FERTILIZING WHEAT.

A Mississippi correspondent wants
to know what commercial fertilizers
to apply to wheat sOwed this fall,
and il the advice to use 200 or 800
pounds of cottonseed meal to the acre
which he has seen in some papers,
will be profitable.
Wheat should not be sowed on any
except fairly fertile land and on such
we do not advise the application OF
any nitrogen-bearing commercial fer
tilizers in the fall. What Is wanted
most, in the fall growth Of wheat, Is
the development Of good strong
root system. 1t must be sowed early
enough to do this There. is no OBJ
lection to early sowing in sections
where the Hessian fly does not bother
except that the wheat may make too
large a growth. This can be con-
trolled by pasturing, when weather
and soil will permit; but in any case,
sowed at the right time, it is doubt
full If it will pay to apply cottonseed
meal in the fall. The plants do not
particularly need it. and there is too
great danger of loss during the win
ter. We would usually defer the ap-
plication OF itrogen-bearing COM
mercial fertilizers until spring and
then apply a top dressing to those
portions of the field not making
proper growth.
Nitrate of soda. at from 100 to 1875
pounds per acre, Is commonly used
for this purpose, but the advice some
times given to wait until the heads
are almost ready to shoot before ap-
plying 1t, is an error. The nitrogen
used should be put on early, as soon
as the plants have made good start
in their spring growth, and it can be
seen If this growth is not sufficiently
vigorous, or lacks a rich, dark green
color, indicating a need for more nj
trogen.
In the fall we would, in Missis-
sippi, apply only phosphoric acid at
seeding time. From 200 to $50
pounds of 6 per cent acid phosphate
may be used.
