Show COUNTY AGENT'S CORKER- HAVE YOU CONSIDERED WHAT'S IN THE FERTILIZER BAG YOU PURCHASED?? Here is an example quotation from Dr. Paul Christensen, USU Extension Ex-tension conservationist: "This is to alert you on a product called "Planters Soil Conditioner" currently being pushed in Utah and Idaho. It contains a total of 1.67 plant food 1.12 nitrogen, 15 phosphorous, and .40 potash.. It also contains approximately 30 gypsum. The rest is filler. It is being sold through neighborhood neighbor-hood meetings at prices on a slid ing scale. Prices, as reported to me, I are approximately $200 for the first! ton, $140 for the second ton, etc. i If you sell to your neighbor, youl get about $60 rebate. It is recommended to apply 500 lbs. per acre to last five years. This is strictly a fake. Do not be taken' in by high-pressure salesmanship."

The California State Department of Agriculture recently issued a newsletter which described the difficulty dif-ficulty of washing parathion from the sk!n: "All great Neptune's ocean will not wash parathion . clean from the hands according to experiments ex-periments described in the August Aug-ust 1961 issue of Archives of Environmental Health.
