Normanby Patent Slag Manure
. . . . by Helen Bynum sent 10th April 2019
I found an advert in the Gardener's Chronicle May 22, 1897 which refers to 50 pounds in prizes for the best 12 potatoes or 6 turnips grown using Normanby patent slag manure, applicants to apply to the Normanby Iron-works co. Middlesbrough exhibits for the Stokesley Show.
Does anyone in your group have any information on the patent manure?
Thanks for any help,
--------Helen Bynum (near Beccles, Suffolk)--------
