New Bern Oil & Fertilizer Company MANUFACTURERS
Cotton Seed Products and High Grade Fertilizers Factory and Mill: Riverside, Neuse River New Bern, N. C.
Local and Long Distance Telephone Nos. 124 and 125
Why buy fertilizers from foreign manufacturers when you can get such excellent and effective goods from your home people?
We make a specialty of Cotton Seed Meal and Fish Fertilizers, using other Ammoniates when necessary, and properly balancing the mixtures with German Potash and Acid Phosphate.
Our facilities for manufacturing and loading on cars, boats or trucks have been doubled within the past year, which enables us to fill all orders promptly.
We are making the same brands this year as heretofore-knowing that they have been tried and have proven perfectly satisfactory. In tobacco fertilizers we have been particularly successful. Some of our favorite brands are :
Oriole Tobacco Grower, 8-4-4 Pitts Prolific Golden Tobacco Guano, 8-3-3 Lenoir Bright Leaf Tobacco Grower, 8-3-3
If you need goods for truck, cotton, corn or peanuts, we can supply you with brands made especially for these crops.
Cotton Seed and Products
We are always in the market for cotton seed and will pay the highest market price at any time. We will also give you a liberal amount of cotton seed meal or fertilizers in exchange for seed. Write us for prices.
We are in the market for soya beans and will thank you to advise us when you have any for sale.
We are agents for the sale of the Gordon Bean Harvester and Little Giant Bean Harvester.
