A good harvest comes to the farm which is in good condition. Soil is the most important part of a farm and should be kept in the best condition. This can only be done by restoring to it the plant food that growing crops take away. BONE, BLOOD and MEAT Fertilizers are plant foods in their most natural forms. They feed the growing crops abundantly, enrich the soil and keep it fertile and in best condition for subsequent crops. Fortunately, we anticipated the shortage in potash, and in all sections of New England, supplied fertilizers without potash, containing good percentages of ammonia in the proper forms, as well as phosphoric acid. The results prove conclusively that satisfactory crops can be grown with Essex, for a time at least, on most soils without the application of potash. We offer I:ssex Fertilizets with confidence that they will yield a full harwest. T used Essex Fenilizer without potash in the center of large field planted to potatoes an 4% Potash Fenilizer, and this plot received just the same care as did the others. The results without potash are well-nigh unbelievable, 2s I received an actual yield at the ate of 150 batrels of potatoes to the acre. These are facts which I can prove, the crop being harvested in the presence of witnesses. W. S. TAPLEY, Bidine, Me See your dealer or write us. ESSEX FERTILIZER CO., BOSTON, MASS.
