MJ Soule of Georgia Agricultural College.) Cotton seed meal provides a most desirable form of organic nitrogen for farm and garden crops. The nitrogen in the meal is not in as quickly available form as in some other materials, but it is a decided advantage to supply a part of Mfe. because an application of nitrat* of anda in the form of a too dreaiac will enable the ctop' to receive the additional nitrofen needed at a time it can utilise it to the beat and when there is no danger of its lost through washing nod leaching. The cotton seed meal in the meantime has been put in the ■oil where it will become relatively •lowly avai able and will tend to sup ply the needs of the crop nitrogen through a comparatively long growing season. Cotton seed meal also has the ad vantage of carry iffg from 2 to 2f>per cent of phosphoric acid and from 1 to 15 per cent of potash. It is not a complete fertilizer in the sense of *being balanced in the essential ele ments it provides lor crop nutrition, but it can lie easily improved through the use of acid phosphate and muriate of pdtash. It has the great advantage of mixing with these materials without the slightest injury since no objectionable chemi cal reactions occur. One may easily secure a fertilizer from high grade cotton seed meal, 16 per cent acid phosphate and high grade muriate of potash, which will show a per centage analysis of 1 8 per cent nitrogen. 10 3 per cent phosphoric acid and f> 6 per cent potash- a splendid formula to use under both corn and cotton on clay or somewhat sandy land. If these soils an* deficient in nitrogen, or the crop seems to suffer from lack of this element, as shown by the yellow character of tiu* foliage and the stunted growth, loo [Miunds of nitrate of soda applied as a top dressing during the gr w ing season would firing the per centage of nitrogen up to 2.03, ihu.> overcom ing any dvticiency in nitrogen in the soil and supply mg an essential ele ment at a a itical time m the life history of me crop. In us cotton seed meal could be most advantageously u>ed as the source of organic nitrogen, supply-j mg this eiement in a ^-heap and efficient form without danger of loss 1 or injury to the soil; and if a crop j rotation has not been pursued, any | additional nitrogen cdiild be easily and cheaply applied through a top | dressing with nitrate during the growing season.. On the other hand, if the farmer were pursuing a pro per crop rotation so as to supply the land with even a moderate amount of vegetable matter, the formula suggested, which could be prepared from the exclusive use of cotton I / seed meal, acid phosphate and muriate of potash, would provide a high grade fertilizer excellently adapted to meet his needs. Should it lie desirable l^j£epare a fertilizer for very sandy lands which are deficient in potash, the same for mula indicated might he used, and j to each .sm to llNK) pounds applied in to loo pounds of| If you want a good, light running form wagon, let us sell you a White Hickory. The light running feature of the White Hickory is one of its excellent points « You know that horesflesh costs money. A Whit'.* Hickory wagon is so light running that this feature is favorably comment'd upon everywhere. The wheels, the gears, and boxes are made ' •fgood material and properly ironed.. This excelh nt construction enables them to with stand the severe usage encountered on the farm and elsewhere. White Hickory wagons are so well built, in fact, that after years of service a farmer still has good words for his White Hickory wagon. We cai) show you some White Hickory wagons that have been in use for ten years and are still being used every day. If you are not in need of a wagon at present, it will pay you to investigate the White Hickory and be ready when the time comes. We guarantee ihe White Hick ory to be perfect in every respect. A.

It would he essential element from sources which Walterboro Oil Mill will insure its l>ecoming available for the sustenance of the plant through a rather long growing period. When nitrogen is supplied from cotton seed meal, it is not so liable to be lost from leacning as if secured from other sources, and this, of course, is a matter of great importance to the farmer. Organic nitrogen is relatively more expene- sivc than that secured in strictly mineral forms, but for the reason mentioned, and others which might be advanced, one can often afford to pay a little more for it in this form. High grade cotton seed meal hap pens to provide organic nitrogen in very easy for the fanner to either j apply this separately us a' side ap- 1 plication shortly after the en»p is up} «»r to mix it with the portion put on I each acre as he saw propei. In this ; way the |>er eent of potasn would be' raised to a point where it would sup-1 ply a sufficient amount of this ele ment. The advantages of cotton seed meal as a source of organic nitrogen and the ease with which it can be applied separately oy mixed with other materials are not as fully appreciated as they should he.

Cotton seed meal may also he mixed with the other fertilizing elements and buried in the ground ten days to two weeks before planting a crop without dan- g*y|of any material loss of nitrogen through too rapid fermentation or leaching. This is a great advantage since it is often desirable, for instance, to bed up cotton and to prepare corn land and apply the fertilizer a few days before planting. As to the amount of cotton seed meal to u.*, that will depend on the crop, the aoi!, and the grade of fertilizer it is desirable to use uirder a given set of conditions.
