THE OTHER MAN.
Perhaps he sometimes slipped a bit—
Well, so have you.
Perhaps some things he ought to quit,
Well, so should you.
Perhaps he may hav* faltered—why,
Well, all men do, and so have I;
You must admit, unless you lie,
That so have you.
Perhaps if we would stop and think,
Both I and you.
When painting some one black as ink.
As some folks do,
Perhaps if we would recollect.
Perfection we would not expect.
But just a man half-way correct.
Like me and you.
I’m just a man who’s fairly good—
I’m just like you.
I’ve done some things I never should—
Perhaps like you.
But, thank the Lord, I’ve sense to see
The rest of men with charity;
They’re good enough, if good as me—
Say men like you.

COTTON RUST IS
POTASH HUNGER
Cotton Rust has done widespread
damage in recent years, costing the
South millions of dollars in lost yields.
Many farmers in this section lose many
valuable pounds of seed cotton year
after year, because they let Rust rav
age their cotton crop. Yet cotton rust
is easy to prevent by using plenty
of potash. Leading authorities say
that Cotton Rust is simply 4< potash
starvation.”
Cotton, like all other plants, manu
factures its food in the leaves. Potash
is needed for this manufacturing pro
cess and for the transportation and
assimulatton of the food. When the
cotton plant approaches maturity and
begins to develop burs, seed and lint,
there is a tremendous demand Yor
quickly available potash.
If the cotton plant does not receive
plenty of potash, food manufacturing
is hindered or stopped, the food is
not properly distributed throughotu the
plant and a complete" breakdown oc
curs as a result of a starved condiiton.
Then you see Cotton Rust.
The leaves turn yellow, break down
at the edges, become rusty or black
and Anally drop off. The fruiting
limbs are weak, the twigs supporting
the burs are short and small, and the
burs are small and do not open pro
perly. The cotton is hard to pick and
the lint is weak and not uniform with
some long and some short fibers. The
seeds are small and immature ^yith
a low oil content. „
All of these losses are due to potash
starvation, commonly known as Cot
ton Rust. Nitrogen and phosphoric
acid do not prevent Rust. The average
fertilizer does not contain sufficient
potash to prevent Rust. There is on
ly one way to prevent Rust—simply
use enough potash to balance your
plant food an<f help you get greater
benefits from other more expensive
elements in your fertilizer.
Many farmers have found that it
pays to use potash as a top-dressing.
They have gotten excellent results
from using 100 pounds of Muriate of
Potash, or 200 pounds of Kainit per
acre. Other farmers use nitrogen-
potash mixed-goods top-dressers. All
of these materials are on sale by
leading fertilizer men. Potash top
dressing should be applied when you
chop out.

Knowing that the reason crops
ne^| soda is for the NITROGEN,
Arcadian scientists spent millions
of dollars to produce a "soda*
that would be richer In nitrogen
than any other kind. And they did
just that in Arcadian,The American
Nitrate of Soda. Arcadian con
tains more nitrogen per ton than
any other "soda/' It actually gives
you extra nitrogen at no extra cost.
Insist on Arcadian when you buy.
