whether it be a question of race

Mrs. Murray says the various an

Blood Hounds for Rapides Parish.

Blood Hounds for Rapides Parish.
Alexandria, May II. -Rapides
will in the not remote future have
a pair of blood hounds, to be u.s.
ed by the sheriff in tracking
criminals. This has been made
possible by the action of the po-
lice jury at its session Tuesday
afternoon, when it passed a res
olution making an appropriation
of a sufficient amount to purchase
the hounds and also for their
maintenance.
This action of the jury was the
result of an appeal made to that
body by Sheriff David. who went
before them and made an ad-
dress, in which he showed the
necessity and Importance of the
parish owning pair of blood
hounds.
The jury had been debating
practically the entire afternoon
the question of cattle dipping
and the reconstruction of dip
ping watts, and was very fatigued
with the days work, but when
the sheriff appeared before them
and made an appeal for an ap.
preparation was made without a
dissenting vote.
Sheriff David states that he
does not know yet where he will
purchase the hounds, but that he
wanted to get the appropriation
first, and then the matter of get
ting the dogs will be easy. He
says he is going to purchase the
finest pair of blood hounds that
money can buy. He believes
that they will not only facilitate
very greatly the work of himself
and deputies in running down
criminals, but that when it is
known that the parish owns
blood hounds they will act as a
deterrent to persons in the com
mission of crime.

SIDE APPLICATION
OF FERTILIZERS
FERTILIZERS ARE CHEAP
AGAIN.
Practice of Side Application VIII
Be Extensively Followed
This Year.

Atlanta, Ca, April.-Reports receiv.
ed from fertilizer companies indicate
that the Southern farmer fell a good
deal short of using as much fertilizers
at planting time this year as usual. Sew.
eral reasons are assigned. One is that
the farmers waited for the price OF
fertilizers to fall with the expectation
of using them in greater quantities
than the usual amount as side applica-
tons to the growing COPS.
1t seems that the practice Of side ap
plication of fertilizers is quite common.
ly followed by successful Southern
farmers. In fact, the Williamson eth.
cd Of growing corn that is popular in
the coastal plains region Of the South,
provides that no fertilizer be applied
except as side applications to the corn
crop.
On the question of side applications
Of fertilizers, J. N. Harper, director Of
the Soil Improvement Committee and
recognized authority on agricultural
methods of the South, says, that there
are more than the usual advantages
this year in favor of side applications.
The reason is apparently favorable to
giving good response to fertilizers.
A word Of caution is, however, sound
ed by Mr.. Harper. He says that the
side applications should be made early.
Late applications to cotton will only
prolong the growth of the plant and
favor the boil weevil. He says that
IL will be better to make both the side
applications OF complete fertilizers ana
the nitrogen top dressing within six
weeks after planting, where the boil
weevil Is present.
For corn, he states that side applfca-
lions are quite generally made too late
to get the best results. On clay loan
or heavy soils he advises side appli.
cation and nitrogen dressing when the
corn is from knee to waist high. For
sandy or light soils, he says that side
applications can be made later. that is.
when the corn is waist to shoulder
high, but before 1t begins to bunch to
tassel.
Mr.. Harper says that care must DC
taken to use only readily available
forms Of fertilizer so that the growing
plants can utilize them in promoting
rapid growth and development Of fruit
The fertilizer should contain phos'
phoric acid in the form OF acid phos'
plate. This Is the main element for
Fastening maturity. The fertilizer
should also contain nitrogen and potash
b the readily available form. Nitrogen
promotes the growth Of the stalk and
leaves and potash strengthens the plant
and helps fill out the fruit.
A top dressing of sulfate Of ammonia
or nitrate of soda Is quite commonly
made, and, according to Mr.. Harper, II
| should follow closely after the second
application of fertilizer, and within the
periods Of cotton and corn growth
which he mentions above.

AVOID MISTAKES IN
POISONING BOIL WEEvIu
WeeviIs Can Be Poisoned With
Profit.

The United States Department OF
Agriculture, through its boil weevil
experts, Profs. B. r. Coad and T. P.
Cassidy, have issued a statement, q
part of which Is entitled Where It
VIII Pay You to Poison This part
is as follows:
It will pay to poison
II the weevils are really injuring
your crop seriously, and =
II your land is sufficiently fertile
to yield at least one-half bale per acre
with weevil injury eliminated, and
II your farming organization is such
that you feel assured that the poison
applications will be made at the right
time and in the right manner, and
II you are willing to spend the full
amount necessary to provide an ade-
quate supply Of busting machinery and
poison.
The general gains from weevil poi.
soning under average, fairly favorable
conditions seem to be from 200 to 400
pounds of seed cotton per acre, but,
owing to variations in degree of wee.
vii injury 1t is not safe to expect much
more than the lower figure.
Consequently. you should not poi.
son IL the cost of the calcium arse
nate, the cost Of labor to apply 1t,
and the depreciation on the busting
machines will total more per acre
than the current value of 100 pounds
of seed cotton.
Hand guns should be figured as de-
preciating 100 per cent in season and
the larger machines about rs per cent.
Do It Right Or Not At All
Many valuable lessons have been
gained from the recent expension of
commercial weevil poisoning. 1t has
again been shown that the boil wee
vii can be poisoned with profit II con-
ditions are favorable and II proper
methods are used, but 1t has been en-
phasized anew that unfavorable condi-
lions and improper methods can lead
only to failure. A survey Of the poi.
soning by farmers in 1920 shows that
an unfortunately large proportion were
not properly informed as to the condi.
lions under which they should poison
and the methods they should pursue.
Al a result there's were many unneces'
oary failures. L.
