Considerable interest is apparent In
the fertilization of fish ponds. Experiments
conducted demonstrate
that fertilized ponds will support
from three to five times as many
pounds of fish per acre as unfertilized
ponds. We quote below from pamphlet
Issued by Alabamu Polytechnic.
Institute at Auburn and tells of the
ejiptu luienis of H. 8. Swingle and E.
V. Smith of that University:
The number of fish to be added depends
upon the number of pounds
which the pond can support. In general,
unfertilized ponds will support
? from 100 to 200 pounds of fish per
acre, while fertilized ponds support
from 500 to 600 pounds.
An acre of water, If not fertilized,
should be stocked with 400 bream
and 50 bass; if fertilized, it should be
stocked with a maximum of 1,500
bream and 200 bass?fry and fingerling
size.
Fertilizing The Pond
Experiments conducted at Auburn
have Bhown that most of the food for
fish In a pond Is furnishod by plants
so small that they can be seen only
with a microscope. These mlcroBcoplc
plants float throughout the water
and if present in sufficient numbers
give the water a light green or brown
color. They are eaten directly by
several species of fish and also fur'nlsh
the food for insects, tadpoles,
crawfish and other smaii animalo up
on which the rest of the fish feed. It
has been found the abundance of
these microscopic plants can be Increased
by the use of fertilizers and
that when this was done the number
of pounds of fish produced per acre
of water was greatly Increased. Unfertilized
ponds at Auburn produce
from 100 to 200 pounds of fish per
acre Properly fertilized ponds have
produced as high as 580 pounds of
tlsli per a<re. If It is desired to pro
water, fertilizer should be used,
duce more pounds of fish per acre of
Amount of Fertilizer Per Aore
The following amounts of fertilizer
are added to an acre of water at each
application: 40 pounds of sulphate
of ammonia, 60 pounds superphosphate,
6 pounds muriate of potash,
30 pounds basic slag or 15 pounds of
ground limestone. These materials
may be applied separately or mixed
just before they are applied. Basic
bI^k cannot be mixed with the other
materials and stored for any length
, of time as it causes loss of the ammo,
nla. If It is desired to use a commercial
mixed fertilizer, instead of
I above materials, approximately similar
results can be secured by using
| 100 pounds of 618-4 plus 10 pounds of
soda per acre at each application.
Time and Frequency of Application
The first application of fertilizer
should be made in the spring as soon
aB danger of floods is past?usually
April or May. If pond has not been
previously fertilized, two or three ap!
plications should be made whenever
the water becomes clear, approxi'
mately every four to six weeks. I^ast
application should be made in September,
pond thus receiving from 8
to 10 applications per year. The coat[
per acre per year varies from 310 to
$14.
j Method of Applying Fertilizer
1 !:: errn" nnnds uo to several acres
in area, the fertilizer is applied by
' walking along in edge of water and
broadcasting fertilizer towards deeper
water. No attempt is made to completely
cover the pond. It is applied
in shallow water and wave action
gradually spreads it over the entire
pond. At same time care is taken
not to apply any of the fertilizer right
i at edge of water as this will encourage
growth of weeds. It is best applied
in water from one to five feet
In depth. In large ponds the fertilizer
is broadcast froto boats over the
area whdre the water is from one to
five feet deep.

You've probably noticed that
most of the folks who drive
Buicks come back again and again
to this great automobile when it's
time to buy a new car.
There are two reasons for that.
One's a money reason, the other's
a pleasure reason.
Sticking to Buick means you're
sure every year that you're getting
top value, and no hunting all over
town to find it.
Repeating on Buick means that season
after season you ride behind the
ablest eight of its size in the world
?? the Buick valve-in-head straight
.? . .?
eignt, mat
Dynaflash
p owe rhouse
that's livelier and smoother and i
thriftier than engines of other type. I
Year after year you'll travel in
comfort ? the smooth, easy, levelgoing
comfort of the torque-tube
drive and BuiCoil Springing, sailing
along on a staunch and sturdy
chassis that holds you true and
steady to your course.
You always have roont in a Buick
?and this year you've a new and
broader outlook through 412 added
square inches of safety plate glass.
And you're leading the style parade
?no doubt about that?with appearance
that's like a leaf from tomorrow's
book.
All of which adds up, you'll find, to
satisfaction so complete that once
*
you've got the Buick driving habit,
no other car quite seems to measure
up.
Now this big strong resilient
straight-eight costs less than you
think. It's priced lower than a year
ago?even below some sixes.
So why not simplify your car-buying
for all time ? get that smart
Buick riding habit now.
II
In no other way that we know can
you make sure of having so much
fun. Or of getting so much value*
for every penny you spend!
