Fertilizer N OteS.

Acid phosphate is often sold under
the following names: SuperphOsphate,
Soluble Bone, and Dissolved Bone The
first expression is good, but the last
two are trade names which are little
misleading. Probably not one acid
bone, and if it did, the available phos-
Dhoric acid would have no more value
than from any other source. Similar
names are used for mixtures of acid
phosphate and potash.
Acid phosphate can be used in place
OF kainit to prevent loss Of ammonia
from stable manure.
\ number of firms blacken their
goods by means of some such useless
material as Ignite or graphite. The
claim is made that the farmer wants
black fertilizers. The chief objection
is that the farmer must pay for this
extra rich appearance. 1t should be
stated, however, that a black phOS
phate is mined in Middle Tennessee.
Ammonia and nitrogen, as trade eX-
pressions, are often used interchange
ably. The latter is the more accurate
term, as in reality ammonia is seldom
found in fertilizers. Nitrogen is the
element desired, so that an ammonia.

acts the most quickly and is the most
available of all forms. The nitrogen
of ammonium sulphate is nearly as ac-
tive. while it is less easily lost from
the soil. COttOn-seed meal and dried
blood come next in availability, and
are still less liable to be lost by leach
ing. On the whole, tankage contains the
most unavailable form Of nitrogen, and
along with tankage should be put most
of the bone meals.
1t would be to the farmers interest
to insist on knowing the source OF the
nitrogen in complete fertilizers. The
chemist of the Fertilizer Inspection
could nearly always tell this without
extra trouble
The value of a bone meal depends
largely on it's f1neness. If we demanded

Adaptation of Forage Plants to Soils.
With reference to the selection of
forage plants adapted to different re-
gions, the soils of the South Atlantic
and Gulf States may be classified as
follows:
a. Yellow loan soils; CO. alluvial
and river bottom soils; Co. black prai-
rie soils; a. pine woods soils.
The forage plants most successfully
Grown for different purposes on these
soils are enumerated below:
Forage Plants for Yellow Loan
&OilS.-FOr permanent meadows on
rich land, Bermuda grass; for a hay
crop to occupy rich land two years, red
clover; for a single hay crop on fair
soils, cOWpeas; on poor soils, lespe-
leza. For permanent pastures, Ber
nluda grass and lespedeza, to which
may be added Oh dry soils, orchard
Grass, smooth bronze grass, and bur

that have now as large and healthy
tops as when they were first grown
(all new healthy wood) l have some
that were cut back this spring that
have made a growth of over five feet,
they will be shortened in this fall, and
next year they will have grown an en-
tire new head, capable of bearing a
fine crop of peaches. These trees are
fourteen years old and have borne
eleven crops, the most of them full
crops. The trunks and roots of these
trees are perfectly sound and free
from bOrers. There has been sold from
Il single tree over ten dollars worth of
fine peaches in a season.
My method is not to allow my trees
to overbear When they hold a full
crop, too full for the health of the
trees, they are thinned out early in
the season, leaving the fruit about six
inches apart. These trees receive
heavy application of muliate of potash
and acid phosphate every year, crop or
no crop, and is generally put on in the
fall; c0wpeas are planted between the
rows of trees, we generally plant the

niSh the nitrogen and humus to the
soil. as we'll as Il growing mulch. Dur
ing the fruit season, they keep the
ground cool and moist by their heavy
foliage, which aids the maturing and
liDening Of the fruit.
During dry seasons | have noticed
that if it had not been for this grow
inc mulch there would have been a
serious loss from fallen immatured
fruit Nature furnishes a mulch in the
forests by fallen leaves around the
roots of trees, and under these leaves
there is always moisture and fertility
brought up by the capillary attraction,
and for the orchard trees there is no
better mulch than the southern cow
peas planted between the rows. The
planting of orchards with crops that
require long cultivation, exposing the
soil to sunlight and heat, without any
'pgard to the mulch OF the baking pro
Dpnsities Of the soil, in my opinion is
all wrong.
AS to the method of trimming, | cut
back One-half of each years growth;
the object is to keep the head of the
tree in proper shape and to keep every
year, as much new growth of wood as
possible. Cultivation of orchards
should cease by the last Of June in the
South, to let the new wood ripen by
fall
1t may not be amiss for me to again
give my method of fighting the borers.
IN the fall | dig around my trees and
expose the roots thoroughly, examine
all indications of borers, and if any, dig
them out with small wire, then in the
spring | whitewash the tree from
crotch to roots with a preparation OF
the following ingredients: To every
five gallons of wash, add one quart OF
soft soap. one pound of sulphur, one
quart of crude carbOlic acid with
handful Of salt. This | spread Oh

Compound Rhyminr Words.

In the south they have a very express
sive phrase for one indifferently we'll
''frobly -mobly''-and to be in hubble

when a person is overpowered with as
tonishment, he is said to be much

polite. "Huck- muck" Is an expression
of like character, meaning foul, miry,
and in Devonshire a bedraggled, be-
smirched person is said to be ''muoksoD
up to the huckson."
In Worcestershire a wavering, un-
stable or worthless man is called a
''meckle-keclzle fellow" and it is
worthy of remark that in Derbyshire
poor ore is called "keckle-meckle." An
awkward simpleton is called harvey

In Warwickshire they style such a one as

them, the figs We're perfectly whole

The plaintiff, coster, who conduct

retorted so holly that the judge threat

At length the coster grew desperate
