ti c The Farmers' Mauriceville Lime Co. Limited A PURELY FARMERS' COMPANY. Mr. B.C. ASTON, F.1.C., the Government Expert, writing in "The Agricultural Journal," says : — "Those who inspect the Mauriceville Lime Company's Works are impressed with the wonderful natural facilities that exist for working the immense deposit of high grade limestone which occurs there. This is an isolated hill,, rising from the plain to a height of about 200 feet, composed of almost pure limestone. There is practically no stripping to do. It is an easy quarry to work, and the quality of limestone is high, about 95 per cent." Extract from Mr. PRIMROSE McCONNELL'S report on Manures which appeared in " The Journal of Agriculture," dated 20th January, 1914 :— LIME. " All experiments prove that although lime may not be accepted as a direct plant food, yet where it is not present in the soil in sufficient quantity other manures are, to a great A extent, applied in vain. Hence it maybe accepted as one of ' • the main essentials'in successful manuring." New Works are now in course of erection which will give an output of 80 tons a day.
