Excerpt from Fertilisers as an Aid to Profitable Farming, Vol. 1
The object of these pages is, by a simple statement of facts, to assist those engaged in Agriculture in the selection of suitable methods of manuring so that they may obtain the most profitable returns from their land.
It is not always the largest crops that are the most profitable. The cost of the manures employed may, through injudicious selection, be greater than the extra yield is worth. Artificial Manures, now popularly known as "Fertilisers," must be used intelligently to secure the most economical results.
During recent years numerous recommendations have been published, indicating that successful farming can only be carried on by the use of certain incomplete fertilisers; for example, by nitrogen in the form of nitrate of soda, sulphate of ammonia, or the newer forms derived from the air, by phosphates from basic slag, and so forth.
