'lll How Dean Godden DIDTHE I TRICK IN OHIO they have a 40 Bushel Wheat Club contest. The first prize is $75 in gold. Dean Godden, manager of one of the Ohio State University farms near Chillicothe. won this prize and the honor that goes with it by making the fine average yield of 48.12 bu. of wheat per acre on 10 acres. Fertilizer Treatment Mr. Godden fertilized his crop with 250 lbs. per acre of 2-12-4 m fall. Then, when spring growth started, he top-dressed the crop with 125 lbs. of Chilean Nitrate of' Soda per acre. Complete growing cost was $276.63. Crop value was $601.50, leaving clear profit of $324.87 or $32.48 net profit per acre. A plot that received just the 2-12-4 fertilizer but no top dressing, made only 30 bu. per acre. A gam of 18 bu. to the acre due to top dressing with Chilean Nitrate. Some increase! Chilean Nitrate is vital food for your wheat crop ' . . . and any other crop. Almost magic on corn, i It gets right to work, giving the young plants I strength and vigor. Yield is greatly increased and protein content of the grain is increased too. This nitrate fertilizer is natural, not synthetic ' —the only natural nitrate fertilizer in the worlds ! It doesn’t cost much and pays you back many ; times what you spend for it. See your local fertilizer dealer. If he does i hot carry Chilean Nitrate of Soda he can | easily get it for you.
