APPLYING Fertilizers TO POTATOES
Results Obtained at Aroostook Farm

used. To one set Of plots all the fer
tilizer was applied in the planter. TO
another set 1000 pounds per acre was
applied in the planter and 500 pounds
at the first cultivation. To third set
1000 pounds was applied broadcast be-
fore planting and 500 pounds at the
first cultivation, and to the fourth set
the full 1900 pounds Aas applied
broadcast before planting.
The results obtained in 1914 and
1915 are reported in detail in Bulletin
246. The yields per acre obtained in
1916 are as follows:
1900 pounds in planter IA bbls. 1895 bus.)
1000 pounds in planter; 500 lbs: at . sui iva
1000 mounds broadcast: 500 lbs. at culttva-
ton 100 bbls C35S bus.)
1900 pounds broadcast 131 bbls. $3.50 bus.)
These results indicate that the best
yields are obtained when all or a large
part of the fertilizer is applied in the
planter. The results this year are
much more marked than in the two
preceding years. In fact the results of
the first two years indicated that there
was little to choose between the meth
DDS so far as yield was concerned.
The average yield for the three years
1914-1916 during which this expert
ment has been carried on are as fol-
lows:
1900 lbs. in planter 12S bbls
1000 lbs. in planter; 800 at cultiva-
ton 126 bbls
tivation 121 bbls
1850 lbs. broadcast liz Dds.
From these results it seems quite
clear that fully as good if not better
yields are obtained by applying all of
the fertilizer in the planter. AS this
method is much cheaper and more
convenient than any of the others it
is the one to be recommended. 1t
seems that at least up to 1900 pounds
per acre nothing is to be gained either
by broadcasting fertilizer before plant
ing or by applying a part at the first
cultivation.

ION TO LEXINGTON"
THE SLOGAN OF THE
COLLEGE men, |.P.A.

Chicago. Nov. 2S.-(specia)- Nearly
a thousand college students took part
In the six state wide campaigns which
swept a majority Of the American
commonwealths into the prohibition
column on November Z. and in other
prohibition campaigns throughout the
country, according to a statement just
issued at the national headquarters of
the Intercollegiate Prohibition Asso-
citation in this city. Over 500 were en-
gagged in the Michigan campaign alone,
where the prohibitionists piled up ma
jorities Of 10000 to $4,000 on the two
amendments submitted for a popular
vote.
With the shouts of victory still In
the air and the prospect Of further
winning campaigns in the immediate
future, the national college association,
together with its state and local or
! CARNATIONS in every section of the
j country, is making elaborate prepar-
atoms for its biennial. nation wide
student mobilization, to be held this
year in Lexington, KY, with a view to
preparing the great body Of American
college students for the part they are
to play in the final victorious drive
against the remaining intrenchments
of John Garleycorn.
Speakers Of national and interna-
tional reputation. including some Of the
foremost scientific, educational, socio-
logical. political and religious leaders
of the day. have been secured for the
four-day concentration camp. Chief
among these will be William Jennings
pY~Nyo yI1 civ al L~,
nounced his intention of henceforth
devoting his chief energies to the
cause of national prohibition.
President Guy Potter Benton Of the
University of Vermont has tentatively
accepted an invitation to be one Of the
convention speakers. Other distin-
guished names on the program include
United States Senator William S. Ken
yon Of Iowa, Charles Stelzle, noted So
Geological and labor expert; President
Edwin Erie Sparks of Pennsylvania
State College; Dr. Ira Landrith, ma
tional Christian Endeavor and Y. NJ. c.
A. leader and recent Prohibition can
didate for Vice President; DR.. Winfield
Scott Hall Of Northwestern University
Illinois; DR.. Carolyn E. Geisel of Bat
tie Creek Sanitarium, Michigan;
1onal Christian Endeavor and Y. M. c.
A. leader and editor of The North
American Student: Daniel A. Polling Of
Boston. Associate President of the
United Society of Christian Endeavor
and President of the National Tenn
perance Council; Virgil G.. Hinshaw,
chairman of the Prohibition National
Committee; and Ernest H. CHEERING
ton. of Ohio, editor-i inc chief of the
Anti Saloon League publications.
Among the representative student
leaders at the Lexington convention
none will be more interesting than the
appropriate representative from Dart
! mouth, S. Ralph Walkingstick II, a
Daily Kennebec journal. [microfilm reel] (Augusta, Me.) 1870-1975, 1916-11-29

Orono. Me-, Nov. 2S-(Special)-The
following was made public today by
Charles d. Woods, director Of the
Maine Agricultural experiment station
at the University of Maine:
1t has always been more or less GUS
tomary in growing potatoes in Maine
to apply the fertilizer in the drill or
hill at the time Of planting. This was
largely the practice when farm ma
nures were used in connection with
potato growing and has been followed
with commercial fertilizers. Although
now, when farm manures are used in
connection with potatoes they are
more likely to be applied broadcast
and a smaller amount of fertilizer ap-
piled in the drill. There was little
question in the minds of practical
growers that when 500 to 1000 pounds
of fertilizer were applied per acre that
it was to be best advantage to apply it
in the drill. With the increase up to
1900 to 1000 pounds per acre the ques-
ton has arisen whether it may not be
advisable to apply the fertilizer at
different times. This led the Maine
Agricultural Experiment Station to I'M
dertake a series of trials at Aroostook
Farm.
In 1914 an experiment was started to
extend over period of several years
for the purpose OF testing the method
of applying fertilizer In each year
the fertilizer has ben applied at the
rate of 1900 pounds per acre. The
fertilizer used was high grade carry
ing per cent nitrogen, 8 per cent
available phosphoric acid and 7 per
cent potash. One-third of the nitro
gen was in the form of nitrate of soda
and the remainder high grade organic
The yields are based upon weights and
not upon measure. In 1916 duplicate
plots of approximately acre each
were planted by each method.
-Four different methods have been

full blooded Indian. who will be num-
bered among the New England dele
cation. Walkingstick is an athletic, an
active Y. NJ. c. A. man and one Of
the most popular men on the Dart
mouth campus. He is member of a
college prohibition deputation team
and the secretary Of the New England
Southern Intercollegiate Prohibition
Association.
Another delegate, representing the
modern type of student leaders who
are taking hand in the war on booze,
will be Lewis c. Reimann, star left
tackle Of 1915 on the University of
Michigan football team.
One of the chief features Of interest
at Lexington will be the I. P. A. ma
tional oratorical contest, the culmina-
ton of the most extensive student
series Of the country, in which eight
interstate winners. chosen by elimi-
nation from 400 original entrants, will
compete for the highest national hon
ors in student oratory. The Eastern
Interstate division will be represented
in the contest by Bernard c. Clausen of
Colgate University, New York. winner
of the 1915 eastern competition, and by
DeLoyd F. Wood Of Ohio Wesleyan
University, who captured the 1916 in
terstate at Indianapolis in June.
Although originally organized for the
purpose Of promoting systematic,
scientific study Of the alcoholic drink
problem, the I. p. A. has gradually
extended, it's supplementary lines Of
activity until during the past few years
Its 10000 active and affiliated members
have become a real factor in the sue
cessful political campaigns for state
and national prohibition conducted in
many states. The popular and pro-
phetic slogan, "a Saloonless Nation by
1920" first adopted by the national
Christian Endeavor convention Of 1911,
has been accepted as a divinely or
dained decree and taken up with mill
tant enthusiasm by the young people Of
the country who now regard the de-
struction Of the liquor traffic as the
supreme task, mission and opportunity
of the present generation-their con-
tribution to the progress of civiliza-
ton.
The Lexington convention promises
to be the greatest student gathering Of
civic character ever held. not except
Ing the record breaking p A. conven-
ton Of two years ago at Topeka, Kan,
at which representatives were present
from 1o3 colleges in % different states.
ION to lexington" is the watchword
which will be passed along the line in
300 American colleges during the three
short weeks between now and the
Holiday recess. Lexington, 1915. bids
fair to become as famous as Lexington
1775.

spare or that she is utterly devoid OF
imagination. 1t would be ridiculous to
make the excuse that she cannot af-
ford it, for decorations can be made
that cost almost nothing.
In fact the Thanksgiving decorations
need cost nothing at all. Fruit and even
vegetables make the most attractive OF
centerpieces, and these may be borrow
cd from YOUR own larder and used
without injuring them in the least for
future use. A good idea IS TO secure
some sort Of low wide basket or dish.
If you have punch bowl so much the
better. If you have neither basket nor
bowl. then you can manage with the
dishran. placed in the center of the
table and covered inside and out with
yellow tissue paper.
Inside the dish, pan or basket heap
up the fruit or vegetables. Even tur-
nips and carrots are appropriate if
they are first carefully scrubbed and
rubbed. Apples should be washed and
polished Some kinds Of sweet pota-
toes have quite smooth surface and
when washed and rubbed take on u
reddish hue that is very decorative.
You can't imagine till you have tried
how festive such a decoration looks.
For individual favors select some
knobby potatoes. carrots. turnips or
other rooty vegetables. Provide your
self with burnt matches sharpened at
the burned end, few cloves and some
cranberries. The shapes of these fruits
will suggest various kinds of animals.
A white potato with little cutting
might make a very nice pig, a turnip
a horse or a beat a whale. Sometimes
pieces Of vegetables may be connected
by means Of sharpened matches. With
q few peanuts used as legs and tails of
animals the results can be made truly
fetching.
If your dinner is served after dusk be
sure to have the table lighted by
candles, for this adds immeasurably to
the coziness and the cheer Of the oc-
casion. Yellow candles are the best
though these are not necessary. Now
adays shades are not usually used on
dinner candles, but if you choose YOU
may make an exception on Thanksgiv-
ing and add q note Of color by putting
yellow shades on the candles. These
may be fashioned at home from asbes-
tos and yellow crepe paper.
