Many members of the Expert
ment Station staff pooled their
experience and research informa-
ton to arrive at the recommen-
dations. They recognize that soil
and weather conditions, as well
as other local factors, will influ-
ence variations from the general
recommendations. No variety nor
fertilizer rate will perfectly fit
the different fields of the state;
however, the recommendations
are offered as a useful guide to
crop production. Detailed local
recommendations may be obtain
ed from county agents or other
agricultural workers in the va
rious counties of the state.
The economic side of fertiliza-
ton is considered. Most rates
are given as a range between
two figures for the farmer to
decide based on prices and other
factors. These general recon-
mendations do not take into ac-
count fertilizer needs for ex-
ceptionally high production goals
or contests.
Although the general recon-
mendations do not provide spe-
cific information for a particular
field, this may be obtained
through the Soil Testing Service
at State College.
Published in the January issue
of Mississippi Farm Research,
the recommendations are being
widely distributed throughout
the state. They may be obtained
upon request from the Expert
ment Station at State College.

Bleaching Hints
You'll get better results if YOU
add liquid chlorine bleach after
the clothes have been washing
in detergent water from three to
five minutes. The bleach has a
tendency to counterfeit the agent
in the detergent if added at the
same time.
You may add bleach in the
bead form at the same time as
the detergent as it has a DELAYED
action. The bead form bleach is
slightly more expensive than the
LIQUID form.
Don't add bleach to wash if
you have iron in your water -
if the clothes yellow and fixtures
stain. 1t only increases the
trouble.
Oxalic acid, which is poison
Gus. will remove iron stain from
clothes.

so. Nevertheless, any money
realized on the sale of the K
street tract must go into the
general Treasury fund.
At Mercy Of Congress
The Commissioners are
then at the mercy Of Con-
gress as to whether they will
get the money back. Mean
while, they must purchase
seven lots for a new site for
their police station.
If the way is not cleared
by a separate appropriation
in some future budget to buy
the seven lots and move the
precinct, then building of
the new hotel could not be
undertaken.
Added to this is the fact
that Mr.. Graham and the
