T ¥ ll l ' m.' After tcpDrcsslnq with Rockland' Superphosphate f Experience of Mr. J. C. Diack, Waikouaiti Carried 21 Cows to the Acre after Top-Dressing A 9-acre paddock was top-dressed last June * with 44/46% “Rockland” Superphosphate—--2 cwts. to the acre. By October a splendid growth of grass and clover was obtained, and , the herd of dairy cows, 24 in number, was turned in to graze. This nine acres grazed the herd until March, te., carried 2| cows to the acre for six months of the year. The only time during that period that the cows were off the paddock was an occasional Sunday when they were turned into a-ifearby paddock which had not been top-dressed. It is a significant fact that immediately the cows were grazed on pasture that had not been top-dressed the milk yield dropped 501bs. per day, and the average butter-fat test dropped two points as well. Before top-dressing with Superphosphate, Mr. Diack had trouble with his cows chewing blue gum bark, due to the deficiency of phosphate in the herbage. Since top-dressing, the cows have ceased chewing bark completely—the mineral content in the grasses and clover having been increased by the Superphosphate. This striking example of profitable returns from topdressing pastures with “Rockland”, Super is particularly important, as it was obtained in a district commonly considered a light rainfall area. Even in parts of Australia where the annual rainfall is but little over 12 inches, top-dressing has shown marked results. THE SECRET of success lies in using high-grade “Rockland ” Superphosphate, , 44/46%, not less than 2 cwts. per acre, and, though good results are secured in the spring, maximum results are obtained by application in autumn or early winter, so that the winter rainsxan wash it into the roots of the grasses and clover. ** Rockland” Procurable through all Stock and 'Station Agents and Produce Merchants MANUFACTURERS; Kempthorne, Prosser & Co.’s New Zealand Drug Co.
