A Well-kept Orchard in the Famous Annapolis ValleyJ 

 Owned by J. ELLIOTT SMITH, Wolfville, N.S. 



For many years Mr. Smith has been fertilizing his orchard with Bone Meal and Muriate 

 El of Potash. The Nitrogen is supplied by growing and plowing in cover crops of clover 



Dominion Agricultural Offices of the Potash 



Manager : B. LESLIE EMSLIE, P.A.S.I 



While in general farm practice. Potash is ap- 

 plied to the land in the Spring, numerous experi- 

 ments have demonstrated its greater effects on 

 the succeeding crop, when applied in the Fall. 

 Especially is this true of Orchards. 



Potash and Phosphatic Fertilizers do not leach 

 from the soil, but, aided by moisture are gradu- 

 ally rendered available to the feeding roots of 

 the plants. 



If you neglect to fertilize your Orchard you 

 cannot expect large returns. 



Try an application of : 



200-lbs. Muriate of Potash and 

 400>lbs. Acid Phosphate or fine- 

 ly ground Bone Meal 



These materials are stocked by all leading 

 Fertilizer Dealers and Seedsmen.
