FERTILIZER NEEDSI
4 CLOSE STUDY OIL
THESE FOR Tenn. SOIL

II you have faith in the soil on your
farm aud wish TO develop 1t to the
greatest extent possible the first job Is
to improve the soil. To improve 1t q
study must he made OF 1t In order TO
supply it with its OWN special needs In
the cheapest way. 1t is q big study
which begins with the fertilizer ques-
ton. Some OF us are buying what We
do 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, c~lovers,
beans and peas, and manure. We
must build on this foundation. Phos-
plate is the first Of these TO get buy
1t In the form Of 10 per cent acid phos-
phate which contains In every 100
pounds Of fertilizer 1G pounds of avail
able phospleric acid. Use 200 to 300
pounds per acre on general crops such
as corn, sorghum, wheat, peas, c~l0vers,
etc. use more on special crops like
potatoes, tomatoes, etc.
Dent let the fertilizer men confuse
you; they want to sell fertilizers; you
want TO buy available plant food, Here
is the way TO do 1t wisely: Keep you
ears closed and your eyes open with q
pencil in your hand and your mind ON
your soil needs. Don't lose your head,
you may lose your money with II.
The law requires that The available
plant food be clearly marked on The
tag. Use that as a basis fer buying
and buy that form which gives you q
pound OF available plant food at the
cheapest price per pound. II is only
the available part that crops can use
because Iris only That part which will
dissolve in soil water. DO you buy u
ham for the meat or the bone? You
can't eat hone, neither can crops eat

IRISH POTATO IS
p 4 SPLENDID CROP

The Irish potato is q splendid crop
for The hoy who lives on the oun
rain, The open sandy soil OF such sec
liens, when improved by growing
clover and other legume crops, ID the
best potato soil In Tennessee. Psta-
toes like The mountain climate, and
some day The Cumberland Plateau Is
going to be known thru0ut the land
for its big yields and fine quality Of
potatoes. This time will come when
cur boys learn TO improve the soil by
the use Of phosphate, lime, legumes
and livestock. SO that 1t is rich enough
to grow big crops.
In 1918 Tennessee grew 100000
bushels Of Irish potatoes valued on
the farm December I at $~J,775,0O0.
Many mountain counties In East
Tennessee are adapted TO growing late
crops Of Irish potatoes.
Tennessee produces $3.50 600 BUSH

 Captain Winston was English enough to be- rather helpless in the face of so much emotion:
 "Oh, by love. old chap" he cried in inarticulate fashion.

 That sweetness didn't fail her when she bade Betty good night Never had I seen Betty more distant than she was to Evvy and Carlotta Sturges, but, both she and Terry were cordial to Pat Dalton. The man had undoubt- ed charm And oddly enough I found myself plying him in spite of his splendid good looks, high spirits and his air of having at least money enough to patronize the best of taiiors and belong to the most exclusive club in town-for, on saying geod-by to Captain Winston, he offered to send him a fortnight's card to the Pa troons!

 Betty as a great swell. And Betty

 With the proud air of success full hostess, Evelyn seated us at a table set for eight and insisted that

 his attentions impartially between Betty and me and seemed hardly
 aware of Evvy.
