Tl/'HY do you throw away your coal ashes, when by using them VV in your soil you grow better crops? There are plant food elements in coal ashes; ashes also help to keep the soli sweet; there are elements In ashes that dissolve plant food elements in the soil otherwise dormant. Ashes act as a solvent to the soil, keep the soil porous and fresh from stagnation. Don't waste your clinkers and ashes, spread them on your land to grow better carnations in your fields; your asters need good light soil. The leading growers use their coal ashes.
