able depth from six up to eight or
ten inches.
On some of our heavy clay lands,
typical of those predominating in the
Piedmont section, subsoil plows can
be used to advantage. There are
several standard makes on the mar.
ket. In this state we need an extra
heavy, stout subsoil plow because of
the tenacious character of our sub
soil
On many Of our farms the disk
pillow can be used to great advantage.
1t enables the effective burying of
trash. It is a desirable implement
to use in connection with the turn
ing under of cotton stalks after the
lint has been picked out. The best
way of destroying millions of Vice.
wills in the fall is to pillow the stalks
under to a good depth as soon as
this can be accomplished. The disk
plow is a very effective implement
for this purpose.
Where there is plenty Of work
stock available gang plows may be
used to advantage. These may, be
of the ordinary mold-board type or
the disk type. We prefer the latter
for the purpose we have in mind.
Either Of these types Of plow may
be used where tractor is available.
The size and number Of the plows
or disks will be determined by the
character of the tractor employed.
Tractors can be used to advantage
in the southern part of the state,
where the land is comparatively level
and where very large fields can be
handled. The tractor is Of advan-
tage for use in the northern part
of the state, but probably not quite
so well suited to many of our hill.

The remaining SO in 100 will all be
larger than either A or B and will
range in sizes between the size of
parents and the maximum size of
offspring illustrated. AS for the sec
ond and later generations derived
from c., since the A and 3 of subse-
quent fertilizations are more closely
related than were the original A and
B, the percentage of maximum re-
suits runs up as high as 40, as |
found in by Petunia crossings. This
will happen only in case of close re-
latlonshIp between A and 3.

result when the ovule parent B is

Fertilizing Cotton Under Boil
Weevil Conditions

WeeVl Conditions
j. S. c., Rosslyn, Va, writes:
Please tell me what modification
in the use of fertilizer seems
advisable under boil weevil con-
dftions. / understand that side
applications are being discon-
tinued as tending to make ma
turity late. Also that some grow
ers are putting on nitrate of
soda at planting time. Your ad-
vice in this matter will be APP
preciated.
No doubt we will find out very
much about the use of fertilizers
under boil weevil conditions which
is not in tangible form at this time.
Our experience to date indicates,
however, that probably such nitro
gen as is used should be applied at
the time the cotton is planted. In
the case of organic nitrogen, such
as cotton seed meal, it is probably
best to put this material in the soil
two weeks before the cotton is plant
ed. We have had very excellent re-
suits from putting the fertilizer well
down into the soil, mixing it thor
oughly with as large a proportion
of the subsoi1 as possible with a wing
sweep and then bedding thereon for
cotton. It is not desirable to put
the fertilizer just beneath the drill
row, because the more thoroughly 1t
is spread through the lower areas OF
the soil the greater the spread OF
the plants roots, and the more rapid
and uniform the growth of the crop.
We like to put the fertilizer down in
the soil to depth, say of 8 to IL
inches.
There is more need for the use
of heterogeneous fertilizers on our san
der soils than on our heavier clay
soils. In the coastal plain area we
believe about 3-5 to A per cent Of nj
trogen is about the right amount
to use. In the Piedmont section 3
per cent is probably sufficient. Our
experience indicates that at least
800 pounds of fertilizer should be
used per acre. When more than
600 pounds is used it sometimes does
not prove to be profitable unless
the soil is handled very carefully
and is above the average in fertil-
ity.
We have discontinued the use of
side applications since the advent
of the boil weeyil. That would be
OF no less importance, relatively
speaking, in the Piedmont section
than in the coastal plain area. In
any event, if they are used at all
on the Triton, Norfolk and Ports.
mouth series the application should
be made very early, I should say
soon after the cotton has been chop
ped to stand, and in no event aft
er the first squares show.
