How Do You Feed Your Crops? D O YOU KNOW just what your cotton and corn need, and are you furnishing it in such quantities as required and in such shape that the plant can use it ? Suppose you should put the food for your stock in a box, nail it up and place it in their trough*-would you ex pect them to thrive and grow fat ? Hardly ! Well, did it ever occur to you that when you use lump}r, badly mixed fertilizers you are putting this same proposi tion up to your crops-offering them plant food in such shape that they can't get to it ? Fertilizers, to do your crops any good, must dissolve in the soil waters. These are constantly in motion, rising to the surface during the day and sinking at night-passing and repassing the roots of the plant, which absorb the food contained in the water-and this is the only way in which the plant can feed. Therefore, when you buy fertilizer, yo ii should do so with the idea of furnishing food for your crop and on the sair.: principle that you should purchase food for your stock. It should not only contain the necessary Ammonia, Phosphoric Acid and Potash, but above all else these should bc* in soluble form-the mechanical condition of the fertilizer should be such as to permit the plant to absorb every particle of it, and the goods should be manu factured from materials that will not give up their plant food at one time, but furnish a steady supply throughout the entire growing season. This is the fertilizer you should have and can ?et in only one way. It is impossible to produce a goods like this by the dry-mixing of raw materials, whether you do this at home with a shovel and a screen or buy it from someone who has made it the same way-the on ly differ ence being in the quantity. These materials must be ;?round to a powder, and it re quires machinery costing thousands of dollars to do it properly. They must then be so manipulated that when complete, you have a compound, each ounce of which is exactly like every other ounce, and not a mixture, one part of which would contain too much Ammonia and too little Potash, while another part would be exactly the opposite-and all of it contain plant food locked up and not available. , Remember that the chemical analysis of a fertilizer is no test of its crop growing qualities. The chemist can pul verize lumps and by the use of various means search out the plant food ; your crop can't. You can take an axe, br.?ak open the box and get the corn ; your mule can't.
