Inquiry-"How would you fertiii5e
to beat the boil weevl to the cotton!
In growing cotton under boil weevli
conditions, several factors must De
given consideration. The land should
be well drained and well supplied with
vegetable matter. Good seed OF va.
riety adapted to the locality should
be chosen, and, Of course, a variety
that will mature its fruit quickly ana
resist wilt should be planted. Fer
tilize literally, and properly cultivate.
On the heavier soils. such as the red
clays and clay loans, the use OF q Ter
tilizer carrying 10 per cent to IL per
cent phosphoric acid, 8 to per cent
nitrogen and q small per cent OF pot
ash, if it can be had, should be USED.
Apply at the rate of ESQ to 400 pounds
per acre. On lighter soils in winch
nitrogen, phosphorus and potash are
all usually deficient, fertilizer carry
ing all three elements is desirable.
Use 10 to IL per cent phosphorlc acld,

Recently a Southern fertilizer con-
Germ obtained a large order for acid
phosphate from Holland at $55 per ton.
Contrast this $500 per ton with $4,000
per ton paid by the Southern farmer.
II the Dutch farmer can afford to
pay $55 per ton for acid phosphate
and make it pay. how much more can
a Southern farmer obtain when he
can buy about three times as much
phosphate with the same money?
Dutch farmers are shrewd and thrift
ty. They have developed agriculture
to a very high state of efficiency; and
they know quite we'll what can be
done with acid phosphate at $55 per
ton. Their land is not poor. TO the
contrary it is highly developed and
fertile. Every rod that can possibly
be used for agriculture is cultivated
like a garden. They have found that
no matter how rich their soil, fertiliz'
ing it pays. Out of their experience
they find that it pays them now to
invest as much as $55 per ton in acid
phosphate.

II the Southern farmer had to pay

a disadvantage he would face! Since
he only pays about one-third this price,
how fortunately situated he Is! Ma
ture has placed here in the South
great deposits of rock phosphate
which, when treated with sulphuric
acid, becomes acid phosphate, an ingre-
dent of fertilizer.
Not only is the Southern farmer IA
vored by reason Of the natural de-

AS the result of survey made by

found that seed wheat from the north

per cent of termination. The same sur

was feared it would be from reports
circulated widely last fall.
Because of the alarming reports sent
out last fall, Mr.. Oswald appealed to
the high school instructors Of the state
and others interested in the subject
for samples from every part of the
state. Up to January !, 1,400 were
received from 70 counties. Careful
tests of these showed that wheat
grown in in the counties north Of
line extending from the southern Dor
der of Polk county to the southern Dor
der of Pine county save an average
termination Of SO per cent, while
wheat grown in counties from a belt
across the state just south of this
gave an average gemination of only
80 per cent. Still farther south the
termination was even lower.
The supply OF seed wheat while not
large, is not stratingly small. While
