Use ot Commercial Fertilizer
i The editors of the lay newspi
pers, and even some of the agr
cultural journals, are agai
urging farmers to buy less ferti
izers and use more home manure
The arguments advanced in *U|
port of such advice are not vei
clear cut, nor verv distinctl
stated, but the idea seems to I
that by reducing the amount <
fertilizers the expense accent
would be reduced and the cottc
production be diminished. Th
main stress'soems to be place
on the pronosition that the toti
production of cotton would t
reduced In replv, it may ho sai
that no one will undertake t
i deny that by using a snialh
umuuut of fertilizers on cotto
the effect would he to reduce th
vield of cotton corresponding!;
The proposition is just a plai
open and shu' one, that provt
itself, so is self evident. It ai
sumes that a reduced cotton cro
is desirable and will prove bent
ficial to the farmers. But what, i
half the farmers should quit in
iug commercial fertilizers and th
other half Rhould follow thesam
methods they have usually fo
lowed, and apply as much fertil
zers as before, or even increaf
the amount used? Ad niting tha
the result would be a smaller cro
of cotton and a higher, or at leai
a sustained market price, ho
would that benefit the half of th
farmers who bought no t'ertil
zers? You reply at once tin
1 they will have no guauo bills i
| pax and will get more for the
i cotton. That is quite true, and
I is freely admitted; but will n<
j tbe r cotton, made without ferti
izers, have cost them more I
make it then it tllev tl?ed t!
iCKstntiiarx amount? lfthnf.irn
I ers do not produce cotton ut.
; less cost hy using fertilizers, wli
in the name of heaven do the
persist in using them?
The argument would hav
force if it were practicable t
persuade the whole body of co
ton planters, acting as one ma
to cut down their guano bill
But everybody knows, or ougl
to know, that such unanimm
action is in the very nature (
the case impracticable. Would
not lie just as logical to advii
the farmers not to buy any in
proved seeds, improved impl
ments, high class mules, goc
machinery, and thereby redu<
the production of cotton and i
the same time cut ofT the highi
cost of these improved aids 1
farming? It seems so.
If a farmer can buy a proper!
balanced fertilizer, apply it jud
Iciously, prepare aud eultivat
I well ami thus produce cotton i
\ a cost of -1 or 5 cents a pouui
and -ell it lor ?> to 7 cents, it
plain common sense wisdom I
it. If he wants to reduce h
crop let him cut oil' the art
rilufita/l lliul .. ......I.,.,.
I p.M < \ vuf IJU tun 1/ n 111 1 el I ruuuv
area and yet an increased yiel
! per acre, he will still make le:
; cotton. It' he wishes to prodtu
( ..ton cheaper than a cost of I <
.- ois u pound, let him cut h
arc* down, limit it to say oni
liali, or even les? than one ha
h< nsi.iinarv are -, and apply
lit! 1 - more fertilizer to the aei
than before. The result* will bo
i i (1 tic' ion of possild v one third l
ftnumber of bales, and om
third in the co^t of producii

This kind of reduction may \

without reference to the action 1
of any other farmer. The other j^es
kind of reduction, if practiced . ,
by one farmer, or only a few 111,1
lQ farmers, will result in saving one- T
I half of hiB fertilizer bill and in- fea(
n creasing the cost per pound of .
' producing a reduced crop. The 1
._ other fellowB are not going to do nnY
jy it, because no indidual tarmer The
)e feels called on t^o make a merely xy/
)f sentimental and nou practical
lt sacrifice of his <?wn iuterebts for ,OR(
)n no good to anybody. The kind of Pro
e reduction I propose and insist jn?
(j upon is iu the direction of reduc
4| ing the cost of making cotton. To
>e do it it will be necessary to re way
(j duce the area, so as to cultivate |\
hu only the better land, and conceu
<r l rale at. least t<>ree-tourths of the
usual amount of fertilizer pur exP
chased and apply the three- fu't
v 'ourths to about one-half the old jf) ,
' area. This will result in a smaller
)B crop (possibly, but not necessari- amf
ly ), a r-inaller cost per pound and but
yet a smaller outlay for fertili- nev
5 z rs. It, does not depend at all on
if the co-operation of others. It is 1
a tote your own-skillet plan, but li^n
ie by no means" does it. amount to som
e selfishness On the contrary, it is j)eJ(

ie It is usual to assume that if a is si
^ farmer buys less commercial fer |1J1S
_ tilizers he will, therefore, use
more home made manures. I fail
w to see any reasonable ground for

: plain that a farmer cannot use

make on his own land, and 1 fail
j t*> see how the purchase and use

( men, men who utilize everv
j possible home resource to the
H fullest, and vet (ind the amount;
available totallv inadequate, for
,v the present at least, to produce
satisfactory crops The man who
