the many friends who werte so kind]
and thoughtful of us in our recent I
bereavement. Their kind attentions

"And There Wasn't the Slightest
Smell from Dead Rats.*' 1
Writes John Simpkins, farmer of
Annandale, N. J. "Rats were costing
me hundreds yearly; tried dogs,
ferrets, poison, could not get rid of
them. Bought $1.00 pkg. of RATSNAP
(5 cakes). Used half, not a
live rat since. Dead ones aplenty. I
like RAT-SNAP because after killing
rats it dries them up?leaves no
smell." Three sizes, 25c, 50c, $1.00.

FERTILIZERS
ARE DELAYED
Side Application After Planting
Advised by Agricultural Authority
if Plant Food is Not
Received in Time to Put
Them Under the Crop
"Southern tanners are demanding
more fertilizers than ever before; but,
unfortunately, all Indications are that
rough fertilizers cannot be manufactured
and delivered In time to meet
this demand before the crops are
planted," says Director J. N. Harper
of the Soil Improvement Committee,
who has been traveling extensively
throughout the farming sections of the
South.
"In this exigency, what Is the farmer
to do? Sit idlv don end ear there
U do um try in*? By no manner of
means! He should prcceed with nls
preparation and planting. He should
porslst In his efforts to get bin fei>
tlllsers until he does get them, then
apply them as a side application to his
crops.
"Side applications hare long been
practiced under normal conditions, and
now necessity demands that a large
quantity of the plant food be applied
In this way. The plant can feed upon
the fertilisers when they are put
on as a side application just as well
as when put under the crop. The
first application can be made as soon
as the fertilizers are received, even
if the cotton is up and has made some
growth.
"Under boll weevil conditions, it is
desirable, of course, where possible, to
apply the fertilizer under the cotton,
bi a farmer is not taking as great a
<-nanr>o at failure with a. fiidfi RDDlica
for. as In attempting to grow the crop
without fertilizers.
"It is not as economical to make a
side application as to distribute the
fertilizers and prepare the land with
the same operations as is usually
done at seeding time. But the present
demand for all farm commodities and
the prices they are bringing abundantly
justify this comparatively small
additional expense.
"The factors influencing the shortage
of fertilisers have been beyond
the control of the fertilizer manufacturers.
The main difficulty has been
the scarcity of grc .d phosphate rock,
from which to manufacture acid phosphate,
due chiefly to the protracted
strikes in the phosphate f.elds of Flor

Ida, and to the railroad car shortage.
The factories have been unable to run
at full capacity, not only because of
insufficient raw materials but because
of a lack of labor. The manufacturers
are making every effort to get suf*
ficient materials and labor to operate
their factories at the highest posecible
speed.
"The farmers should accept the sit*
uation, proceed with his planting,
utilize what fertilizers he has, if any,
by putting them under his crop, and
apply the rest as he receives them,
and feel confident that a satisfactory
crop can be made "
MORE MONEY CROPS
FOR SOUTHERN STATES
Though cotton will always remain
the South's main money crop, there ti
no rood reason why it should be the
only money crop that a southern
planter should raise, especially whea
there are so many others that pay as
well, or better, than cotton.
lteferrlaT to the crop reports of the
Halted States Department of Agtisaltare
tor the year 1111, It will be found
that the gross vetwas w soass ef the
leading crops are very attraetirs as

PINK BOLL WORM INVADES
COTTON BELT.
The pink boll worm, a worse enemy
of cotton than the boll weevil, ha* advanced
from Mexico throufh the Cotton
Belt ae far as Louisiana.
The United States Department of
Agriculture has sounded a cry of
warning, declaring that a very serious
situation exists which calls for the
closest co-operation between states and
the government agencies that are
socking to exterminate the pest. A
special appropriation has been asked
of congress.
The appearance of this dreaded cotton
enemy In Louisiana was a great
surprise. ThoBe who were working
for Its eradication thought that they
had so confined It to a narrow strip in
'^xas that it would be an easy measure
to kill it by establishing a non-cotton
sone. A much larger territory must
now be watched and plans are on foot
to destroy the growing cotton crops
where rwi- It appears, destroying at the
same time the onhatehed eggs and the
worms
