Buck Creek section at 7 o’clock p. m.
Saturday. The hail stones were as
large as marbles and the average depth
of the fall was two inches, while in
ditches and low places the drift? were
as high as three feet. Many fields
will have to be [planted over, and
quite a number of young chickens and
turkeys perished.
You Are Richer Today.
You are richer today than you
were yesterday . . if you have
laughed often, given something, for
given even more made a new friend
today, or made stepping-stones cf
stumbling blocks; if you have thought
mere in terms of “thyself" than “my
self,” or if you have managed to be
cheerful even if you were weary. Yru
are richer tonight than ycu were this
morning ... if you have taken
time to trace the handiwork of G:d
: n the commonplace things of life, or
if you have learmc) to court out
things which really do pot count, or
if you have been a little blinder to
the faults of friend and f:e. You are
far richer if a little child has smiled
at you, and a stray dog has licked your
hand, or if you have looked f r the
best in others ard given others the
be^t in you.—Ancnyrmus.

S OME farmers never know what fine cotton their land will produce
because they never try top-dressing with potash. When their crop
makes a quick start “down hill” in July and August, they fail to
recognize Rust as the real cause. Unless Rust is very severe its
signs are hard to detect in the field.
Cotton Rust is potash starvation. No matter how hard you try to
make a fine crop, if cotton can’t get plenty of potash it becomes
weak and starved and has to quit. Leaves turn yellow and brown
and drop off. Bolls are small, poorly filled out and hard to pick.
Yields are poor, lint is low quality and not uniform.
Top-dressing with 100 pounds of NV Granular 50% Muriate or
200 pounds of NV High-grade 20% Kainit per acre keeps cotton
green and healthy, maturing fruit until a full drop is made (includ
ing a good top crop). It PREVENTS RUST, helps control Wilt
and produces strong, vigorous plants with less shedding, larger bolls
that are easier to pick and better yields of uniform, high-quality lint.
- #
Thousands of tests by experiment stations and leading farmers
prove it pays big dividends to give/cotton a lot more potash than
the average fertilizer contains. In these tests the many extra pounds
of valuable seed cotton added to the crop by potash top-dressing
were very profitable because they were produced at such low cost.
The time to top-dress with potash is when you chop out. This
balances your plant food and helps you get greater benefits from
other more expensive elements in your fertilizer. Use 100 pounds of
NV Granular 50% Muriate per acre, or 200 pounds of NV High-grade
20% Kainit, or a nitrogen-potash, mixed-goods top-dresser con
taining plenty of NV POTASH. See Your Fertilizer Man Today!

Typical bolls from the field just above. Lint from the po^asb-
top-dressed cotton measured a full inch and was uniform,
high quality. Lint from the other cotton measured seven-
eighths and was not uniform, with some long and some

No fertilizer was applied to this crop of Austrian
winter peas which followed cotton in the field
just above. 1 his difference in yield was due en
tirely to the residual effect of the potash top
dressing applied to the cotton. All legumes need
olenty of potash.
