Top dre*sing time ia on us, and to make maximum crops on our reduced acreages, we must feed the crop some quick nitrogen and potash now, especially jf you didn’t put any thing under the crop before planting. You can’t make big crops with no fertilizer or with just a little ferti lizer, and yea know it as well as I do. Time* are hard, yes but fertilizer* are cheap, especially the new nitro gen potash top dressers which are ap pearing on the market this spring. Cheap cotton was never made by skimp ng with fertilizer. The man j who geneially makes the most money 1 out cf this crop is the fellow who i puts from r>00 to 1,000 pounds of a ' complete fertilizer under and along side his crop.

La^t week I commented at length on sweet potatoes and - had many people comment favorably on my ar ticle. Perhaps you didn’t see it.

Space your rows .3 feet 'apart, set your plants 8 inches apart -on the rows. Grade your crop at harvest seasi n, and don’t wait un til you go to sell them in February.

Thus, requested to ^wxite “police man,” she put down “namecilop”; for i” she yprtletf “Noved”; all wonR'mere similarly reversed.
