FERTILIZER FOR CORN.

Corn is an exhaustive crop; that IS
it take large amounts of plant food
from the soil. The question often
comes up, Does it pay to fertlllze
poor soil in order to raise corn on
it? The answer is yes. 1t pays pro-
viding you fertilize in the right way.
A seventy bushel crop of corn and
stalks will remove from the SOIL on
the average, about SO pounds of nitro
gen, 4S pounds of phosphoric acld
and So pounds of potash. 1t we give
these elements their commercial value
nitrogen, about Is cents per pound
and potash and phosphorfc acid ABOUT
cents per pound, we find that the value
of nitrogen removed would be $l2.45
of the phosphoric acid $2.SS, and OF
the potash $3.50. This makes total
fertilizer value of the crop $1S.65.
We see that good two-thirds OF this
value can be attributed to the nitro
gen. and the other one-third to the
other two elements, phosphoric acid
and potash. Where the ground 10
very poor we can see that 1t would
not nav to rely on commercial fer
tilizers for this entire nitrogen sup
ply. The other two elements, potash
and phosphoric acid, are low enough
in price, Sc, so that you can afford to
supply the entire needs of the crop
in them.
The nitrogen must be supplied for
the most part from a cheaper source
than commercial fertilizer, where corn
is to be grown. This source is readily
at hand in our clovers, and other
legumes, as cow peas and sofa beans.
There is no cheaper source for phos-
phoric acid and potash than the COM
mercial source. The cheapest source
of potash for corn would be muriate
of potash and of phosphoric acid,
super-phosphate or bone.
Where the nitrogen has been SIP
piled through clovers, a good all round
formula to apply to the average
ground for corn would be 2 per cent
nitrogen, per cent. phosphorlc acid
and per cent potash. This will give
about the best economic proportion.
Apply at the rate of 500 pounds to
the acre and the cost would be about
Sc per acre.-L. S. Hasselman, In the
Indiana Farmer.
LICE KILLING POST FOR HOGS
A correspondent writing of hog
raising in an exchange describes a
lice-killing post as follows; 1T con-
sists of a four-foot post set two feet
into the ground and made solid with
stone or cement. A two-inch hole is
bored from the top and centre of the
post down as far as the auger will
reach and if possible within six
inches of the ground. The auger hole
is kept filled with coal oil which will
soon find it's way to the surface and
make a self-oiling rubbing post that
the hogs will soon learn to use and
enjoy. The hogs will make daily use
of the rubbing post and will bring the
coal oil into contact with nearly ev-
cry part of their bodies where louise
finds harbor. The oil that finds its
way fYcm the hog to the bedding
reaches all parts of the body of the
hoe and will soon drive the lice from
the entire herd. The breeder that
will experiment with the lice-killing
post will soon place one in each lot

IRON HOLDERS.

Use old stockings and hooks from
old side garters to make holders for
1atirons and to handle cooking uten-
sils. Sew the hooks inside one corner
of each holder, letting only enough
project to hang UP in a convenient
place near the range. Make the hand
ling holders" half as thick as the
ironing holders. They are easier to
handle and can be washed daily. Keep
two in constant use; saves burning
your hands as well as keeping them
in good condition

SENDING LINEN TO LAUNDRY.


Here are few good rules for send
ing linen ito the laundry. All articles
should be legibly marked with fall
name in either cotton or ink. Mark
plainly where the letters will show
when the piece is folded, or freshly
ironed clothes will be tumbled in the
search for the distinguishing sign.
Look in pockets carefully before send
ing clothes off Turn socks and stock
ings inside out. For the sake of COM
mon humanity, be sure that no pins
remain anywhere Use rust proof
hooks and eyes. Mend clothes before
sending, or they will come back in
much worse condition. Tie handker-
chiefs in bundle by themselves. Take
off all buckles and detachable but
tons, and even any very valuable but
tons already sewed ou.-Boston Post.
