Mr.. Good Farmer

This is going to be late planting season. The
bad weather has held everything back If we are
not careful, it is going to be late season. drought
and boil weevil The only way to overcome these
conditions is EARLY MATURITY All authori-
ties on farming agree that the greatest help toward
early maturity is good fertilizer. We have been
watching crop and weather conditions carefully.
and have especially designed fertilizers to meet
them. There certain things that can be put in
to fertilizer that causes early maturity. All during
the bad weather we have been working on Just
these things. The result is, fertilizers are es-
pecally well adapted to existing conditions. WE
know what they will do. The only thing we have to
do is to show YOU what they will do If you are
interested, let us know. Drop in at our Office and
talk to us about YOUR crop, YOUR troubles We
are interested, and we believe we can help YOU If
your merchant does not handle Hope Fertilizers
let us know We will see that you get them.
Yours for better crops
