Messrs Bisley Bros. and Co. Nelson.Dear Sirs, —We have to advice yon of our success with- Rockland- Bisic Phosphate Manure. We purchased twe tons from you, and although late in the reason, applied a ipiort'ort of it to one half of our CLOVER PADDOCK. The other half of this paddock we top dressed with. Basic Slag. The difference between the two manures was most marked, and WE HAD A REALLY WONDERFUL RESULT WITH THE BASIC PHOSPHATE. The portion manured with the .Basic Phosphate grew stronger, .taller, \ and! the / clover was bright green, whereas THE BASIC SLAG PORTION had a .yellowish tinge and WAS DECIDEDLY INFERIOR. We are so pleased with our success ■w'th this manure that we will use large quantities during the coming season. (Signed) NEWMAN BROS. Although the .paddock was not topdressed the following year the result was even more noticeable, which prove; that BASIC PHOSPHATE IS A LASTING MANURE. - Riwaka, March 11th, 1915.
