several times its cost in cleai
profit, then you will need no
argument as to what to dc
about making this application.
Our advice is to apply some
good fertilizer literally and
just as early as possible. Don't
wait too long to apply it if you
expect the best results, espec-
ially on cotton,
Now remember, our 4-lo-2
and onr 4-7-2 are in a class to
themselves when it comes to
side dressing.
We Recommend them to
you with Our old reliable 94-4
goods and know if you will
use them literally they will
pay you a profit of several
times their cost, to say nothing
of making a crop you will be
proud OF and build up, Instead
of exhaust your land, an item
in itself worth more TO you
nh n the cost Of the goods.
From every stondpoint it will
pay you to side-dress literally
and if you do you can't find
anything to use in the class
with our goods.

SIDE-DRESS AS EARLY ASPOSSIBLE

this fish business Cleaning fish

ributor is time well spen bee.
ause it gaurauteesfish in your
fertilizer, and that mighty
nearly guarantees a good crop
Apply this side-dressng early
and often. One of the best if
not the best farmers in the
state fertilizers his crop every
time he cultivates il. In no 6
he made 864 pounds of lint
cotton to the acre. We don't
know what he made last year.
Any ginner who mas ever kept
alb on it will tsll you that 1900
pounds of seed cotton that has
been side-drrssed will turn out
as heavy a bale Of cotton at
1900 pounds of seed cotton
that has not been side.dressed
We were told that last Fall by
a ginner and we took up the
mattea with other g!nncrs and
every man of them who inves-
tigated it agreed 10 it. The
side-dressing develops the lint
and makes more of it. This
excess of lent on the seed will
more than pay for fertilizer.
This pronisrs to be a good
year to make all the cottou,
cotton seed, forage ond every
other crop possible, as indlca.
tions are now that all these will
be in demane at good prices,
for it looks now as if there
isn't goelng to ce any bumper
crops of any kind this year,
and we mutually expect good
prices and you all know how
fast crop counts up when
you get good prices.
This seems to be the time
of all times to side dress with
an open hand and make every
pound Of Drop possible, when
all products will be needed a,
prices that will mean money tc
the producers.
Think this over. If you
don't think heavy side-dress
ing pays, why of course we
wouldn't use any, In TACT, if
did't think fertilizer paid,
wouldn't use any at all. Blu

These are specials for side

great pains to get them up so
as 10 give the best possible

charged with nitrate of soda,
to be available as food for the
young plant as quickly as pos
sible. Then we use with this
nitrate of soda a combination
of high grade fish and blood to
come in as the nitrate of soda
gives out, to back up the work
started BY the nitrate o soda,

COMPLAINT MADE AGAINST
 PRESENT SMALL PEACH BASKET

Atlanta, March Especial. )--The small been marketed ever since the inception of the industry has been condemned by the commissioner of weights and measures of the city of New York on the grounds of short capacity. This was reported to the Georgia Fruit Exchange in the following telegram:
 Commissioner weights and measures says Georgia four quart peach baskets are short and every one will be condemned. Reported 20O0O.O000 been stuffed your state. Wire quick what growers will do"
 This telegram was addressed to Man ager II. D. Marks of the exchange, and in his absence from the city President w. F. Hunter of the exchange made the fol- lowing reply:
 Georgia peach growers will obey the law. In absence of full information we are. however, unable to see grounds upon which Georgia four quart peach basket (which we understand to mean one of the six cups which are enclosed in the Georgia carrie9 are short. The cubic contents of this receptacle is 1.B gallons, or more than four quarts, if packed only even with the top In practice this receptacle is packed from one-half inch to three fourths inch above the top. Peaches packed in thls receptacle as shipped, therefore, would fill a receptacle holding .22 gallons or nearly five quarts. Kindly mail today full text Of commissioners ruling" ssNI
 Full understanding of this decision of the commissioner of feights and meas ures,' said Mr. Hunter, If of course m- possible on this meagre information, but If it Is true that the receptacle the Geor- gia growers have been using is con- demnable, VI situation Is a serious one.
 From tH very inception of the busi- ness in this state this form of carrier has been used Thousands of these crates, purchased at about l4 cents each, are already in the hands of the growers, left over from previous years. Orders for many thousands more have already been placed for this years crop, and. as the crate factories have been rushing their manufacturing for the last three months, large quantities are already in the hands of the growers
 'If 1t should be necessary 10 change the specificati tions of the Georgia shipping carrier, another complication would aSle, as result of the floods of about a week ago. The crate makers, last week, ad vanced their price 1 cent per carrier, the reason given being that the floods had so scattered their sawed timber that 1t was with the greatest difficulty that logs were gotten to the mill
