IMPROVED BASIC SLAG.
BETTER, CHEAPER, NON-ACID. All users of top-dressing will be very interested in the greatest improvement in top-dressing, manures for the past 50 Or 100 years.' Mr. John Heskett, M-A-I.M. and M.E.M.1.5.1. (London), manager of the Onekaka Iron and Steel Works at Nelson, has probably more knowledge of blast furnaces and basic slag residues than any man in New Zealand, his family having been connected for generations with the iron refining and basic slag industry in England. After years of patient work Mr. Heskett has patented a fur-, nace process by which a perfect high grade quick-acting basic, slag can be made in New Zealand, which slag is far superior in results and trials to anything that has ever been produced. So revolutionary are his discoveries that master patents have been granted in most countries of the world at a cost to him of over £5009. This new slag is available from dairy factories and stores throughout Taranaki. An advertisement appears on page 11 of I this issueß
