Fertilizers For Your Garden

Manure is scarce in and around cities,
Commercial fertilizers must be depend.
ed upon primarily for adding fertility
to garden soils. 1t pays to use the best
grade of commercial fertilizers, When
the home gardener buys fertilizers he
pays for nitrogen, phosphoric acid and
potash, and If he can secure the re-
quired amount OF these elements in a
small quantity of material. so much
the better, as he will avoid the hand
ling of greater weight upon which
freight and other costs have been paid.
A fertilizer containing from 4 to 6 per
cent Of nitrogen. 5 to 10 per cent avail
able phosphoric acid, and 3 or cent
potash Ia generally Recommended for
use ON home gardens, by specialists.
Ore pound to 30 feet Of row Is equiv
sleat to an application Of 500 pounds
to the acre. One pouaa to Is feet Of
70" u equivalent 70 an application OF
1000 pounds to the acre, and an appli-
cation of poupd to s feet of row is
practically equivalent to 1000 pounds of
fertilizer to the acre.
Commercial fertilizers are high at
present and no more than Is absolutely
necessary should be used. Care must
also be taken In their application, ss
there rs constant danger of burning the
roots Of the plants. especially where
the fertilizers are applied directly In
the rows. The best results are gen.
erslly secured where the fertilizers are
applied and rsked in few days before
sowing the seeds or setting the plants.
In this way they become more or less
mixed with the soil and there will be
little danger Of doing the plants an
injury.

Feeding and Management Of Hogs
N April

tennessee is now one Of the larges
hog producing states Of the soath. Il
fact IT ranks along with some of tn
olg cornbelt states. The livestocl
specialist of the Division Of Extension
| University Of Tennessee, has outlined
plan for the management and feeding
OF hogs for each month in the year anc
for April some good pointers are Civ.
en-. The first is the question of forage
crops. For March it was suggested
tnat crimson, red or white clover, rye,
barley. blue grass or orchard grass
could be pastured. In April this can
be continued with the addition of alfal-
ia which was sown previous to Aug
ust OF last year. Ten to fifteen hogs
per acre may be grazed on alfalfa for
seven months. Eight to twelve head
per acre may be allowed to run on red
clover pasture.
Ihe next question is feeding. Fat
tening hogs should be finished for mar
ket this month. Protein feeds are not
so essential during the last month of
the feeding period, so it may be re.
duced. Feed enough to keep the hogs
gaining about one.half pound a. dag.
They should have plenty of fresh water
and minerals at all times.
Young pigs should be fed we'll as it
never pays to stunt them. In manage
ment OF the herd attention should be
given to the fact that all spring pigs
should be castrsted at the age Of four
TO six weeks. Brood sows should be
fed so as to gain a little while sucking
the litter. To kill worms give: five
grains OF cslomeI, five grains Of san
tonin to each pig weighing 80 to rs
pounds this should be given in slop or
bran mash after starving pig "a hours.
A physic should be given after "a hours.
Careful attention should be given
sows and gilt bred to farrow in March.
Havethem tame and gentle so that
assistance can be easily given atfarrow-
ing time.
The best time to market late sum-
mer and fall pigs 10 from March is to |
April 20. April 20 to June is is q fair
" go'd time to market. The heavy |
hogs on the market is about over, and
the market 10 due TO advance this
month according to market specialists. |
Many farmers are finding that it is =
great saving to ship comparatively to
large markets.

How Diphtheria is Contracted

One often hears the expression, my
child caught severe cold which devel,
oped into diphtheria. (" when the truth
was that the cold had simply left the
little one particularly susceptible to the
wandering diphtheria germ. If your
child has q cold when dipn iberia 10 pre-
vslent you should take him out Of school
and keep him Of the street until fully
recovered. as there is hundred times
more danger Of bis taking diphtheris

enres the cold and lessons the danger
OF diphtheris or any other germ disease

Garden Notes

The cold of the first Of this week wa

low a. 28 Sunday night with plenty OF
lee every where. Due to the late plant
ing Of gardens there were few tender
vegetables up and the damage done was
not heavy. We missed the loss of to.
nato plants by the nsrrowest, as we
expected to get them transplanted last
week, but did not. The plants are
ready and will 20 into the garden with
the first warm weather.
The shucks on the young peaches are
just about ready to drop off and it is
time for spraying them with Bordesu
mixture and arsenate of lead to kill the
worm and prevent the brown rot which
destroys so many peaches in this coun.
try about the time they begin to ripen.
Plenty of time yet to bed sweet DO.

to supply ones self with plants that
will live and make potatoes.
Many people in this section who or.

looking for their orders to be filed.
The growers in Georgia. Florida or Al
ALBANIA has the moneysand the gardener
who ordered has nothing and no pros
poets of getting plants. These grow.
ers are an untrustworthy bunch and
that Is why we quit handling their

Several are asking about the time
for setting the first sweet potatoes.
1t is entirely too early vet for such
work. We would not transplant one

that month is better than the frat half
OF the month. There is ample time
yet to bed for potatoes and grow the
