are now looking finer than they have
at any time during the past summer.

even though they have several times
been dangerously near the frost line.
With favorable weather for few
weeks longer the finest yield Of gar
den products of the year may conf

reliable information in regard to the
best fertilizers should be welcome
news to all farmers. We sell only
the best. But another important thing
is that orders should be placed soon in
order to insure your being able to get
it when you need it.-Tetley-Kein
