 required more than any others. However,

 the plant needs, such as iron and so on. 

 It would be highly important, in pur-

 much better to buy a fertiHzer with a high 

 blood tankage base than it would with a 

 low bone or leather base, as the blood 

 tankage would be more available in the 



season.

 used is one that will turn the furrow in 

 such a way that it is partly inverted and 

 is partly broken, as well as thrown over,
