GOOD FERTILIZER FOR WHEAT
Ten Per Cent. Phosphoric Acid and
SIX Per Cent. Potash Makes
Exc client Comblr alton.

There is an impression among the
farmers generally that a fertilizer
should be especially rich in potash.
One cause OF this Is no doubt from
the marked effect that wood ashes has
on most soils.
A liberal application OF wood ashes
shows an Improvement in crop pro
duction on almost any soil.
This is usually attributed TO the
potash contained in the ashes.
An analysis OF the ashes usually
shows from four to five times as much
lime as potash In the ashes, since
wood ashes usually contain from i've
to eight per cent. of potash, IS to 40
per cent Of lime and about two per
cent. of phosphoric acid.
The marked effect that wood ashes
has on almost all plants OF the leg
luminous family seems to indicate that
the lime in the ashes has more infiu-
ence in making the ashes valuable as
fertilizer than the potash does.
Last year our fertilizer dealer put
in bag OF fertilizer containing 10
per cent of phosphoric acid and six
per cent. OF potash at the same price
as the goods was buying which was
a IA per cent. available phosphoric
acid goods on condition that ! would
use 1t on wheat and compare them,
side by side.

contained the potash In my grain drill

Nests of Lawbreakers Found Along
