It takes about six months for this mix ture to be ready for nse. This fertilizer, according to Mrs. Day is clean to nse, does not sour and has given excellent re sults. This formula for fertilizer Is recommended by both the Oregon and Missouri agricultural colleges and has proven very successful during the years it has been used on the Day farm.
