To grow good corn, soil and fertilizer must supply enough potash to prevent firing of the leaves, lodging, and poor yields of chaffy ears of low feeding value, all of which result from lack of potash. The kind of fertilizer and how much to use J will depend on the soil, previous treatment, and cropping system followed. A number of experiment stations recommend a 4-8-4 fertilizer for corn at the rate of 300-400 lbs. per acre. On ,J sandy soils or on soils where cotton has rusted 4-8-6 and 4-8-8 are being used with good re- \ suits. In many cases a cotton fertilizer is a j good corn fertilizer. Ask your county agent or experiment station how much potash your soil will supply and how much to add to carry .your crop through to profit. Then make sure that your dealer sells you a fertilizer containing enough potash to supply J what you need. . You will be surprised how little extra it costs. .fcf?
