Convincing Evidence of the Superiority of Superphosphate Extract from N.Z. Journal of Agriculture, 20th May, 1923, page 285, giving results of Pasture Top-Dressing Experiments conducted by Department jf Agriculture at Te Kuiti The fertilizers were applied on Bth and 9th September last. These dates were late for slowly soluble fertilizers such as raw rock phosphate and basic slag, but this was unavoidable without mtssing a season, as the offer of the field was only made to the Department in. August last. The field was shut up in October, and cut and weighed as hay in January. The weighing occupied two days, and was completed on 16th January. The following table gives the first season’s results after the grass was made into hay, and the yields thus recorded : Yield per Acre: Percentage Fertilizer used. ’ Amount per Mean Average of Percentage increase due to !

I THE SUPERORITY OF ! | WATER-SOLULE PHOSPHATE | J WATER-SOLUBLE Phosphate is dissolved by the A first shower of rain that falls after it has been ap- A R plied to the soil. I i WATER-SOLUBLE Phosphate is thus carried A i down to the roots of the plants automatically, where it at once begins its work of nourishing your crops. A WATER-SOLUBLE Phosphate is the form of A Phosphate which gives' the quickest and most reli- A fa able results, as has been conclusively demonstrated y by countless experiments made in all parts of the A world. A I Superphosphate I I IS THE ONE AND ONLY FORM OF $ '? WATER-SOLUBLE PHOSPHATE. V I Manutaetured from Hi S h -S rade Nauru/Ocean Phosphate.
