A t N opinion frequently expressed by tomato buyers that nitrate of soda and other inorganic nitro gen fertilizers impair the shipping quality of toraatoee appears to have been upset by tests at the Mississippi Agricultural Experiment Station, the results of which have just been an nounced. Not only did tomatoes fer tilized with a complete fertilizer in which the nitrate of soda was the sole source of nitrogen stand up excep tionally well on long shipments, but the official records show that those re ceiving heavier applications stood the long express journey better than the tomatoes having lighter amounts. — In going by express the tomatoes did not have the advantage of refrigerated cars in which long shipments are usu ally made. J. L. Cooley, Jr., a graduate student working for a Master’s degree, under took the tests to determine whether large quantities of nitrate of soda caused tomatoea to crack, ‘ , puff, M or become irregular in shape, and also to ascertain the keeping qualities of such tomatoes after long express ship- ments. The Mississippi Statlonjiatf the co-operation of the New York City branch of the Bureau of Agricultural Economics of the United States De partment of Agriculture in checking the condition of the tomatoes. New York was the destination of the ship- .*v- plots The plots were located at the Branch Experiment Station at Ray- . mond, Miss. Two shipments of four crates each were made from plots tertilized with an 8-4-3 formula having nitrate of soda as the sole source of nitrogen. The plots were fertilized at the rates of 1,000, 2,000, 2,500 and 8,000 pounds per acre. Arriving in New York City from Mississippi the tomatoes were carefully checked cur ing the Inspection period by inspectors of the Bureau of Agricultural Eco nomics. Only six puffy tomatoes were found In the eight crates. Ten had growth cracks and one was wormy. In both shipments the tomatoes fertilized with heavier applications were found to be In better condition than those with lighter amounts. •’Upon ripening the tomatoes had a good deep red color and smooth tex- and presented aa attractive ap- I hereby announce myself a candi date far re-election to the office of Coroner of Barnwell County, subject to the rules and regulations of the ‘Democratic primary election, and pledge myself to abide by the results and to support the nominees of the party.

Mpney-Making Tomatoez pearauce,” the Mississippi Experiment Station reports In Bulletin 252. “Very few shrivelled tomatoes were found. After such a long shipment by local express, the crates - being handled many times, freight marks and box scare were expected. These were com paratively few’, however, There were 37 bacterial rots out of 633 tomatoes shipped to New York City, which might be considered a good report.” II is planned to conduct these tests for two more years. The Station, points out that one year’s findings are not to be taken too seriously, but adds that the results are “certainly en couraging.’*** Some of the plots had side applications of nitrogen fertilizers ten days before the first picking. A substantial Increase in yield and value of the crop resulted when a side-dress ing of 200 pounds of nitrate of soda per acre was applied in addition to the fertilizer at planting. ^ I hereby announce myself a candi date for reelection to the office of Magistrate at Blackville, subject to the rules and regulations of the- Demo cratic primary election, pledging my self to abide by the results and to sup port the nominees of the party.
