The acceptance of this statement does not in the least ignore the fact that there are sev- eral other factors that play a very infhortant part toward success in potatos growing -- type of soil, character of season andthe culo tivation and spraying of the cr op ~--but it means that with these factors Tavorable' the crop is a very résponsive one to applica tions of plant food and that the yield: will be approximately com: mensurate with the available plant food supply. = It is generally conceded that there is no better preparation for the crop than a clover 'or alfalfa per acre) and ploughed in the late summer or early autumn. This practice of fall ploughing ensures the decay of the sod and manure and provides a goodly supply of humus, which is so useful i in keep- ing: the soil moist, and at the {same tiem allows for the prepar- {ation of plant food in forms available for the use of the crop. Spring dressings of manure are not desirable, as they tend to en- courage the development of scab. As is well recognized, soils differ greatly as to their product iveness--a quality largely depen- dent upon richness in available plant food--indeed there are ne two' soils exactly alike in this re- spect -- and this fact makes it impossible to lay down hard and | fast directions for fertilizing or to give a formula that would bel equally applicable for all soils, But with fairly good soil, from a well manured" clover sod "as de~ scribed, we should consider, 350 to yoo tbs of 3:9:6 commercial: fertilizer would represent the lim-, its that may be deemed desirable | and profitable.
