BONE FERTILIZERS. 
Decompose slowly in the soil and, therefore, form 
excellent permanent improvement, less likely than 
any other fertilizer to waste. With bone there is no 
danger of burning the plants. Excellent for top- 
dressing lawns and grass lands, for garden and field 
crops. 
ANALYSIS: 1 ton contains 74 Ibs. nitrogen, 170 Ibs. 
Phosphoric acid, 2 lbs. potash; all available. 
Quantity required. For permanent pasture and 
mowing lands, ¥ to 1 ton per acre. For trees and 
vines, 2 to 4 quarts each. For top-dressing,1,000 to 
1,500 Jbs. per acre. For field and garden crops, % to 
1 ton broadcasted and harrowed in. For rose beds, 
Pot plants, ete., one part to about fifty of soil. 
Raw Ground Bone. Thijs is moderately fine and 
particularly adapted for general fertilizing; the finer 
Particles are immediately beneficial, the coarse keep-
