HUMUS FROM CORN COBS. 



We have sent you a sample of hiiiiius 

 resulting from five years' decomposition 

 of corn cobs. Outside of its value, what 

 would you recommend it for? What 

 do you think of it for roses? Do you 



know of any nursery plants that would 

 be especially benefited by its use? 



V. A. D.— 111. 



1 should hesitate to use the hunuis, a 

 sanijjlo of which was received, on roses 

 or any other indoor-grown plants. Ap- 



plied as a top-dressing outdoors and 

 sweetened with lime, it would be of un- 

 doubted value. Land planted with nurs-. 

 ery stock, herbaceous perennials and 

 fruit trees might all be treated with this 

 humus. C. W.
