Some soils are more acid than others at this season, and Kempthorne, Prosser and Co. are prepared to go still further and vary their "Special" Turnip Manures to suit individual requirements, at no extra cost. As they already offer a- substantial discount to purchasers of lairgjs ; quantities it would be wise for those interested to write immediately, stating soil conditions and an early and bene- •' ficial reply would soon be forthcoming.
