EERTIIIZING THE WHEAT CROP.
q. B. B., Chamblee, Ca, writes: Please
give me a formula for home mixture
for. wheat, and the analysis of the same.
I do not think 1 can buy ready-made
goods suitable for crop on the land l
wish to seed. It is gray with red clay
subsoil. Part Of the field was planted
to sweet potatoes this season. Will make
100 to la5 bushels per acre. Used about
500 pounds of 1923 goods per acre. The
other part is in corn ana will average
25 bushels. Used on 1t $50 to 400 pounds
of same fertilizer in three different APP
plications. Is there any better variety
for this section than that commonly
called Blue Straw?
Atlanta semi-weekly journal. (Atlanta, Ga.) 1898-1920, 1909-11-12

A good formula to use under wheat on
land such as you describe may be pre-
pared as follows: Mix 600 pounds Of
high-grade cottonseed meal, 1000 pounds
of acid phosphate and 100 pounds of mu-
riate of potash This mixture will weigh
l,76O pounds, and to bring the weight up
TO 1000 pounds, you will have to add 24O
pounds OF rich compost, though, Of
course, dry earth of any kind will do,
but the compost will make the mixture
more valuable than the ordinary earth.
BY high-grnde cottonseed meal we mean
that which contains no less than els
pounds of nitrogen, 2 pounds of phospho-
ric acid and 1.5 pounds of potash per
100 pounds The acid phosphate should
contain Is per cent of available phos-
phoric acid. If it does not you would
have to use a larger amount than is here
suggested. Muriate of potash will prob
ably furnish potash in as cheap form
as you can purchase it. The foregoing
mixture would contain about 81 per cent
Of nitrogen, Sc per cent of phosphoric
acid and "A per cent of potash. This
would contain the fertilizing ingredients
needed for wheat in about the right pro-
portion and should make a good fertil-
izer to use on gray land with a red
clay subsoil. You will notice that we

and if nothing intervened, that plan
would be adopted as the best way
in which to supervise the work.
The construction and grade work
will be in the control of Messrs Da-

1t has not yet been decided by the
stockholders whether it would be ad-

lower branch, or whether work should
be employed on both ends, simultan-

Summer Resort Plann z 1t
Lakes If Famous :
Orchard.
PARK PLANNED FOR
SUMMER AMUSEMENT
Swimming, Boating and ALI
Kinds of Sports to Be
Furnished.

Solving the problem of Walla Wal
las entertainment during the long,
hot, summer months, a we'll defined
scheme has been launched that viii
meet every demand and will furnish
TO residen,s of this valley an ideal
place in which to indulge in any of
the summer pastimes.
The scheme embraces the estab-
lishment of a modern first class resort
on the site of the famous Blalock
ponds west of the city, and if complet
ed will afford everyone opportunity for
swimming, boating and any of the GUS
tOmary outdoor sports.
When the plans for subdividing the
1500-acre tract comprising the Blalock
fruit farm We're first formulated 1t
was decided to lay off the land sur
rounding the ponds in a separate tract
and sell it to any person or organiza-
tion thai desires to open an amuse-
ment park Nothing definite has been
decided in this matter but should the
sale be made, the company has a
number of attractions to offer to the
highest bidder. 1t is the in ention to
secure an eectric line through the
tracts from a spur near the buildings
on the farm.
Although the plans and specifica-
tions for remodeling the tract on
which the ponds are loca ed are still
in their infancy, Walla Walla capital
has been interested, and within the
next week it is thought work will be
taken up. An appropriate name is to
be selected for the resort, and The in
ten,ion of the promoters will be to
arrange for a place that will take the
pace of Meador park, which has been
in use for the past two years, but
which may not be fl ted up this sum-
mer.
TIE close proximity of the Blalock
ponds to the ely viii make it possible
Tor the ttaction company to give a
much better car service than had been
in effect on The MeadOr park line dur
ing the summer mon hs, and Walla
Wallans in search Of recreation and
amusement would, by the plan of the
promo. ers of the new enterprise, be
accorded an opportunity of finding
such after few minutes ride on the
electric cars.
Manager Tourtelotte of he Blalock
farm. IS out of the city this week and
final arranGemG Of the transfer to
the new proprietors will probably be
held up until his return.

divided. this property to be sold as
city lots. In addition to this work
streets throughout the entire orchard
will be graded and active operations
along this line will commence in a few
days.
The plans Of the company are to
plant the ground to the choicest vari-
eties of apple trees and practically all
of the land not now in orchard will be
set to trees in the near future 1t is
estimated that over $4,000 trees will be
used for this purpose and if plans do
not miscarry, this work will be COM
pleted by next fall. A large force OF
men are now engaged in leveling the
different plats preparatory to plant
ing the trees and following this the
as rapidly as possible.
A Unique manner of fencing the vari-
Gus tracts which are to be sold has
been resolved upon. Each purchaser
will be required to enclose his prop
erty with a regulation white fence
consisting of post, cross rail and
chicken wire all painted white, produc.
ing in this manner q most pleasing
and clean effect
1t has been estimated that when the
entire tract is sold a population of not
less than 5000 people can live on the
grounds and as it is proposed to sell
the land at reasonable prises, based on
the present income of the ground with
easy terms and long payments, this
will be q matter of but few months.

What is undoubtedly the largest
subdivision development work ever un-
dertaken in the northwest is now in
progress on the land of the Blalock
Fruit farm west of the city. The plans
of the company contemplate the SUBJ
division of the entire tract of 1900
acres a portion Of which is in high
state of cultivation at the present time
and a large part of it being in orchard
which is famous the world over.
This orchard will be divided into
acre tracts averaging from one to two
and a half acre each and artesian
water will be developed and piped un-
der pressure, the pipes being laid un-
der ground, to every separate tract
At the present, four artesian wells have
been encountered and work is being
rushed on the fifth.
Ernest c. Woods, formerly assistant
surveyor of Spokane, hydraulic, civil
and mining engineer, with two assist
ants. has been engaged for the past two
weeks in locating the section lines and
doing the other preliminary work, pre-
paratory to locating the drlveWays
stalking out the tracts, ETC., and thls
work is nearly completed.
Estimates for the enormous Quant1-
ties of piping to be used in this vast

work of making it is now in the hands
OF the manufacturers.
