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.

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

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.

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
