Good For Three Years?
There are great many people
said Mr.. James M. Starr, yesterday
"who admit that nitrate Of soda is
most capital fertilizer; but who claim
that 1t is only good for one year. This
ia q mistake, and Mr.. ]. b. Scott ol
the Delphos neighborhood has called
our attention to some facts that Illus.
trate the truth very nicely. In fielc
on which Mr.. Scott desired to SOW
wheat year before last there Is q rec
knoll that was not nearly so rich as
the balance Of the field. With a view
to bringing this knoll up to the bal
ance, Mr. Scott put q sack OF nitrate
of soda on It, AS the result. this knoll
showed up better yield than the bal
ance Of the field. After the wheat was
taken off the field was sowed In peas
and the peas on the knoll were better
than anywhere else. Last spring the
whole field was fertilized alike all ovel
for cotton, and some days ago. Mr.
Scott said he could sit in his piazzs
200 yards away and distinguish by
the larger cotton stalks the portion OF
the field that was fertiliZed with nj
trate Of soda year before last"
