FERTILIZERS.
Mr. Wakefield Gives Valuable
Information.
Antieville, S. C., Feb. 15,1915.
Mr. Editor:
Saturday the 13th of February was advertised
by Clemson College, and to be
held in every County In the State, as Economy
and Fertilizer Day. While it was
not largely attended, I feel sure many of
us were disappointed, as we were led to
believe we would have something along
the line of Economy and Fertilizer by ex
perts that would have done us good. I,
for one, was disappointed in the meeting,
but still hope that good may result from
it.
Now, Mr. Editor, I want to say something
along the line of Fertilizer, and by
your publishing the same it may reach
some in time to save them some money,
Every man in the County (if he be Ja man)
is doing his utmost, not only for self but
those he can help, be it by some kind word
or otherwise. So I feel (as this is season
for fertilizer) I might save some at least
paying out unnecessary money for this
commodity. So under the circumstances,
what will be the best thing for us to do ?
I say that the farmer who has disposed
of his cotton seed (and I hear there Is not
one in a nundred but what has done this
very thing) should buy 14 per cent Acid
and Nitrate of Soda: take 1760 lbs. Acid
and 240 lbs. Nitrate of Soda and you have
a first-class fertilize, minus the Fotaeh, for
$16.00 per ton that will analyze 12 per cent.
Phos Acid, 2 per cent Ammonia, no Pot
ash. Of course we would all prefer some
Potash, but on account of high prices prevailing,
would cut it.out for this year. It
matters not what brands you buy this
year you won't get much Potash; and
should you get It, you are paying too dear
for your whistle. \
Now they are quoting a 10-2-2 fertilizer
at $22.60 per ton, and I assure you I would
rather have the one outlined above, 12-2-0.
at even prices. Yet you are saving $5.60
per ton by mixing your own goods. Is
this not quite an item ? Think of what it
would save to'the County.
vNow, I am making no fight on Cotton '
Seed Meal|aoron any other ammoniates, as a
there are many good ones, but they are all ?
too high compared to Nitrate of Soda. For
instance: In 2,000 lbs. of Soda you get 360 ,
lbs. actual Ammonia at a cost say, $45.00. "
In a ton of Cotton Seed Meal you get 140
lbs. actual Ammonia at a cost of $30.00 per ii
ton. Don't you see in the Nitrate of Soda y
proposition you are buying your Ammo- ^
nlates at $2^0 per unit, and in Cotton Seed
Meal you are paying for the same thing ^
$4.50 per unit ? This is based on lawful''

C. S. Meal has a little Phos Acid and a little
Potash, but so little it amounts to almost
nothing. Now, could I make this
more plain ? It is so plain anyone can see
it. The most serious proposition that
confronts us is, where the money is to
come from to buy this Nitrate of Soda.
The dealers are selling strictly for cash
and you won't be able this season to buy
on any other terms. So Mr. Banker comes
In, and should advance deserving farmers
this amount, and you will have no trouble
In Duying your Acid Phos, provided you
have settled up and made satisfactory arrangements
for last year. I know many
have not done so, so let all such do without,
or the best they can.
Now, Mr. Editor, there has never been ?
any reason for any man to owe one dollar
for fertilizer, and it takes times like this ^
to put us to thinking. Our cotton seed E
rightly managed will always give us an
abundandance. You can almost any year
swap Ton of Seed for Ton of C. S. Meal
and often do better, and you can always
swap Ten of Seed for Two and sometimes p
Three Tons Acid, so you see you q
are getting two for one, and 1-1 Meal and (_
3-4 Acid will give you a good fertilizer C
and it paid for. In some cases I know of a
all the cotton made on farm going to pay ^
fertilizer bill. Now, what are your seed
worth on this proposition ? $45.00 per a
Ton or 671-2 per Bushel, and they are al- b
ways worth 50c to the farmer, managed as o
outlined. I am aware all farmers can't P
make this exchenge, for there would not
i- a
be enough meal to go around, as we oniy get
800 lbs. Meal from Ton of Seed; but *
swap yours in future and get the other fel- [j
low's meal and owe no fertilizer account in "
fall. This will surely solve the fertilizer
question. Now, It is/useless for me at this tl
time ofteconomizing to advise you to make
all home-made manure possible. Rake up
your dirt in flats, haul leaves and anything
you can get, and with a little Acid _
sprinkled in, you will be able to cut your
fertilizer account at least in half.
I could write on and on, If I knew it
would amount to anything, but will close n
for this time: and I hope to see others ex- h
press their ideas, as this is the only way to B
reach the people?through the County pa- aj
pers at their fireside.
Yours truly, ?!
S. J. Wakefield.
