ROCK PHOSPHATES.
(By Telegraph.—Press Association.)
DUNEDIX, Wednesday. The need for more critical research into the uses of rock phosphates in the Dominion was emphasised by Mr. A. W Hudson, of Maesey Agricultural College and Mr. J. W. Woodcock, of the Department of Agriculture, in the course of a paper given at the annual conference of the New Zealand Grassland Association at Dunedin to-day. The evidence favoured the use of phosphates, and long-term investigations might emphasise their value still further. There was the possibility that other forms of phosphates might prove more desirable over a long period of years The point is we do not know," added the writers of the paper, "and it is necessary that we should obtain the information."
