TOP-DRESSING COTTON with 125 pounds of KAINIT per acre produced 364 pounds MORE seed cotton per acre, or top dressing with 250 pounds of KAINIT per acre produced 445 pounds MORE seed cotton per acre in tests conducted by the North Carolina Experiment Station on fields damaged by Rust in previous years. 4,. v The extra cotton that KAINIT produced represents a better profit than most farmers made when lint was 12 cents per pound. Figure it out for yourself: Subtract the cost of the KAINIT from the value of the extra cotton that KAINIT produced. The table below shows the results of this experiment. Study it carefully. All plats received 400 lbs. of 3-8-3 per acre at plant ing and 100 lbs. of nitrate of soda top-dressing Where NO KAINIT was used as top-dressing Top-dressed with KAINIT at 125 pounds per acre Top-dressed with KAINIT at 250 pounds per acre Seed Cotton per Acre Weight per Boll Weight of 100 Seed Lint Index Fiber Strength Strong Fibers 775 pounds 5.17 grams 9.33 grams 5.41 grams 3.28 grams 68% I, 139 pounds 6.56 grams II. 48 grams 6.75 grams 4.38 grams 76% 1,220 pounds 7.07 grams 12.44 grams 7.17 grams 4.55 grams 83% PROFITS START WHEN YOU STOP RUST! Note that the KAINIT top-dressing not only produced many extra pounds of seed cotton, it also improved the quality of the entire crop. KAINIT produced heavier bolls, heavier seed, more lint per seed, better grade, longer staple and stronger fibers. A 124 TOP-DRESS NORTH CAROLINA EXPERIMENT STATION recommends top-dressing cotton with 125 to 250 pounds of KAINIT or 50 to 100 pounds of MURIATE per acre on fields which rusted in the past and where the fer tilizer contains only 3% potash. SOUTH CAROLINA EXPERIMENT STATION found that 120 pounds of MURIATE per acre increased the yield by 686 pounds of seed cotton per acre. In these teats, fer tilizer was used at 600 pounds per acre: 5-10-0 produced 557 pounds of seed cotton, 5-10-5 produced 1,015 pounds and 5-10-10 PRODUCED 1,243 POUNDS. The potash was equally effective applied at planting or as a top-dressing. GEORGIA COASTAL PLAIN STATION produced 1,092 pounds of seed cotton per acre with 600 pounds of 3-9-5 fertilizer. By adding 50 pounds of MURI ATE top-dressing the yield was inrrraard to 1,142 pounds, with 100 pounds of MURIATE the yield was 1,221 pounds, with 150 pounds of MURIATE the yield wes 1,316 pounds and with 200 pounds of MURIATE the yield was 1,403 pounds. £ ft* IT WILL PAY YOU to get the extra yields and extra quality that extra potash adds to your crop at such very low extra cost. PROFITS START WHEN YOU STOP RUST! Use fertilizer well-balanced with 8 to \0% NY POTASH at planting; or top- drtss with 100 pounds of NV MURIATE per acre, 200 pounds of NV KAINIT, or use a mixed-goods top-dresser containing plenty of genuine NV POTASH. All of these are on sale by your fertilizer man. N.V. POTASH EXPORT MY., Inc., Hurt Bldg., ATLANTA • Royster Bldg., NORFOLK!
