TOp-DresSing.

Results obtained at the South Caro-
lima Experiment Station show that a
top-dressing with nitrate of soda
gives good results on cotton( corn and
small grains. The increase is most
marked during a wet year because
this nitrogen is already in an imme-
diately available form, while the rot
ting of the organic sources does not
proceed as rapidly as usual on ac-
count of the excess of moisture in the
soil. The amount to apply per acre
varies with the fertility of the soil
and the previous fertilization, but we
would suggest from fifty pounds per
acre on poor land up, according to the
fertility of the soil.
Early applications are coming into
favor. We recommend that the soda
be applied to corn when it is between
knee and waist high, to cotton just
as the shapes begin to form, and to
small grain in March. Care should
be taken not to sow nitrate of soda
on wet plants, because it is likely to
scald them. 1t is best to apply it just
after rain, when the moisture has
dried off of the leaves of the plants,
then cultivate with a much forming
implement as soon as the ground is
dry enough to plow.
