It is easier to keep your soil ricli than to re-build it after it has been de
pleted. The scarcity of Potash makes it all the more important to use the otheir
atid more necessary elements of plant-food, Ammonia and Phosphoric Acid. If
ybu could not get meat, you would hot, on that account, also do without bread,
but, if anything, would eat more. Treat your crops in the 6ame commonsense
way. .

They will strengthen and enlarge your plants arid make them more able to assimilate whatever natural
