Tall and Dwarf varieties of Nasturtium or Indian Cress are equally popular and effective in the positions to which their different heights are adapted. They are of the easiest cul'ure— no transplantingis necessary— and their brilliantly coloured, bell-shaped blooms, and the varied shades of green of the leaves, are much admired. They are being more grown from year to year, .=haring in the revived popularity that is so apparent in regard to Sweet Peas Do hest in a sunny situation, and the land should not be over-rich.

FERTILIZERS. ALBERTS' THOMAS PHOSPHATE POWDER. Has been proved by

carefully conducted and comparison with other makes of artifical manures, taking its price into account, to be by far the most profitable in its application to Roots, Corn, Grain, Hay or Pasture. Its lasting effect is one of its greatest advantages over other manures, audit is claimed by many who have used it extensively, even over Barn yard Manure, and its merits for top dressing Lawns. Hay or Pasture lands are remarkable. We ask all our customers to give it a trial, and if they do, are convinced they will find great profit in the using of it. As a top dresBing for Fruit Trees or small fruits u has produced most satisfactory results There is another importantpoiut viz., that roots produced by Thomas phosphate powder have a very high feeding value in comparison with those grown from other manures. In some experiments there ha\ e been as much as 18 to 20per cent, of albuminoids or flesh formers in favor of the Thomas phosphate powder. Please note this, because th' re will be the same result with all crops. We have not space here to give full particulars of the many advantages of the Al.'ierts' Thomas Phosphate Powder, but on application we shall mail, free, an exhaustive pamphlet in re-
