Because of a delay in freight shipment, the fertil- fzer did not reach its destination until after the 'potatoes were six inches high. Rather than not have any test at all, the Representative applied the fertiliver broadcast, and it was culti- vated into the soil, When the potatoes were harvested, it was found that the yield had been increased forty-three bushels an acre, or at the rate of 172 bushels of potatoes for a ton of fer- tilizers.

It is entirely practical and profit- able to top-dress oats at any time dur- ing the tillering or stooling stage. As soon, however, as the stems or stalks commence to shoot up rapidly, it is too late for work of this kind. To top- dress oats, use a fertilizer grain drill, letting the hoes or discs barely touch the ground. SIDE-DRESSING CORN. Within an astonishingly short time #fter the corn is up, the feeding roots meet and interlace between the rows, "What shall I do?

Use a one-horse or five-hoe grain drill, such as is used for seeding win- ter grains in standing corn. This ma- chine is also most excellent for apply- ing side dressings of fertilizer to pota- toes, cabbages, tomatoes, and in fact, to all 10 crops. If you use a fertilizer broadcaster, cultivate or work the soil immediately after spplying the fertilizer. This mix- es the fertilizer through the soll so that the small feeding rootlets ca; get to it. Do not work deep IL to cut the roots. 18 THERE ANY DANGER OF INJURING THE CROP? Fertilizers furnish -- concentrated plant-food materials. A single bag of high-analyels fertilizer usually con- tains more elements of plant-food, and in a more available and quick-acting form, than half a ton of ordinary farm manure. Therefore, do not apply the fertilizer too close to the plant, but let the roots reach out for what they need. The only danger arises from getting fertilizer on wet foliage, and this can be easily avoided. SS r---- "" a [oEAL_ [ashions<?
