The ground is now ready for application
of fertilizers.
The fertilizer suggested and the guam
titles to be used are as follows: 500 to
800 pounds per acre, containing 5 per
cent ammonia, 6 per cent available
phosphoric acid and per cent potash.
Before distributing this fertilizer in the
dead turrow, or water burrows as they
are sometimes called, Il sub soiler should
be used, going twice in the dead furrow,
subsoiliug as deeply as possible Then
distribute the fertilizer, either by hand,
or by one-horse fertilizer distributor,
such as the Gnatt distributor Then
60 through with bull tongue, which
mixes the fertilizer thoroughly with the
soil.
After having distributed the fertilizer
as above, bed back, throwing dirt to
row feet on either side. This leaves
permanent beds 6 feet wide with a
dead or water furrow between each bed
Plant in center of new bed over fer
tilizer, making hills four feet apart, and
planting to s seeds in hill, covering
the seed not over half an inch deep.
This planting, if cottonseed meal is
used as a source of nitrogen, should not
be done until ten days after the ferti-
lizer is distributed. Plant as early in
the spring as possible, and as caution
against Frost ten days after planting,
replant by placing the seed in the
ground by the side, not in, the
original hill. By so doing if the first
planting is killed by frost, the second
is terminating, and by planting by the
side of the hills, you will not disturb
the young vine that has not yet reached
the surface. REMEMBER DON'T PLANT
DEEP.
After the young vine has made its
appearance and has passed the stage
where it might be injured by insects,
thin down to two vines, leaving of
course, the most vigorous. The ground
should be cultivated with light cult
vator as soon as the hills show young
vines. Cultivate this bed frequently,
removing all natural growth that is not
destroyed by cultivator, with hoe, re.
membering that at all times one of the
best fertilizers is muscular energy
After the preparation of the soil, all
cultivation should be surface cultivation
This is necessary, as the little canta
loupe feeders are found close to the
surface. Stir the ground frequently,
allowing no grass or weeds to grow, a,
