VAUGHAN'S "ROSE-QROWER" 

 BONE MEAL 



This is a special brand we have put up for our trade. 

 It is ground fine, heiice acts quickly. It is made from 

 bone accumulated in large slaughterhouses, and should 

 not be compared with Bone Meal made from cattle 

 heads and feet gathered on the western prairies. Our 

 '•Rose Grower" Bone has been slightly steamed to 

 soften it so it can be ground fine, and is thus quicker 

 in its action. A finely ground bone can also be more 

 evenly distributed through the soil. Analysis. — 

 Ammonia, to 5}^ per cent; total phosphoric acid, 

 22 to 25 percent; total bone phosphate, 48 to 54 per 

 cent.
