THE HORRY HEBALC Better Farming | Permanent Influence Of Fer Feeding the Plant the Real Purpose I Soil Secon no longer spoken simply because ; ; jjfl chemical analysis allows that they Q^M contain abund MM a n c e plant food. Much of J. N. HARPER, thi8 plant food , Agronomist. may be locked up ao that plants cpn not get at it. To be available plant food must be in soluble form; that lsy It must dissolve j in the soii v\ater and change into just j the form that the plant can use for j its growth," says Professor Harpfir. "In fact," he continues, "a chemical .vnalysis may show that a soil has little total food content, but that little may often have plant food in a more available form than the richer soil, and, as a consequence, will produce greater yields. "Most of the soils of the South have been formed from granite rocks which have decayed or crumbled into particles. Soils derived front granites contain considerable sand. Such soils are found very extensively in the region east of the Mississippi river. "Can these sandy loam soils of the South he made to produce abundant crops? trie answer if 'Yes.' 1'roof is provided from the experience of thousands of farmers. They won through proper farm management and fertilization. Many farmers of the South are i today getting a bale of cotton to the acre where they once got only onethird of a bale. They are producing from 50 to 75 oushels of corn on the same land which a few years ago pro duced only 15 to i!0 bushels. "What is the secret of their sue ! cess ? "Is it in the change in the methods! of cultivation? There has been considerable improvement in this respect. "Has it been due to deeper plowing? This has been a help. "t.s it due to crop rotation? The right Kind of rotation is beneficial. "What then is the great reason? it Is this, the plants have been fed better and they have responded with belie! yields. In other words, it came about through proper fertilization. "A successful Southern farmer. w iKini uif* wrner Knows well, is now ! producing a halo of cotton to the aero on land which twenty-live years ago was pr Mir ing only one-third of a lxi'e I lie lu.t constantly grown cotton on j his: land.

O. gr in the South tilizers On Southern Soils Developing the Resources of the idary "How has he done it?" was asked. "It has been the practice of this farmer to put on his land the amount of fertilizer that he could purchase with the proceeds of the sale of his cotton seed from this same land. Oi course, this farmer could have grow* : his cotton more economically had ha grown it in rotation with other crops, Loss Through Leaching "Sandy soils naturally erode and leach readily. Phosphoric acid does not leach away but remains in the top twelve inches of soil till it is used by the plant. Potash will wash oni of sandy soils to a limited extent, but with clay soils it is practically al) available. The nitrates, on the othef hand, cannot long be retained by th^ soil. It is soluble in water and there* fore leaches oui with every heavy tain. Winter Cover Crops Help "When a field is left bare through ihc winter months, sometlines 111 than lu pounds ot nitrogen is leached) .roii: ;tu acre. It will take 000 pounds of colt on.- . ed meal per acre to replace this Ioms of nitrogen. If t he farmer plauts a e<?ve? crop such as rye, crimson clover 01 bur clover, the greater portion of tins nitrogen will ue retained and become available for the succeeding crop." TO MAKE COTTON FRUIT BETTER1 J C. Pridmore, Agronomist Inquiry -"My cotton produces plenty of weed, but fruits poorly. What j fertilizer would correct this? From the knowledge of plant nutri-j tion us it is understood at the pies-1 cm time, it appears that you have a soil containing a fairly good supply | of nitrogen, but deficient in phosphoric i acid and potash. The element nitro- , gen is considered largely with ihe development of vegetative parts of tim plants, puch as the stalk, stems and leaves. The phosphoric add js re- p >n- ' sible to a large extent for the develop-, ment of the fruit, and the hastening ut, the maturity of the plant, Potash gives , general tone and vigor to iiie plant,, and improves the quality of the fruit. The use of fertilizer will supply these plant food elements, and enable one j to overcome these apparent soil detl- , ciencies. A material analyzing from 1 per cent to - per cent nitrogen, 10 per, cent to 12 per cent phosphoric acid, and 1 per cent to 2 per cent potash, could be used profitably in such cases. Apply at the rate of three or four, hundred pounds per acre before the' crop is planted, so that the plant can" get fall benefit of Che material early j in its growth, especially under bolt weevil conditions.

I have grown crown cauliflower for a number of years and have found It a very profitable crop, as it brings a good price in the market. Soil that will produce cabbage Is suitable for cauliflower, provided it Is enriched with well-rotted manure. The manure should be thoroughly mixed with the soil and the ground put in the best possible condition. 1 prefer the Early Snowball, as 1 have found it to be the best variety for onrlv market 1 sow rho son#! ahrttil I February 15 or 20 in a hotbed, When the seeds begin to grow 1 give the plants sufficient air to keep them from rotting off. As soon as the plants are large enough to handle I take them up and transplant them two j inches apart each way, and keep them well watered. 1 expose the plants to the open air before time to plant out ' doors so as to harden them. I find that few plants die when treated in I this manner. Several hours before setting out 1 give the plants a thorough soaking in the hotbed. When ready to set the plants I mark off the ground three feet each way and set the plants somewhat deeper than they grew in the hothcd, and press the earth firmly about them. As cauliflower require* a cool atmosphere and a cool, moist soil, there; is little chance of success unless it j is planted very early in order to come on before the heat of summer. How-j ever, it may he planted late and come in during the cool weather of fall. In cultivating I use a one-horse cultivator twice a week, going both ways when the plants are small. When they , come to maturity and the Mowers appear. 1 cover the flowers with a leaf of the plant early every morning;. I have had success with this manner of protection. m kr i, "vi J*"Vv. . .* * BIG CONVENIENCE OF DAIRY Low Pressure Boiler Is Most Desirable for Heating Water for Cleansing Milk Vessels. One of the greatest, conveniences on the farm where cows are kept is sonn menus for heating an abundance of water for washing the milk vessels.

REMEDY FOR RADISH WORMS Crispriesr. and Flavor of Vegetable Improve b> Use of Sect Insects Are Kept Away. ,\ very successful truck gardener ; ccntly confessed that lie made mo: ? money out of radishes than anytning el.se. W hen asked it he was not itm:!y troubled with radish worms, lie r vonled his secret. After tiie ground has been litted up. he makes drill marks of the projn r depth for radish seeds, sp ink! >s a little soot the whole length of the: 1 and puts in the seeds and covets them. The crispt r.- s and flavor of t h ? radishes s;m :n to !)< greatly impro' 1 by tliis treatment, while the worms keep at a respectful distance. The soot has such groat forcing fpiali ins that, if the weather is not too i dry nor too cold, the radishes a'->j ready for market in I.*, days from plant-i ing, the root being large in proportion i to the top. He thus has the advantage) of harvesting crop after crop from the! same ground in one season. He dm' Clares that by using soot be can raise) good radishes on ordinary plastering: sand, provided it is well drained and j warm. Wood soot is preferable to eoulj soot, although the latter may he u?edj n/? f* 4 I. 1 .. It ?
