FERTILIZERS FOR COTTON.
Florida Soft Phosphate, Cotton
seed Meal. Crushed Cotton
Seed, Etc.

In 1896 in addition to expert
ments on the farm of the Alaba
ma station there We're conducted
under the direction uf the station
p fertilizer experiments with
cotton in as many different local..
ties. Reports were received from
"a sources, and the most conclu-
sive of these constitute the basis
for the result presented in a bull
letin on the subject of which the
following is a summary
Florida soft phosphate, also
known as natural plant food,
proved inferior to high grade acid
phosphate, pound for pound. The
nitrogen contained in crushed cot
ton seed and cottonseed meal was
equally valuable, pound for pound.
On an average one pound of cot
tonaeed meal proved as effective
as = 10 pounds of crushed cot
ton seed. In other words, 922
pounds of cottonseed meal proved
equal in fcrtilizin% value TO 1000
pounds of crushed cotton seed.
According TO these results. which.
however, may be influenced by
the unusual season, a farmer can.
not afford 10 sell cotton seed and
buy cOttonsecd meal until the ton
price of seed is at least 10 per
cent. of the ton price of the meal.
For example, with cottonsecd
meal at $50 per ton, crushed seed
is worth on the farm 1920 for
tcltilizing purposes.
In testing the needs of the cot
ton plant 200 pounds per acre of
cottonseed meal was used to fur
msh nitrogen, 240 pounds acid
phosphate to supply phosphoric
acid and 200 pounds kainit to af-
ford potash. These fertilizers
were not as rule applied singly,
but by twos and threes. The
chief need of The soil was appar
emily phosphoric acid in three
instances, potash in three cases
and nitrogen in five soils. On 3
of these II soils phosphoric acid,
potash and nitrogen were all
about equally effective. A com
plete fertilizer, containing all
three of the above mentioned fer
tilizer materials, was more effec-
tive on 9 out Of II soils than was
