Practice of Side Application Will , Be Extensively Followed This Year. Atlanta. Ga., April.—Reports recei** ed from fertilizer companies indicate that the Southern farmer fell a good deal shorf' of using as much fertilizers at planting time this year as usual. Sev. eral reasons are assigned. One is that t the farmers waited for the price of fertilizers to fall with the expectation- of using them in greater quantities _ Iban the usual amount as side applica tions to the growing crops. It seems that, the practice of side ap plication of fertilizers is quite common ly followed by successful Southern farmers.

N. Harper^director of tlie Soil Improvement Committee and recognized authority on agricultural methods of the South, says, that there are more than the usual advantages -this year iiTfavor of side applications. The reason is apparently favorable to giving good response to fertilizers. A word of caution is, however, sound- ed''"hy Mr. Harper.- He says that the Sidh ap&Hcations should he made early. s to cotton will only prolong the growth pf the plant and fever The boll weevik^He says that, it will be better to make both the side applications 'of complete fertilizers''and' , the nitrogen top dressing within sjx weeks after planting, where the' boll Weevil is present. * . \ , - For corn, hq states that side applica tions are quite generally made too late to get the best results. On clay loam qr heavy soils he advises a side appli cation and nitrogen dressing when the corn is from knee to waist high. For sandy or light soils, he says that side applications can be made later, that is, when the corn is waist to shoulder high, but before it begins to butch-to tassel. Air. Harper, says that care must be taken to use only readily available forms of fertilizer so that the growing plants can utilize them in promoting rapid growth and development of fruit. __ The fertilizer should contain phos phoric acid in the form of acid phes- fjjate. This is the main element for hastening maturity. The fertilizer _ ikould a'tso contain nitrogen and potash In thb reidily available form. Nitrogen ' • promotes the growth of the stalk and leaves and potash strengthens the plant •and helps fill out the fruit. A top dressing of sulfate of ammonia or nitrate of soia is quite commonly made, and, according to Mr. Harper, it should follow closely after the second application of fertilizer, and within the p> riods of cotton 'and corn growth which.he mentions above.
