to revert, even though it be not applied
to the soil, and there is some, as you
know, in a condition which cannot be-
come available to plants except through
the action of the acids which may ex-
list in the soil. This is one of the rea-
sons why vegetable matter becomes so
important to our land since 1t aids fer
mentation and the formation of various
organic acids. 1t would not be wise,
therefore, to apply lime and phosphoric
acid at the same time; in fact, ii is gen.
orally considered best to put lime on in
the fall and the fertiliZing material,
such as acid phosphate, the next spring.
To apply them together or near togther
is crtainly undesirable.
There is every reason to believe that
tile draining will prove profitable on
some of our uplands. Just how large an
area II can be used on advantageously
is. of course, problematical. No extern
sive experiments have been made in this
state in the matter of tile draining with
which / am familiar.

HOW BEST TO COMBINE FERTILI-
FER MATERIALS.

We would prefer to use a complete
fertilizer under the drill row A large
amount of nitrogen need not be applied
in this way, but = per cent can be used
with advantage on most farm crops.
The reason for putting some under the
drill row is because of the fact that 1t
tends to supply some plant food almost
Immediately, and thus stimulates a
vigorous growth on the part of the
young plant so recently emerged from
the seed, and not very well able to es-
tablish its relations to the soil without
assistance If your land is fairly well
supplied with nitrogen there is no rea-
son why you should not secure good
results from a 1914 or a 1915 mixture
with nitrate used as a side application
later in the season.
Nitrate of soda wiII not exhaust or
injure the soil more appreciably than
any other form of fertilizer. OF course
Il is a mistake to attempt to maintain
fertility through the mere use of COM
mercial Iplant food. The physical condt
ton of the soil has as much to do with Sc
curing a profitable crop as any other fac
tor, and as you probably know, CONNER
clal plant food dies not change or influN
ence the physical condition of the land
to any appreciate extent. A rotation
of crops in combination with the use
of commercial fertilizers will prevent
the injury which you anticipate and
will enable you to secure Increased
yields at the same time.

L. b., Eugene, Ga, writes: This may
be a simple question, but how can you
make bale OF cotton to the acre
where it has been making bale to
every three acres? have gray land
and most of it is flat. What do you
think of using fertilizer when you
plant and just before you lay by, and
what kind of fertilizer should 1 use?
Atlanta semi-weekly journal. (Atlanta, Ga.) 1898-1920, 1910-12-06

during the past year, and though il
may be fairly we'll improved. land must
be very literally fed in order to main
tain large yields. Moreover, soils tire
of one crop and a rotation Is more like
ly to give you increased yields than an
attempt to grow the same crop on the
land year after year.
Personally, in attempting to secure a
large yield of corn and cotton. we
would be disposed to proceed as follows;
The land must of course, be broken
thoroughly and carefully, subsofling II
there is heavy clay present. The prep
aration of the seed bed cannot be en-
phasized too strongly. Next apply not
less than 500 to 500 pounds of 1874
fertilizer on the land intended for
wheat. We would prefer to put this
crop in drills, say inches apart, seed
ing rather deeply and a semi-open fur
row. This will protect the crop more
completely from freezes, and the deeper
and better roofing secured has in our
experience resultd in a largr yield. In
the spring the wheat should be top
dressed with nitrate of soda, $50 pounds
being not too much to use We would
prefer, as a rule, to put this on in two
applications, one shortly after the
growth starts in the spring. and one
Just before the crop is shooting into
head.
For the cotton land prepare as indi-
Gated for wheat. Let it stand exposed to
the winter freezes. Try an application
of a ton of shell lime on this land, put
ting it on as early this fall as posi-
BILE. Scatter it uniformly over the soil
and do not harrow in until next spring
The baking of your land is due to its
deficiency in vegetable matter. The
lime may tend to help this, but the
thing you need above everything is q
supply of vegetable matter. In the hope
of securing a yield of two bales of cot
ton per acre we consider this essential
and would spare no effort to secure as
much as five tons of we'll rotted ma
lnure or compost per acre. This should
be applied under the drill row and mix
ed with not less than 500 to 500 pounds
of a Bios fertilizer. The mixing may
be done with bull tongue. Put the
fertilizer and manure in two weeks be-
fore planting and bed on this. We stir
the soil beneath our drill rows with
a bull tongue, the idea being to open
I'D the soil so the roots of the crop may
strike readily into it and spread out as
widely as possible between the drill
rows. A great bulk of roots most be
developed If one secures a large yield
Vegetable matter is important in ena-
bling the plants to resist drouth, and to
hold and mature the greater portion OF
the hollis set on. If necessary, we
would top dress the cotton with nitrate
but in our experience this has not prov
en- essential. The selection of a strong
vigorous, rapid fruiting type of cotton
is an important matter in securing
large yields.
