CLIBRANS’ 
Garden Manures. 
Clibrans’ Nitrogen, Phosphate and Potash Manures. 
RATIONAL MANURING POSSIBLE AT LAST FOR EVERY GARDEN CROP. 
Of the various substances taken up by the roots of an ordinary healthy plant, three are of prime importance. These three are 
spoken of as nitrogen, phosphate, and potash, and their importance to the gardener is due partly to the fact that nearly all soils are 
deficient in one or more of these plant foods, and partly because different kinds of plants vary greatly in their demands on these different 
food ingredients. Potatoes and Peas, for instance, are so partial to potash that they may be described as potash lovers ; similarly 
Turnips and Beet may be regarded as phosphate lovers, and Cabbage, Vegetable Marrow, and Celery, as nitrogen lovers. It is obvious 
therefore, that no one manure, however carefully blended, can perfectly supply the needs of plants with such diverse requirements. 
For this reason we offer separately the three essential ingredients of all general manures, so as to enable the gardener to apply manures 
on rational principles, and in accordance with the requirements of each individual crop. All three manures have been most carefully 
blended so as to give a continuous soluble supply to the plant throughout the whole growing season. The phosphate manure occupies 
a unique position in so far as it is the only phosphate manure in general commerce capable of acting equally well on all classes of soil.

Clibrans’ Blood Manure. 
As a nitrogenous manure this is unequalled. It may equally well be mixed with the soil when preparing the compost as a top 
dressing, or to be used as a liquid manure at the rate of J-oz. to 1-oz. to the gallon. Place in water the day before using, and mix well 
when applying. Blood manure is not immediately soluble, but after being in contact with the soil for some lime, decomposition sets 
up, and it dissolves gradually. It is invaluable for all fruit and flowers, and particularly for promoting the growth of Vines, Roses, 
and Strawberries in pots.

what coarser, and therefore slightly slower in its action.
