Nitrate of Soda, or Chili Saltpeter 



Nitrate of Soda is not a substitute for other manures, 

 but we recommend it as the cheapest and best form in 

 whicli to apply nitrogen to plants. Gardeners who are 

 using farm manure should continue to use it, but use 

 Nitrate of Soda in addition. If your object is to grow 

 maximum crops you must in some way furnish the plants 

 with nitrate. No matter what manure or fertilizer Is 

 used, the nitrogen must be converted into nitrate before 

 the plants can use it. 



How to use Nitrate of Soda. 



The lumps in this should be removed by sifting; they 

 should be broken up, which is easily done by pounding.
