The weekly Iberian. (New Iberia, La.) 1894-1946, 1920-08-14

With such feeders as the Jefferson
Highway and the PershiDg Way,
the Dixie Highway and the New
Orleans to st. Louis highway
projected along the east bank of
the Mississippi river, the future of
the Spanish Trail ~ not iifiicnlt
to figure, once it ls ready for
regular traffic. Fortunately, New
Iberia Is located on this great
highway and is bound to profit
thereby especially if we are far
sighted enough to provide accom-.
modatiOns for the cross. country
travellers, such as a camping
grounds, and some interesting
side trips. including Avery lsland,
Jefferson Island, shellfoad 10 the
Bay and others that will have a
strong appeal to those passing
through.
Before long these tourists will
be passing through here BY hnn
dreds. Now ia the time to start
getting ready for them # we want
to "cash iu" on the proposition.

The value of publicity of this
sort may not appear on the surface,
but when the Old Spanish Trail

for tourist travel people from the
West, North and East are going
to mark an X opposite the name
of New Iberia and make this a

is PLANTING TIME
FOR IRISH SPUDS
State Experiment College Believes ir
Fall Crop.

Not later than September 1 plant a
fall crop of Irish potatoes. says Prof.
w. L. Frost OF the Florida Expsri-
mental college For seed use small
whole potatoes OF the spring crop. 1t
is better to sprout them by exposing
to light and air, which can be done by
placing them on moist ground in a
shaded place for two weeks or more
before planting. Plant only those that
show sprouts putting out. because all
potatoes will not terminate readily.
This accounts for most poor stands of
Irish potatoes.
The soil should be moist, well sup
piled with humus, broken deeply and
fertilized literally with a fertilizer
containing about percent ammonia.
6 percent phosphoric acid and per-
cent potash.
The potatoes should be dropped fur
Their apart and planted deeper than
spring potatoes, as they require much
moisture and October and November
are often dry months.
Do not expect as large a yield as
in spring. but so bushels per acre may
reasonably be expected. This will help
materially in reducing the high cost
of living when used at home and the
surplus win find ready sale in the To-
cal market.
