Side Applications to Cotton.
AT the time the cotton plant Is In
full bloom ample plant food must be
available or else a large percentage
Of the squares will shed. While there
are other factors that cause shedding,
for example, lack of proper amount
of moisture; still, it has been proven
that even with the most favorable
moisture conditions, lack Of plant
food is the potent cause OF this
trouble.
Under boil weevil conditions, the
fertilizer used in side applications
should contain a high percentage OF
phosphoric acid and rather low per-
centsge of nitrogen. This fertilizer
has the effect of forcing the young
bolls to quick growth and early ma
turity.
Side Applications to Corn.
While it usually pays to make q
larger side application of fertilizer for
cotton than for corn, STILL many Of
the best farmers in the Southeast
advocate liberal side applications for
corn.
mrch shorter than that Of cotton; con.
seouently, there must be present In
the soil large supplies of available
rlant food at the critical period e lts

waist high to tasselling time.
