Fertilizers for Summer and Fall Top
Dressing and Seeding Down.

Up-to-date farmers are agreed that in
many cases better results are obtained on
meadows from fertilizers which are APP
piled 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 fertiliz-
ers especially adapted to top-dressing and
seeding down grass land. These formu-
las have not only been approved by the
Vermont Experiment Station but have
been used with excellent results by a
great many farmers in Vermont and have
proved thoroughly reliable. We can also
furnish the materials for mixing fertilz-
ers in accordance with these formulas.
We should be pleased to send the formu-
las together with full directions for mix
ing, cost of materials, ETC., TO anyone
who will write US, mentioning this paper.
