FERTILIZERS AND HORTICULTURE. The Fifth of a Series of Six Articles. The fruit and vegetable growers are always leaders in the use of plant foods for their crops. This is especially true of the vegetable growers. What they wish Is rapid growth in their produce, so that they will get the vege tables oh the niar^gt in the shortest possible time from the time of planting^ This is the secret of success with vegetables, and the,only way. to meet such conditions is tp apply fertilizers in large quantities. In the next paper we shall tell about the “home garden” and how to fertilize it. In the present paper we are to tell more particularly about fruit trees-and other horticultural plants. » The relation of apjfle growing to fertilisers has never been very carefully worked out. We know that the use of fertilizers with .fruit trees, and especially apples, pays, but we have not yet worked out the best formulae for the various kinds of trees, nor the amounts which pay best. Brisbin says, in his book on ''Trees and Tree Flanting," that In planting young trees.large quantities of manure should be used in preparing the place for planting. These manures should be rich in plant food-elements- if the tree* are ex pected to make rapid growth. The best way to increase the plant food in manures is to add to the manures the mineral elements In various forms, and mix with leaf mold and manures. Brisbin also recommends that weeds should not be allowed to grow ground the apple trees, as they will take up the plant food which is put down for young trees. The best method of producing fruit Is to keep the field or orchard clean by growing other crops which require constant attention and cultivation. Most farmers and horticulturists^ fertilize the crops that grow in the orchard, and 'in this way save the expefise of fertilizing the fruit trees again. In many instances legumes are grown as a cover crop, and, incidentally, to furnish nitrogen. The orchard cannot be cultivated too deeply, or Injury will result. It needs to be cultivated shallow, and manures or fertilizers applied in reasonable quantities. While it is necessary to put fertilizers near the trunk of the tree, yet the roots scatter pretty well over an orchard, and the plant food that happens to fall further away from the trunk is not lost. A large crop of apples or peaches takes from the .soil much plant food, such as nitrogen, potash and phosphoric acid, and unless this is supplied from time to time, the trees will prove less fruitful and finally bAr very little fruit, and what they do bear will be of poor quality. The argument that old trees in ,pastures bear good fruit is not sound, because conditions prevail in many isolated places this way that cannot be duplicated in the orchard. Many times' It Is the natural leaf mold, woods earth, droppings from animals, and other materials carrying available plant food that make the fruit on such trees. Besides, such fruit is rarely ever as excellent and delicious as that grown in a .well-kept orchard. Fruit, like all other kinds of field and garden crops, must be forced more or less to measure up to a high standard. To force the fruit, and at the same time keep rhe land fertile, we must apply to the soil as much fertilizer as the crop takes from It. Fruit trees demand In their growth a fertilizer rather rich In potash and phosphoric acid, but not very rich In nitrogen. It was found that the citrus trees In rallfbmUk a* the Riverside Experiment Station grew belter iniU sWd did better every way with a complete fertilizer than with any single plant -i.—.^i, ,.r iiwouipin# combinatlop. It was also found that the arid requirements at these trees were more contpVtely sui'pTTecFwith sul- *jf phate of ammonia than from any other nitrogen source. Many of the experiment stations hate secured c'lMsf results from fertilizing ' orchards, but none quite so good as the Ohio ststiuil. F.

FERTILIZERS AND THE HOME GARDEN. The Last of a Sar.s* of t>x Article*. A farmer that we used to know quite well always put on hi* garden plot a sack of guauu ard three or four loads of »table and other kinds of barn yard manure. Ills garden covered aboui z.m-ntlh t* an acre, and,was good land to begin with, in fact, he had selet led a good, rich epot of ar^dpd for bis garden. The fertilizer be appliCcTaiiiounied to a thousand poui^f* per acre, and the barnyard manure to about seven or eight tons. Uf course, he grew m good garden, as most people do. and vet be often wondered why his garden was so much better than other'Iian* of his farm. He was a igood farmer and made plenty ol e»ei M-Lmg. and to spaza. U« knew, that he made liberal applications of fertilizers and manures to his garden, but was never quite willing to acknowledge that these madi* all the difference in the yields. Our gardens are usually the richest spots ou the farm, ami are so only be cause we niake/ihcm so by fertilization and cultivation. Every acre iff) the average farm could* be made just as rich if we tried to make it so. We do not consider suffiaiently the factors which make fertile land. We do not Strive to do intensive farming, but rather make it as extensive as our acres will allow. When we wish to make an additional bale of cotton, or bushel ot corn, we take in more-land instead of enriching w hat is already under cultiva tion. | Dr. L. H. Bailey has given in his book, ‘ The Principles of Vegetable Garden ing," some valuable suggestions on the use of commercial fertilizers. "The kind and amount of fertilizers.’ he says, “are to be determined by several circumstances: (1) The earliness or quickness with which the crop is to be obtained; (2) the intensity of the operations to which the man is committed; (3) the character of the land as regards tilth and texture; (4) the character of the land as regards richness in plant food; (5) the kind or species of crops to be raised." Whatever the condition of the land or the nature of the crop, it must be fertilized if the gardener meets with success. Competition in the truck-growing business can be met in no other way than by liberally fertiliz ing- the ground on which the crops grow. Dr. Bailey has wi»ely said that fertilizers must be applied in excess of the actual needs of the plants. It is impossible to distribute a very small quantity of fertilizers over a large area. Vegetables are such rapid growing plants that one need not fear that much of the fertilizer will leach out through the soil on account of rain. If it ta. applied close to or in tha drill row, all of it should be saved. The plants will absorb it before It gets away. The formula generally recommend-’ ed consist; of a complete fertilizer, though the acid phosphate and nitrogen should come from different sources, even in the same fertilizer applied at any given time. The mixture for gardens should be composed of as many kinds of ingredients as possible, carrying the three fundamental elements of plant food—potash, nitrogen and phosphoric acid. Voorhees recommends heavy applications of such mixtures to the com mercial gardens and to truck patches.~He says 1,000 to 5,000 pounds per acre of such mixture should be applied to aaparagus, and as much to beets and turnips; less than that to peas.and beans. With any amount an after applica tion has been found profitable. This is sometimes called the second applica tion, which is not generally a complete fertilizer, but is composed of nitrogen, or one of the other elements alone. The second application of fertilizers may be composed of ammonia and acid, or other formula to suit the immediate crop. v. ■ - . _ Garden vegetable# need large applications of fertilizer because any check in their growth produces Inferiority In quality. It in said by Dr. Bailey that any delay in the growth of lettuce or radishes will generally cause a pungent flavor or sharp taste that is undesir able. It cut down the market value. The way to remove any cause for this is Id fertilize well and properly And then cultivate The turnip Is made very Inferior when there le a check in growth. The vegetables that a ns thus stunt ed seem to revert to the original type from which they were derived, especial- with regard to taste, and hence ehould be carefully looked after in regnrd _ applied to th*> tahU garden na early after the spring breaking as possible, as the soil ought "I ~ ’ N Train No. 30 connects at Columbia with the rapidly * "" 1 ~ ^ $11.79 IPs only $1.67 per gaL Made with right proportions ot Lead.
