Where NV POTASH was added to the nitrogen top-dressing the yield was increased to 1,640 pounds of seed cotton per acre. A little potash is not enough to prevent Rust and increase yields. You must make sure you use enough to produce a healthy, high-yielding, high-quality crop. Top-dress with 100 pounds of NV MURIATE per acre, or 200 pounds of NV KAINIT, or a nitrogen-potash, mixed-goods top-dresser containing 10 to 2S% NV POTASH. If you prefer to use your extra potash at planting, select a fertilizer containing 8 to 10% NV POTASH. Where Rust has been very severe you may need both high-potash fertilizer at planting and potash top dressing to STOP RUST and START PROFITS. Thousands of farmers have found that it pays to use a lot more potash than the average fertilizer contains. When you buy your fertilizer and \Op-dresser, tell your fertilizer man you want more NV POTASH. It costs little and pays BIG! N. V.
