Here is a strik ing exampler-The~rustyc^^ right above received 400 pounds of 3% potash fertilizer per acre at planting and 100 pounds of nitrogen top-dressing. The healthy cotton at left was given the same treatment plus a heavy application of NV Mu riate of Potash. The cotton without the extra NV POTASH yielded only 7^70 pounds of seed cotton per acre. The colton with the extra NV POTASH yielded 1,640 pounds of seed cotton per acre. _ This photograph was taken on Septem-- ber 23rd. There 4^|i8 no RUST where the extra NV POTASH was used. The cot ton set i^fine crop and stayed green and ^ healthy and hard at work until, its bolls were full and mature. Lintswaa^wiform and high quality. /, ' .The potash-starved cotton was robbed of most of its'crhp~by RUST. It shed its leaves early and its bolls were small, poorly filled out and hard to pick. It had to quit on the job because it did not have ^ I * sufficient .available potash to make a full crop. Thousands of tests conducted by lead ing agricultural authorities have proven that RUST is the result of ektreme potash starvation. The above picture shows ex-- treme RUST damage. If you saw liaht RUST in your cotton last season, such as a slight bronzii^ of the leaves and abnor mal shedding, this means that a valuable share of your cr<^ was lost due to potash starvation. <■ r- _ ^ -— - Ask your fertilizer man about ffie very low extra cost of a fertilizer well-baU anoed with plenty of NV POTASH.
