
for them. 1t costs just as much to haul
low grades in wagons and freight cars
as high grades. When good fertilizers
are put down, there is a permanent i'm
provement to the land but when tons OF
ordinary rock with a small proportion
of ammonia and potash are distri.
buted, the permanent improvement is
inconsiderable. The freights and cos.
of distribution n far too small for the
rpresent qualities of fertilizers not to
be expensive to>4the thrifty and intelli.
