scattered through every State in the
Union, which have asked the Depart
ment of Commerce in the past two
months for licenses.
According to Chief Radio Super
visor Terrell this constitutes a record
number of would-be broadcasters for
any similar period in radio history,
and has occurred despite the fact
that just a little more than two
months ago the department an
nounced that all available wave
lengths had been distributed. Nearly
all of the inquiries gave self-adver-
tisement or the indirect publicity fea
lures of broadcasting as the reason
for the applications and not more
than one or two of the firms express
ed a desire to take up their radio VEN
ture with the idea of selling time
on the air.
Cites Reason for Increase.
The mere knowledge that the sup
ply of wave lengths was about eX-
hausted probably gave impetus to
the flood of applications. Only small
percentage or the applCallOnS on
file can be filled. Letters explaining
the situation have been mailed to
all of these applicants and most of
them will have to stand by" until
some new ether lanes are opened up.
The limited number of licenses
awarded these days is shown in the
size of the weekly bulletins announc
ing new stations. Not so long ago
these announcements covered two and
three pages. The one issued today,
bearing the names of only two sta
tions, brought the monthly total SO
far to Il.
Newcomers Announced.
The two newcomers this week are
KPRC. a low-wave class B station at
Houston, Tex, and KFVR, a class A
plant. operated under the romantic
title of the Moonlight Ranch Broad
casting Station, in Colorado, near
Denver. KPRC has been assigned the
1868 wave length and will use 500
watts. KFVR has been given 246
meters and licensed to use so watts.
The only important change in the
present lineup of wave lengths dur
ing the past week, it was announced,
was a deal arranged by WHIT. at
Chicago, to use the 400-meter wave
length of WHAS, at Louisville, when
that station is not on the air. When
WHAS is operating WHIT will change
it's wave length to the class A band,

Says Fertilizer Pays

A big north Arkansas bank is send
ing out, through its territory, some
information on fertilizer. As this is
the time of year when seventy-five per
cent of MS are interested, either direct
ly or indirectly, ON the question of fer
tilizer, we take pleasure in passing the
following article on to our readers:
Fertilizers Of the right kind are the
key to success in raising cotton at
profit under weevil conditions. More
than any other one factor, the kind
and amount of fertilizer used, on our
average hill lands, determine whether
we are to make good crop and pro-
fit or a poor crop and loss. So firm
ly do ! believe in fertilizers, that if |
had TO raise cotton without them ON
our poor hill lands | would quit the
job forthwith, for il would be losing
game.
When | speak of the right kind, |
have especial reference to nitrate of
soda and acid phosphate, for these
are the materials that have helped me
most in making good crops of cotton
every year, wet or dry, regardless of
the weevil. Nitrate of soda is especial
ly valuable, and starts the young plants
off into quick, vigorous growth and ear
ly fruitage. With II must also be used
except in lime land and Delta sections.
acid phosphate to properly balance it.
Where there is any tendency to rust
or plant diseases, potash can usually
be profitably used.
If you have never used nitrate and
Pocahontas star herald., 1925-02-26

acid before, l suggest that you begin
with 100 of nitrate and 200 of acid per
acre. l started at this rate eight or
nine years ago, leaving an occasional
row unfertilized, and the results were
simuly wonderful, the fertilized cotton
making two to four times as much as
the unfertilized. In later years, as
experience warranted, l began TO raise
my rate of application, and found that
l got steady and profitable increase
in yield This year, 1925, on a good
part of my crop, l shall use 1000
pounds per acre, made up of 400
pounds of nitrate of soda, 400 pounds
acid phosphate, and 200 pounds kainit.
However, / do not advise so heavy
rate for beginners; it is better to start
with say 100 of nitrate. 200 of acid
and 100 of kainit and if it pays, then
gradually increase the rate as exper-
ience warrants.
Here we apply our mixture of acid,
nitrate and kainit from l to 10 days
before planting. We mix our matec-
ials on tight floor, in wagon bed,
or n smooth, hard place on the ground
viii do as we'll We weigh up the prop
er amounts of the different materials
and pour them out in batch of from
600 to 1000 pounds, and thoroughly
mix them with shOvels and hoes. We
usually apply by hand, as we never
have found an entirely satisfactory
machine for doing this work. Several
methods for applying are followed.
One way is to open the bed with
small plow, put in the fertilizer, cover
with harrow, and follow with the
planter Another is, when making the
bed to plant on. throw in the first fur
row, put the fertilizer mixture on this,
then finish bedding out, and plant. l
rather prefer the latter, as it saves
the labor of opening the bed, and |
think just as good results follow.
Under all conditions, all acid aud
kainit should be applied about plant
ing time On lands with a clay sub
soil, all nitrate up to 200 to 250
pounds per acre should be applied at
planting time. Where as much as

The Editors Eye

A young man, has asked how money
is made. He is not interested in know
ing how gold and silver are minted
or mined. He wants to know just why
one man is paid more than another.
Think about il for a moment and
see how you would answer the ques-
tion. Then read the following para
graphs.
Imagine n group of small islands
Thousand Islands in Georgian Bay, for
Instance.
Imagine that each island is inhabit-
cd by one lone man, and that each is
land affords the means of complete
subsistence. By his own labor the in
habitant of each island is able to sup
ply himself with food, clothing and
shelter. II is unnecessary for him to
engage in commerce with the rest Of
the world.
We win suppose that the residents
of Thousands Islands 20 on this way
for one year. and that trade is then
established between them, and a gov
ernment is formed.
II then develops that one man is a
particularly good fisherman and anoth-
er an excellent lumberman. A third
is a good hunter and fourth a good
cloth maker. These four enter into
an arrangement for the exchange of
products. The fisherman now engages
almost exclusively in his favorite oc-
cupation and exchanges fish for lum-
Der, game and clothing.
The fisherman, il turns out, is Of an
inventive turn of mind. He invents a
net for catching fish. and applies to
the government of the Thousand Is
lands for a patent. prohibiting others
from using a net unless they make
terms with him.
What is the result? by working an
average of one hour day, the fisher
man aecomplishes more than when he
worked all day. In order TO keep
everyone satisfied he gives a few more
fish in exchange for his lumber. game
and cloth. However. he has so many
fish that he extends his field Of trade
Lumber, game and cloth are delivered
TO him in large quantities by more than
a score of islanders to whom he sup
plies fish. Being compelled TO work
only an hour a day, he uses his idle
time to construct fine house. to make
many suits of clothes, and to salt
down his surplus meat.
Eventually he is known as the rich.

Know Your Chickens

j. w. Sargent, Pulaski county farm
demonstration agent, showed in a
statement published in the Gazette
why so many Of the people who take
pencil and paper and figure marvellous
profits from poultry fail when they
go into the chicken business. Mr.. Sar-
gent also showed why so many farm
ers in Arkansas fail to make money
out of chickens ON the farm.
Poultry growing, like any other farm
endeavOr in this day and time, re-
quires care and the knowledge that
comes from study and experience. The
poultry grower must know his bust
ness. 1t may surprise many farmers
who have flocks of hens to learn that
the average farm flock, if not a losing
proposition, it not a money-making
proposition. The chief reason is that
the flocks are not culled and as a re-
suit farmers are supporting worthless
hens that do not produce enough eggs
to Justify their existence.
Mr.. Sargent quoted figures from a
recent private survey of $4,000 hens
in $50 farm 1ocks to show that the
average hen produces only 60 eggs per
year. The feed consumed by each
of these hens is worth $1.65 So it
costs the farmer 30 cents per dozen to
produce eggs from hens of that sort,
and as most of the eggs are laid when
eggs are cheapest the average dozen
is not worth more than 80 cents at
the farm. The hen is not paying for
her feed. Hens of this kind should be
sold or consumed as food. According
TO those who made the survey, when
hen lays as many Of 40 eggs a year
the production cost is brought down
to 10 cents per dozen.
There should be a good flock of
hens on every farm in Arkansas and
the focks can be kept good by special
attention and special care. The flocks
should be culled each year so that
nonlayers may be sold for food. The
hens should be well fed and housed
and special attention should be given
to early Matching. Early Matched pull
