FERTILIZER NEEDS;
A CLOSE STUDY OF
THESE FOR Tenn. SOIL

II you have faith in the soil on your
farm and wish to develop II to the
greatest extent possible the first job is
to improve the soil. To improve 1t
study must be made Of il in order to
supply it with its OWE special needs IN
the cheapest way. 1t is big study
which begins with the fertilizer ques-
ton. Some Of us are buying what we
de not need, others are not buying
what they do need, and most OF US are
not buying in the cheapest form.
Soils need phosphate, lime, ciovers.
beans aud peas, and manure. We
must build on this foundation Phos-
phate is the first of these to get; buy
ii in the form Of Is per cent acid phos-
plate which contains In every 100
pounds of fertilizer 16 pounds of avail
able phoSphoric acid. Use 200 to 300
pounds per acre on general crops such
a. corn sorghum, wheat, peas, clovers,
etc. use more on special crops like
potatoes, tomatoes, etc
Don't let the fertilizer men confuse
you; they want to sell fertilizers; you
want to buy available plant food, Here
is the ray TO 40 it wisely Keep yo1r
ears closed and your eyes open with
pencil in your hand and your mind on
your soil needs, Don't lose your head
you may lose your money with 1t,
The law requires that the available
plant food be clearly marked Oh the
tag Use that as basis for buying
and buy that form which gives you
pound Of available plant food at the
cheapest price per pound II is only
the available part that crops can use
because IL is only that part which will
dissolve in soil water. Do you buy 4
ham for the meat or the bone? You
cant eat bone, neither can crops eat
sand and other things that fertilizers
contain Sand does not hurt fertilizer,
but you don't want to pay $1,000 to
$4,000 per ton for common sand.
Don't buy complete fertilizers.
Buy acid phosphate for It's phosphoric
acid, buy lime 10 make clover; sow
clover to make rich manure and to get
nitrogen; II you cannot get lime this
yeSr SOW phosphate under beans and
peas and feed the hay to get manure !;
save the manure for the nitrogen and
potash in 1t. Save the wood ashes,
tea
Now until YOU get started on this
peAn II will pay 10 buy 100 pounds Of
nitrate Of soda and 30 pounds OF mu-
rate Of potash for every acre OF pota-
toes or tomatoes that you grow. Mix
the potash with your phosphate, apply
the nitrate along the rev after the
plants are started

TENNESSEAAS TO AID

pie OF Tennessee will be called upon

American Committee for Jewish Re-

the lives Of 100000 children and $780,

nocent of the wars tragedy
The amount to be raised in Tennes.
see has been set at $780, the ma.
ior portion of this amount TO be- pro.
rated between the four larger cities OF
the state, according to population.
The campaign will be whirlwind af.
fair and Tennesseans who have es.
tablished an unparalleled record for
generous giving In all of the war and
postwar campaigns are expected to
meet their obligation to humanity by
spontaneous response to this most
urgent appeal.
While most of those stricken people
crying for help are Jews, many of
them represent the non-Jewish ele-
ment, and for this reason the cam
paign Is being pitched on a nonsec-
tartan basis, with an opportunity for
everyone to aid in this most humani-
tartan project.
Tennesseans are daily made famil-
lar with the terrible conditions exist
ing in that part of Europe which is
crying for help from America. The
press associations have many Of their
best correspondents assigned to tell
the outside world Of the great need
of the suffering peoples and volumes
have already been written about the
dire suffering and misery slow death
through starvation and disease which
are daily wiping out thousands Of
human lives because help is slow in
coming from the world at large.
Tennesseans are expected to help
rut this campaign over without de.

IRISH POTATO IS

for Its big yields and fine quality OF
potatoes. This time will come when
eur boys learn TO improve the soil by
the use of phosphate, lime, legumes

In 1918 Tennessee grew 3,5OO,OO

Many mountain counties In East
Tennessee are adapted to growing late
crops Of Irish potatoes.
Tennessee produces 100000 busA-

900. She annually consumes 100000,
for which In 1918 She paid S9,960,0OO.

DREADFUL DISEASES

Within the past two years, he says,
great numbers of little orphaned chill

though in spite of the high death-rate
there are still some 10000 fatherless
and motherless little lo!ks During
the past two or three years infant and

to the moral and mental effect of this
life OF constant hunger and disease:
Among the Jewish population |

accusations against them being large
