FERTILIZER TESTS


The fertilizer test on potatoes at ].
Aquiia Jones' farm, which was con
Quoted during the past year, may be
summarized as follows:
There seems to be steady increase
In the average yield OF marketable DO
tatoes as the amounts of the 4-8-O-ferti
iizer increased up to applications OF
1000 pounds per acre. More than 2OOO
pounds per acre gave no increase In
yield over this amount. At the pres
snt price of fertilizer and potatoes an
application of 1900 pounds OF 4-S-3 ferti-
iizer on these test plots appeared to be
economical. AT the present prices an
application of more than 1900 pounds
Of 48-3 fertilizer did not produce
enough more salable potatoes to pay
for the increased cost.
In testing out sources Of ammonia,
nitrate OF soda alone gave as good a
yield as did any source of ammonia or
combination Of sources. Sulphate OF
ammonia alone gave only two-thirds
she average yield secured from nitrate
alone. On both the sulphate of ammon-
Ia plots more stem end rot was present
than on any of the other plots in the
whole test. Fish or tankage as
source OF ammonia did not give as
good results as nitrate of soda alone.
When nitrate of soda was. substituted
for one-half the amount of sulphate.
tankage or fish, in every case a SUBJ
stantial increase was secured.
Different amounts of potash were
compared to determine which would
produce the most economical Yields.
Three per cent of potash gave large
increase over no potash, while neither
6SS nor 1917 gave increase enough TO
warrant the extra expense.
On Avery Benefits farm, near
Mount Holly, tests of different amounts
OF ammonia and phosphoric acid were
conducted on equal-sized plots of to-
matoes. A rye cover crop was plowed
under and Greater Baltimore Toma-
toes were set on June 7th, Ak 3K
feet. Each of the following formulas
was applied at the rate of 800 pounds
per acre, $50, 5-12-0 and 7-S-O. Rec (
ords were also kept on another equal
sized plot which received no fertilizer.
The plot receiving no fertilizer yielded
81 baskets, the plot receiving the sol
mixture yielding 88H baskets, the
plot receiving 5-12-0 mixture As baskets,
and the plot receiving 7-S fertilizer
yielding 46a baskets. In comparing
the different amounts OF phosphoric
acid the larger amount gave consid
erable increase in yield and matured
earlier. In comparing the ammonia
applications, the larger amount OF
ammonia gave greater increase in
! ield; the fruit was larger and finer;
and more was left on the vines when

killed by the frost.
The results Of the one years test can
not be taken as conclusive. We hope
to conduct similar test next year on
several farms.

| DAIRY
Considering their feeding value, the
following feeds are economical. HON
my, is equal in feeding value to corr
meal, and is much cheaper. Cotton
seed meal is the most economical
source of protein. Linseed meal isalsC
reasonable considering its feeding
value. Bran, brewers grains, anc
ground oats are good feeds and fairly
reasonable. A fairly good grain ration
to be used in conjunction with silagt
and good mixed or alfalfa hay is q
mixture of 400 pounds hominy, 10(
pounds bran, 200 pounds cottonseed
meal and 100 pounds oil meal. This
should be fed at the rate of pound oI
meal for each az pounds of milk pro

japanese Dinners.


In the matter of eating 1t Is agreed
that the japanese cuisine is not Of the
richest in nutritiye quality. 1t Is not
inexpensive; japanese dinners are elab-
crate In preparation. artistic In pre-
sentation, but for satisfying the inner
man are far inferior to European or
even Chinese cooking. The chief char
acteristic Of purely japanese dinner
is to please the eye, not the palate or
stomach. 1t is national joke that one
must eat meal before going to or
after returning from a japanese din
ner.
Oh, how much labor and expense are
lavished on a gochiso ENTERTAINMENT
to make it nice to look att This is all
sheer waste and luxury and is to be
condemned. Providence has kindly put
