which nitrate of soda might be used
with advantage if put on Immediately.
The objection to applying nitrate when
the wheat and oats are shooting into
head or about ready to do so is that it
promotes an undue amount of growth
at the expense of grain. There is a
tendenc yin many localities to delay the
application of nitrate of soda to these
crops until too late in the season, and
then the farmer is disappointed in the
results obtained from its use. 1 have
no doubt that an application of nitrate
on this ground early in the season
would have proven profitable, judging
from the method of handling which has
been followed and the fact that it was
in wheat last year, Of course, if the
season continues wet, the use of nitrate
will not be so important, because the
plentiful supply of moisture in the soil
and the well known solvent action of
water will enable the crop to gather a
larger supply of plant food than would
be possible in a dry season. In our
judgment, heavier application of fer
tilizers in the fall is advisable on wheat
and oats than is generally practiced. We
believe on most soils 400 to 500 pounds
of an S-2-3, or on sandy lands, 9-3-4
will prove profitable under cereals. Ce-
reals are not easier to produce where
one seeks a satisfactory yield than cot
ton; yet we would fertilize the same land
much more literally for cotton than for
oats and wheat. Ordinarily about the
right application of nitrate of soda on
cereals is 100 pounds per acre, though
on corn, $50 pounds per acre should be
used. 81 = bot

The preparation of the land for corn
this year is a difficult problem because
the rains have been so heavy and per-
sistent up to this time that the land
is so wet any distance from the surface
that deep blowing and cultivation are
frequently impracticable. We would be
disposed to prepare the land by plow-
ing to a depth of six or eight inches,
though even if one has to wait until
unusually late to plant the corn. for
the preparation of hessoil is one of the
great determining factors in the yield
to be secured. We. think 1T well to
bury the stalks and-weeds as com
pletely as possible. If observation and
experience are worth anything, many
farmers are making the mistake this
year in spite of the discouraging con-
ditions they have to contend with IN
endeavoring to plant their usual area OF
crops without properly preparing the
land. The writer has observed much
corn and cotton planted in the water
burrows of last year. 1t will be al
most a miracle if satisfactory crops are
raised under these conditions, for with
such preparation of the soil a very
short dry period at. any season Of
growth will prove very destructive to
both corn and cotton. After blowing
the land a good seed bed should be
prepared and then fertilized well at the
rate of coo pounds per acre of a 9-S-4
We believe you will find this good
formula for second bottom land in your
section of the state Shallow surface
cultivation will be advisable. On land
which Will make sixty-five bushels per
acre we think you will find a medium
cared or big-eared sort of corn more
satisfactory probably than one of the
prolific types We would suggest that
you plant in about 4 to IL foot rows
and leave your stalks about II to Is
inches apart in the row. The advisa-
bility of using a side application of the
fertilizer formula suggested above will
depend very largely on seasonal condi-
lions from this date forward.

MAIN LINE MILEAGE
is GOOD ON BRANCHES
Roads in South Carolina
Amend Rule Presidents
Make Statements
(By Staf Correspondsat1
s~ JOURNAL BUREAU

--.. - Jerome Hotel
COLUMBIA, S. G, May 2O.-At the
request of the RAILROAD commission the
South Carolina railroads have modified
their rule not to issue Interchangeable
milage books for journeys wholly with
in the state. The rule is changed so
that mileage book issued for the main
line of railroad will be good on all
lines controlled by the main system.
The commission was in receipt Of a
letter today from President w. W. Fin
ley, of the Southern railroad, in which
he stated that mileage books good on
the Southern would also be good on the
Blue Ridge railway. 20 a similar letter
was received from T NJ. Emerson, pres
ident of the Atlantic Coast Line, in
which he stated that books good on his
line would also be good over the
Charleston and Western Carolina. Mile
age issued on these roads will be ac-
copied on trains, but. both letters state
that suit will be filed to test the validity
of the recent state law.
Requiring roads in South Carolina to
accept mileage on trains and that it
must be understood that the compliance
with the commissions request will not
be allowed to prejudice the rights of
the roads in this suit.
President B. L. Caughnan, of the
commission, has written to Mr.. Emer-
son to know for certain of his acque-
sence in which the commission includes
also the making good of the Coast
Lines books OH the Charleston-Gr
willie train that traverses the Columbia.
New Berry and Laurens railroad. The
rue of the railroads not to issue inter-
changeable books in the state was put
into effect May 1st, to effect state law,
which went into effect the same day re-
quiring mileage to be accepted on
trains.

Judgina from. the preparation made
for your Dat crop and the application
of fertilizer referred to it will not
pay you to add. anything further in the
way of fertilizing, and there, is little
else you can do at this season which
is likely to benefit the oat crop. Cot
ton seed by themselves will not make
good fertilizer for corn as they do
not contain the plant food elements in
the right proportions. A mixture of
1900 pounds of seed. 200 pounds of 16
per cent acid, and 100 pounds of mu-
riate of potash will give you a very
good formula for corn if you use it at
the rate of 500 to 700 pounds per acre.

COLUMBIA. S. c., May 2O.-The date
after which it will be unlawful in
South Carolina to sell condensed skim
med milk in less than one gallon capa-
city has been extended by Commits
sioner of Agriculture E. ]. Watson,
from June Goth to August goth. ~
The change is made that dealers may
have full opportunity to dispose of all
stock which they may now have on
hand. Commi sSioner Watson is also
mailying out notices to the cotton mills
that under the new child labor law there
is no summer exemption clause for
employing children under IL years of
age as there was under the old statue.
The former law permitted a child who
had attended school four months prev
ious or who was an orphan or who had
a widowed mother or a father who was
wholly disabled to be employed in the
mills during June, July and August.
Some of the superintendent think that
the old exemption still exists and are
writing to the commissioner for permit
blanks.

the time of planting and use 200
pounds as a side application. This
formula should be we'll adapted for
Whatley's Prolific corn on land of the
character mentioned in your letter. We
think you have spaced your crop about
right.
The formula you propose to use on
cotton is a good one. and 100 pounds
of nitrate of soda as a top dressing
should supply the crop fairly we'll with
the plant food required to secure a
good yield. OF course, you know the
yield depends very much on seasonal
conditions.
BY all means plant peanuts. They
will furnish an excellent grazing crop
for your hogs in the fall, and you can
finish them off advantageously by
feeding for one or two weeks on corn.
Chufas and soy beans are also good
for hogs. Following the oats with
German millet is all right, though we
would prefer to use peas and a little
sorghum for hay, as the millet ma
lures before the peas, whereas, the
sorghum and peas may be cut together
with advantage.
SULPHATE OF AMMONIA.
A. p A, Bowman, Ga, writes: Will
sulphate Of ammonia answer for top
dressing mixed with nitrate of soda,
and also what per cent of nitrogen
does sulphate of ammonia carry?
Sulphate of ammonia will answer
very we'll for top dressings, but is like
.ly to give its best results in those soils
which contain a considerable quantity
of lime. 1t is claimed by many that
the various plants cultivated on the
farm can take up nitrogen in the form
of ammonia as rapidly as in the nitrate
form. The nitrogen in sulphate OF
ammounia is quickly converted into
ammonia but whether it be true that
it be taken up directly into this form
or not, it is shortly transformed into
nitrate, or the same condition as the
nitrogen in nitrate of soda. As you
no doubt know, the nitrogen in nj
trate of soda is almost Immediately
available to plants, for as soon as it
comes in contact with sufficient mois-
ture in the soil to dissolve it the nj
uogen is there to serve the needs of
the plant. If you have used nitrate
of soda as a top dressing, you have
no doubt noticed a quick response
which plants make. to it's application
In a rather dry season nitrate of soda
would probably be better used for top
dressing than sulphate of ammonia. In
a wet season the chances are that sui
plate of ammonia will give you as
good or possibly better results since
it is not so likely to he leached out
of the soil as the nitrate. If we were
using these materials for top dress
ing, we would be disposed to apply the
sulphate of ammonia first and the nj
trate of soda two weeks later. Two
light applications of these materials
will be better than a larger applica-
ton of one or both together.
