cores were requested numbers.

POTASH MADE THE DIFFERENCE J
aF YOU grow corn, grow good corn. No ']
other kind is profitable. 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.
