Up to guarantee. 



Well ground, but deficient in phosphates. 



Well-dissolved Super, of first-class quality. 



Fine dry Superphosphate. 



Dry and in good condition. 



Ordinary good quality. 



Dry and in good sowable condition. Soluble phosphate is 

 deficient, and there is a corresponding excess of insoluble 

 phosphate. 



Moderately dry, and is up to guarantee. 



Dry and in very good condition. 



Good condition, and up to guarantee. 



Very dry and powdery, and in fine mechanical condition. 

 The phosphates are so much over guarantee as to suggest 

 that the guarantee was nominal— there is about a fifth of 

 a percentage of a deficiency in nitrogen. 



Dry and in very good mechanical condition. A slight 

 deficiency in insoluble phosphate is more than counter 

 balanced by excess of other ingredients over guarantee. 



Good sample, equally ground, and up to guarantee. 



Very good mechanical condition, in excess of guarantee. 



Very fine mechanical condition. The apparent deficiency 

 of insoluble phosphate is due to the considerable excess of 

 soluble. The total phosphate is above the total guarantee 

 1'he manure therefore must be considered as fully beyond 

 guarantee. 



In good condition, and up to guarantee. 



Up to guarantee. 



In fine sowable condition, and well up to guarantee. 



Of good quality. Contains less than an average amount 

 of sand. 



Fresh and in good condition, but shows a slight deficiency 

 all over in the analysis. 



Fresh and in good condition. 



Contains an unusually high percentage of starchy 

 material. It is not over 90 per cent, purity. 



Fresh and in good condition. It is of 98 per cent, purity. 

 In good condition, and is of 95 per cent, purity.
