what we know and understand OF the
soils of Georgia at the present time.
we would suggest that you increase the
acid phosphate by about 50 pounds, and
we believe you might reduce the cotton
seed meal to 200 pounds with the idea OF
using about 100 pounds of nitrate OF soda
as a top dressing on the oats early next
spring. The amount Of fertilizer you are
proposing to use on oats and wheat is as
much as will ordinarily give a profitable
return. In our experience, which now
covers a number of years we have found
that the cereal crops do not respond as
well to heavy fertilization as corn and
cotton and various truck crops. About
800 TO 500 pounds, in other words, have
been found to be about the limit OF fer
tilization which can be used on these
crops to good advantagei that Is, for fall
application. Considerable amounts of nj
trate of soda. from one to two applica-
lions, can often be applied to cereal
crops with marked advantage in the

Land that has been in corn will OF
course require fairly heavy fertilization
for cereal crops, as corn is a much more
exhausting crop to the soil than cotton.

applied we would suggest that it be used
at the rate of 1000 to 1000 pounds per
acre. We would always prefer to buy the
caustic lime and slake it on the farm.
There is much less water in it and IT is
more active, and the saving in freight
amounts to a very considerable item. We
would suggest that you try lime on a

acres, using II in the two different
amounts suggested.

The Railroads and the Panic
Albany Herald.

Albany Herald.
The railroads of the country felt the
depression following the panic of two
years ago in common with the balance
of business and industrial interests. but
how well they succeeded in meeting the
changed conditions is shown by a COM
pilation of railroad earnings made by
the bureau of railway news and Stats
tics. This shows that in the year ending
June 30 the gross revenues were 81, COO. :
600 more than in the previous year, but
the net revenues increased 1000 600. The
operating expenses therefore, must have
been cut 5000. 900. This was a little
hard on the employees and the concerns
that furnish railroad materials and sup
plies, but the stockholders were well
cared for
The railroads suffered from the panic
and the ensuing depression in common
with the rest of the country, but they
have rallied about as quickly and as
surely as any other integral part of the
industrial world. There Is really little
ground for the complint that the rail-
roads have suffered from hostile public
opinion and confiscatory legislation.
have heard a good deal on that line here
in Georgia during the last two years, but
it has been mere politics.

There's a chance. many believe.

Where no legume has been grown on the
land and the soil is low in vegetable mat
ter and nitrogen, we would use a COM
plete fertilizer at the rate of 300 to 800
pounds per acre. A good formula may be
prepared as follows: Mix together LOCO
bounds of high-grade acid phosphate, 800
pounds of dried blood containing at least
Is per cent Of nitrogen, 100 pounds OF
muriate of potash and $40 pounds OF dry
earth. This mixture will contain approx
nnately 2 per cent Of nitrogen, per cent
Of phosphoric acid and per cent OF
potash. If preferable, you may use cot
ton seed meal as the source of nitrogen.
In that case you would need to use about
800 pounds, and reduce the dry earth pro-
portionately. The earth is only suggested
as a, filler to bring the amount up TO ZOO
pounds and secure the right percentages.

Land intended for wheat OF oats should
be well prepared. Where peas have been
grown, disking may often answer. but
as rule we prefer 10 turn the land. In
this way we loosen It up. aerate IT and
enable moisture to more readily penetrate
ii. We can also prepare a better seed
bed and secure more efficient distribution
OF both seed and such fertilizer as may
be necessary TO use. A complete fertilizer
should be used on land that has not grown
cowpeas. Where a good crop Of peas has
been harvested probably phosphate and
potash will answer every purpose. The
redder the land the less potash needed;
the grayer and sander. the more potash.
In your case, phosphates should be used
In liberal amounts. We believe 200 pounds
Of high-grade acid phosphate and at least
p pounds OF muriate OF potash should be
used on red clay land, and probably the
same amount Of phosphates and 50 pounds
Of potash on sandy land for cereal crops.

Corn Stalks May Take Place Of
Wood.

Prof. B. I. Galloway, of the Agrl-
cultural department at Washington,
has been experimenting with corn
stalks as material for making paper,
and announces that great progress has
been achieved along this line While
he does not say that the experiments
so far prove that the thing is actually
accomplished and is commercial sue
cess, he is very hopeful that it will
work out satisfactorily.
The paper workers are greatly in
terested in the experiments because,
if it turns out that this great product
of the farm can be turned into good
paper it will rave a marked effect on
the paper making industry.
CornstalkS are about the cheapest
product grown OH the farm, and while
not entirely useless as stock food, mil
liens of acres are allowed to go entire
ly to waste every year.
Paper making wood is becoming
somewhat scarce, although there is no
such famine in the Northern woods as
some alarmists would have US believe.
If, however, the Government succeeds
in making good paper out Of cornstalks
the wood will last longer and the price
! of paper will mot be advanced to a
point where its use would necessarily
be restricted.
The Government has done many great
things for the benefit of the farmers,
but if the cornstalk experiments prove
successful this achievement will rank
am ing the most beneficial.
1t will be a great day when the
farmer can read the news printed on
paper made from the cornstalks grown
in his own field.
