Thia may be applied twice, one-half around the first of March and the balance after the top ping season in mid-summer. In the case of rasplierries thia total amount nuiy is* applied in early spring. This far the experiment station has not gathered a great deal of data with fer tilising rasptierries. However, we have had markial increases from ap plications of this kind.
