WOOD ASHES
Potash, lime, and phoap orlc acid
are contained in Hardwoo Ashes, in
desirable form; for plant growth, and
ashes have been well named “Nature's
Plant Food." But they are really
more than a simple plant food. be-
cause, in addition to their fertilizing
proportion they act as a solvent oi
the soil, and form combinations that
enhance the value of latent plant food
already in the soil. The plant food
contained in Hardwood Ashes gives a
direct and prompt result, while the
action on the soil shows permanent re-
sults. Pieces of land where aches
have been liberally supplied have
shown the eflect for years after.
