nia promote maximum-yields . .. .
extra barrels of rice on limited
acres. And rice growers like the
economy and eaae of application.
Nitrogen is evenly distributed, ac-
cording, to field reports. \
Find out how much extra profit
you earn with several’ water ap-
plications of Phillips 66 Ammonia.
Make a point now to see your

money this year on your rice crop
or any cash crop with this 8235
