Spreading Prosperity Fertile soil means good crops and good crops mean prosperity. ‘The only way to keep your fields fertile and productive is to give back what your crops take away—nature's plant food. Essex Organic Fertilizers are made out of BONE, BLOOD and MEAT— nature’s best plant food in its most concentrated and productive forms. They not only give back to the soil what crops take away, but they enrich the land for other crops, keeping it always fertile and always in_the best condi This means prosperity not only in land value, but in rich agricul- tion. tural yields. Extensive experiments have shown that these improved animal fertilizers, without potash, are as good as the high-grade Essex Fertilizers have always been. Thus, the practical elimination of potash from fertilizers by the war has little effect on the farmer who builds for prosperity with Essex BONE, BLOOD and MEAT Fertilizers.
