FERTILIZATION OF WHE
l
' The following staterr
concerning the fertilizatioi
wheat this fall was issued
the department of agricult'
extension at Purdue Unr
sity, July .1, 1917:
The fertilization of
wheat crop was never n
flmn if will he
fall. From every part of I]
ana come reports of the ex
lent results secured from
tilization and the very f
yields of wheat secured f]
unfertilized soil. By ferti
ing, the farmer swaps dol
for eagles.
"Evidence on the pro!
bleness of fertilizing t
wheat is abundant." "In 1
L. M. Waggoner of St. Jos
county, applied two hum
pounds of acid phosphate
the acre, on all but a si
r>ari n field sown to wh
From the fertilized part he
cured 22.4 bushels of \vl
to the acre, and on the un
tilized, 12.5 bushels fo
acre?a gain of 9.9 bust
due to fertilizing."
This year two hunt
pounds of acid phosphate
cost about $2.25, and \vl
is worth $2.00 per bushel,
this basis tin increase seci
by Mr. Waggoner would
worth $19.80 and the pi

this isn't a case of swap]
dollars for eagles it co
very near to it.
The Ohio experiment
tion of Wooster, as an avei
for the last twenty-two yc
has secured an increase
8.0 bushels of wheat to
acre, from an applicatior
160 pounds of acid phosp
to the acre. The pliosph
yield has been 19.2 busl
and the unphosphated
bushels. Where 1000 poi
