LIME! LIME! PULVERIZED Shell Lime can now be obtained in Bags of 2 cvvt each at 35s per ton or 4a per bag, net cash, delivered in town. What good does this Lime do when spread on the surface of the soil ? It supplies the lime which all plants require as part of their food. It combines with acids in the soil so as to remove the sourness of the land. It gradually disposes the vegetable matter of the soil to change into soluble food for plants ; and lastly, it acts upon the mineral matter of the soil so as to fit it for entering in to the roots of growing plants. For the Field, Garden, or Orchard it is indispensable, and will not injure the most sensitive plants. Sole Agent for Wangauui— JAMES LAIRD, Taupo Quay STATIONERY AND FANCY GOODS REPOSITORY. MRS J. J.
