Nitrogen Is Big
Factor in Better
Yields of Cotton
A number of tests conducted by
Southern experiment stations clearly
show the importance of nitrogen In
fertilizing cotton. At the South Caro
lina and Alabama Stations, for exam
ple, experiments have shown that the
increased yields of "cotton obtained
by increasing the dbiount of nitrogen
ia a fertilizer were much greater
than where increased amounts of
either phosphoric acid or potash were
applied. _
Nitrogen must be relied upon for
increasing yields per acre, and when
an insufficient amount is furnished In
the fertiizer spplied at planting it is
obvious that side dressings must be
msde to Insure the protLable produc
tion of the - crop which is obtained
through high yields per aero. Side
dressings of nitrate of soda are im
portaut for furnishing this nitrogen
because the average mixed fertilizer
spplied at planting is out of propor
tIon as regards the percentage of nl
trogen.
Home mixing of fertilizers is in
creasing fh popularity. By buying his
nitrate of soda, acid phosphate and
potash and mixing his own fertilizer,
the farmer is absolutely sure of the
materials be la using, known that he
is getting the beet and generally eavee
a nice sum of money. Where home
mixing Is followed It le often advis
able to put only a part of tha nitrate
of soda under the crop and the re
malnder as a side dressing after chop

Their Philosophy
"In these days of short skirts we
look back with amusement to tbe time
of the crinoline and hoopsklrt,”
philosophically said Professor Pate.
“When bangs were in vogue we smiled
at the remembrance of the chignon
and waterfall, Just as today we find
the recollection of tbe Grecian bend
highly diverting. At any date, from
the present back to tbe time of Go-
dey's •Ladles’ Book, we can pick up a
fashion publication of a f«w years be
fore and enjoy a hearty laugh. And
thus it will qyer be; the correct thtnp*
of yesteryear ia the laughing stock of
today. Just as the modes of the pres
ent will be either humorous pa
thetic, a few yesra hence."
'•Yes," returned J. Fuller Gloom, the
human hyena, “except In politics—the
Hon. has always been a nuisance, and
always will be. '—Kansas City Star.
v Strength of Rings
Some elaborate calculations backed
by experiments have been made to de
termine the “breaking strength" of
ring*- It appears that a ring of dne-
tile material }lke malleable Iron will
be pulled out Into the form of a tong
link before it breaks, and that the
ultimate strength of the ring is vir
tually Independent of Ita diameter.
Fracture finally occurs as the result
of almost pure tension, and the resist
ance to breaking is a little less than
twice that of a rod of the same cross-
section subjected to a straight pull.
As the ring increases in diameter
tnere appear* to be a slight approach
toward equality, with double the
strength of a bar. Thus a 8-inch ring
made of three-quarter Inch iron broke
at 194 tons, a 4-lnch ring at 19.9
tons and a 6-inch ring at 20 tons, the
strength of a bar of the same metal
being 104 tons.

W E recently were given the tremendous advantage of having the mammoth*
Firestone factories brought to us. In Tire Educational Meetings we were
shown, by means of motion pictures, charts, tire samples ai)d complete engineer*,
ing data, the details of Firestone tire design and construction—and how Fir®--
stone and Oldfield tires and tubes are made in the world’s most efficient ana
economical rubber factories. •

Firestone pioneered the original low-pressure tire and made it practical byf ** i
Gum-Dipping. The motion pictures showed us how the cords of the carcail
are dipped in a rubber solution, thoroughly saturating and every
fiber of every cord with rubber. Simple demonstrations and tests illustrated die
great advantage of this process, which supplies the extra strength to withstand
the extra flexing strains of low-pressure construcdon—one of me reasons why
Firestone Gum*Dipped Tires are establishing
$uch unheard-of mileage records.

were shown why Firestone', from die very begin
ning, designed and continue to use the round’
Balloon Tread, minimizing “shoulder breaks”, so
destructive to tires. Excess rubber at the edges of*
a Balloon Tread is wasted—actually detrimental to
tire mileage. In the Firestone Tread the small
units and sharp projections are scientifically placed
to permit easy flexing, resulting in extraordinary
riding comfort. r -
