The manures are not mixed unt'l the orders are sent out, and purchasers at their option can h»ye the original man* urej sent to them in the makers' bags, and make the mixtures themselves. Special Mixtures can be made at any time to suit farmers, ' Note,- The "M " gave the best re* suits in proportion to cost out of nineteen experiments with Champion Swede Turnips at the lioverament Experimental Farm at Momohaki, in 1897 (see page 170, Fifth Report of Agricultural Department) :— Tbe experiments made at Momohaki with various manures upon tilrnips in the season 1898- 1899 show ' that tbe best result was obtained from a mixture of one third steamed bono dust and two-thirds basic slag (Thomas' Phosphate), while the best result, at a minimum cost was from a mixture of one* third ' Lawes' Superphosphate and two--1 thirds of tLe W-M E. Co.V 'M' Manure. The latter isixture contain*^ Jhe same components as the W.M.E. Co/s No 3 Mixture, the proportions being a little different. The. former combination points to the fact now generally recog* i msed, that the value cf basic slag, also known as Thomas' Phosphate, has been greatly underestimated. 7 he W.M.E. Co.'s No. 4 Mixture contains one-third of Thomas' Phosphate. A perusal of the report of Mr Gilland- ' ers, tbe manacer at Momohaki, embody* I mg the resuits of tke experiments re> f erred to, whioh will be found in the Seventh Report of the Department of Agriculture, would amply repay any - farmer who finds a difficulty in selecting ' the most suitable manures. \ The Company receives STOCK fob FREEZING upon owner's account at the following rates (to include Slaughter* ing.
