can use a two-horse planter for this pur-
pose. We would plant about a gallon

you Will not secure a good stand you
can use more, though we have not found
this necessary under our conditions
here. Of course, we would like to have
a stalk of sorghum and kaflr corn about
every six inches, but as matter of
fact, they are often a good deal thicker
than this in spots, and more widely sep
arated in others, due to the difficulty
of obtaining an absolutely uniform
stand Kafir corn is a drier plant than
sorghum and hence combines well with
it in the making of silage We would
use about 800 pounds of the 1913 for
mula under the crop at the time of
planting, and 200 pounds as a side APP

Please advise me what fertilizer to use.
1t will be impossible for you to Sc
cure potash the present year unless you
are able to supply your land with some
of this element in the form of wood
ashes. If you are burning wood you
should save the ashes and protect them
from rain and scatter on your land at
the rate of say 300 to 500 pounds per
acre. preferably the latter amount, and
harrow into the soil. When you get
ready to plant your crop fertilize the
land according TO the character of crop
il has been making. If you have Sc
cured a large enough stalk of corn or
cotton, you need not use quite so much
nitrogen; if the plants have been rather
small, use q little more. Two and
half to three and half per cent of

If you will take 100 pounds of we'll

will have very good compost formula

available at the present time. We would
use this compost at the rate of one ton

sorts of compost formulas suggested for
your consideration. Many have been
called to our attention which are prac

nation suggested is as reliable and de-
rendable as anything you can use.
