ORDER FERTILIZERS NOW Farmers in Eastern Canada are' urged by the Dominion Department of Agriculture not to delay placing their orders for their fertilizer require- ments and accepting shipments well in advance of seeding time. • To move the available 40.0,000 tons of fertilizers required this year try farmers in the five Eastern. provinces will require 14,000 fully loaded freight tars. If shipments do not start at once; there will 'be many farmers who won't get deliveries in time to be of any use for their 1943 crops, the De- partment explains.
