Fertilizers for Summer and Fall Tor
Dressing and Seeding Down.

Up-to-date farmers are agreed that
in many cases better results are OBJ
tanned on meadows from fertilizers
which are applied in the summer or
early fall. This is true both as to
top dressing and seeding down.
We wish to call the attention of the
farmers Of Vermont to the fact that
we can furnish formulas for mixing
fertilizers especially adapted to top
dressing and seeding down grass land
These formulas have not only been
approved by the Vermont Experiment
Station but have been used with ex.
cellent results by a great many far
mers in Vermont and have proved
thoroughly reliable. We can also fur.
nish the materials for mixing fertil
izers in accordance with these formu-
las. We should be pleased to send
the formulas together with full dir
ections for mixing, cost of materials
etc, to any one who will write us,
mentioning this paper. Address Car
