HOW POTASH MAY LIMIT CROP YIELDS
It has long been admitted that pot
asn is an essential element in crop
production. That this statement is well
rounded is borne out by an examina
tion of the various amounts of this
element removed by some of our prin
cipal crops. For instance. IS tons of
apples will take from each acre of
orchard land SO pounds of potash a
year; 30 bushels of barley with the
straw would remove SI pounds of pot
ash; 30 tons of cabbage. 270, pounds
of potash; two tons of clover hay. 88
pounds; 70 bushels of corn with the
stover. 55 pounds; 2.5 tons of mixed
hay, 77 pounds; 200 busnels of Irish
potatoes with the tops. 74 pounds; 15
tons of sugar beets with the tops, 143
pounds; 1.800 pounds of tobacco with
the stems. 200 pounds; 700 bushels of
turnips with the tops, 180 pounds. For
the sake of brevity the list ends here,
but an examination of the plant food
requirements of other farm crops when
making a yield of sufficient magnitude
to prove remunerative to the farmer
would indicate the same relative need
of an abundant supply of available
potash.
Notice that the yields mentioned
above, while above the average, are not
at all excessive. It is noteworthy that
fruit, truck, field crops such as corn
and other cereals, roots and specialised
crops like tobacco all require abundant
amounts of potash for their develop
ment. It is Interesting to note that
the amount of commercial fertilizer
required to supply these needs would
vary from 102 pounds of muriate of
potash with barley to 540 hounds with :
tobacco. Remember in thia connection ■
that muriate of potash is one of the |
most concentrated forms in which this '
element can be supplied to the soil. ■
and that it would take much larger I
quantities of lower grade materials to
reimburse the land with the loss of
this element through the growth and
bale, for Instance, of a crop of cab
bage yielding 30 tons per acre.
It is contended by some that cer
tain of our soils do not require potash
fertilizers because they are naturally
so rich tn this particular food element.
It should be remembered, however, that
the.utility of a fertilizing element de
pends altogether on its availability,
and it appears from experimental re
sults that many of our soils do not
contain this element in an avail4>le
form in sufficient quantity to meet the
requirements of a growing crop, even
though the analysis may show rela
tively large amounts present in the
first 12 inches of soil. Moreover, it is
quite clear that the continued growth
of crops which take from the land an
essential element of plant food in any
thing like the proportions mentioned
above will soon reduce the available
supply materially. The effect of the
continued cultivation of one crop on
the soil without following an adequate
system of rotation or a judicious re
turn of commercial plant food in
proper amounts has been witnessed
over and over again in all parts of the
United States. Take, for instance, the
notable reduetion in yields of wheat in
the prairie sections of the middle west
and the northwest. Note the effect of
a failure to organize farm practice on
a systematic basis in the cotton areas
of the south and southwest. In sec
tions where fruit or truck growing has
been followed more or less successfully
on virgin soils for many years, the
orchardist now realizes that he has
been living on what nature stored in
the surface area through thousands or
possibly millions of years, and he now
faces a crisis of decreased yield and
an unsatisfactory grade of fruit

brought on largely by his failure to
return to the soil in abundance those
elements of plant food w’hich are now
regarded as essential by our agricul
tural chemists. It is not surprising
that the yield of wheat, for instance,
should have decreased in the section
where it formerly made such abundant
yields, for the straw which contains
about three-fourths of the total
amount of potash required by the crop
was generally burned so that the vari
ous natural agencies aided in sweeping
it away and depleting the soil content
of this element to an undesirable de
gree. Relatively speaking, the same
result has taken place in the orchard •
and truck areas, and in the cotton
fields as well.
When it is realized that potash per
forms various Important functions in
plant economy, the desirability of using
it in sufficient amounts to meet the re
quirements of all growing crops becomes
more and more apparent. For instance. I
this element is known to play an iin- I
portant part in the development of the .
structure of all p'.ants. It is certainly
necessary to the formation of the woody
fiber of the stalk and is concerned in the
elaboration and transference of starch
from one part of the plant U> the other.
Starch is elaborated in the'leaves and
constitutes the basic food supply of the
plant. From it is elaborated the various
other constituents which enter into the
composition and life activities of the
growing crop. Could any element per- i
form more important or essentia! func
tions in the service of mankind than '
this?
, It is now realized that potash is very I
• important to such crops as roots, tubers. I
beets and potatoes which contain large |
: quantities of starch. It is also of serv- -
| ice in perfecting and developing the fla- j
I vor, color and quality of fruit. When ,
applied to many crops, it stimulates
growth and enables them to tide over pe
riods in their life history which would
otherwise prove very destructive, mate
rially limiting the yield obtained from
the soil.
These facts set forth in a brief but
succinct form the draft made by our
principal crops on potash, and illustrate
the various essentian functions which it
performs in plant economy. They show
clearly why the farmer should ascer
tain as thoroughly and completely as
possib'e the amount and availability of
the potash which his soil may naturally
contain and supplement it whenever and
wherever deficient by commercial appli
cations in sufficient quantity to meet the
needs of the special crop to which the
land is to be devoted.

DIFFICULT LAND TO WORK.
C. O. L,. Lafayette. Ala., writes: I have
an acre of dark loamy red land with
a red clay subsoil that is inclined to be
gummy-like and I could not get a two
horse plow to turn It more than 5 or 6
Inches deep, but took a bull-tongue scoot
er and broke it 9 or 10 Inches. The land
was in cotton last year and was kept
clean. I intended getting some leaf mold
from the woods and filling up the rows
about half-full of it. and then applying
about 500 pounds of cotton seed meal,
acid and muriate of potash mixed. Do
you think this would be too much under
the drill row? Would appreciate any
suggestion you care to give me.
In breaking land of the character de
scribed in your letter, it is important to
bear in mind that you should not attempt
to work it except when it is in proper
physical condition. The plowing of this
land when it is sticky and wet will cause
it to run together and compact and im
pair its physical qualities to that extent.
THE ATLANTA SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL, ATLANTA, GA., TRIDAY, MAY 24, 1912.
I do not think under the circumstances
you had better attempt to plow it again
before planting, though of course, this
would be desirable under ordinary cir
cumstances. but the season is so far ad
vanced and you would have to wait such
a considerable period of time for the
ground to get in proper condition for
plowing, we believe it would be better
to plant under the circumstances without
waiting to rebreak the land. What this
land really needs is an abundance of
vegetable matter and a heavy application
of lime. Since the fertilizer and seed
should not be put into the soil until
two weeks after an application of lime.
. we think it inadvisable to recommend the
use of lime under existing conditions,
but we would advise the use of lime
on this land next fail at the rate of one
to two tons of caustic lime per acre.
On land of this character we think the
caustic lime should be given the prefer
ence over the finely ground rock, because
‘ the caustic lime will change the physi-
Ical condition more completely than the
I finely ground rock, and it is the physi
cal condition that needs transformation
more than anything else. The plowing
under of green crops will help this soil,
but, of course, this is advice to be
practiced in the future. In the meantime,
prepare your land as carefully as you
can. open the furrow as you suggest, put
in the leaf mold, and if you have any
yard manure do not be afraid to apply
it liberally. Mix the leaf mold and
manure well with the subsoil by means
of a bull-tongue and draw the furrows
i together and plant on the level at the
distances Indicated in your letter. We
! think you will find a prolific type of
| corn to do well on this character of soil.
, One of the great troubles with land of
I this type is to secure a good stand. If
j you can get the corn up and growing
■ freely, the soil generally contains enough
moisture and plant food to insure a good
yield. We have some land of this charac
ter on the college farm and know how
difficult it is to handle, but it can be
Improved, and once it is brought into
good condition, it makes exceptionally
fine land for growing corn and cot
ton.
We think an application of a minimum
of 500 pounds of fertilizer would be de
sirable, and that about a 9-3-4 should
answer well for corn. A mixture of 960
pounds of high-grade acid phosphate, 900
pounds of cotton seed meal containing not
less than 6.18 per cent of potash, and 140
pounds of muriate of potash will provide
a formula which approximates a 9-3-4
quite closely. This used at the
rate suggested above should answer very
well for corn on the character of land
mentioned in your letter.

TOP DRESSINGS OF NITRATE.
G. M. F., Albemarle. Nr C.,
Is it too late for me to apply nitrate
of soda to a few acres of wheat and
oats? The oats are beginning to head
and the wheat is about 12 inches high.
I will be glad to pay for this inform
ation if there Is any charge to those
living outside the state. I t>ut about
100 pounds of fertilizer to the acre when
tfie wheat was planted. The whea. is
planted on practically new ground, and
was in wheat last season, and sowed
to cowpeas after the wheat was cut.
Pea hay was cut off and the gruond
broken with a small plow and the
wheat sowed.
It is too late now to apply nitrate
of soda to oats and wheat; that is,
where the crop was sown in the fall.
The writer has observed a number of
patches of spring-sown oats which are
just coming out of the ground, and upon
MAIN LINE MILEAGE

Roads in South Carolina
Amend Rule—Presidents
1 Make Statements
(By Staff Correspondent.)
JOURNAL BUREAU.
Jerome Hotel.
COLUMBIA. 8. C.. May 20.—At the
request of the r'ailfoad commission the
South Carolina railroads have modified
their rule not to issue inter-changeable
milage hooks for journeys wholly with
in the state. The rule is changed so
that a mileage book issued for the main
line of a railroad will be good on all
lines controlled by the main system.
The commission tn receipt of a
letter today from President W. W. Fin
ley, of the Southern railroad, in which
he stated that mileage books good on
the Southern would-also be good on the
Blue Ridge railway. A similar letter
was received from T M. Emerson, pres
ident of the Atlhti(ic Coast Line, in
which he stated that books good on his
line wpuld also be good over tne
Charleston and Western Carolina. Mile
age issued on these roads will be ac
cepted on trains, but both letters state
that suit will be filed to test the validity
of the recent state law.
Requiring roads in South Carolina to
accept mileage on trains and that it
must be understood that the compliance
with the commissions request will not
be allowed to prejudice the rights of
the roads in this suit.
President R. L. Caughman. of the
commission, has written to Mr. Emer
son to know for certain of his acque
sence in which the commission includes
also the making good of the Coast
Line’s books on the Charleston-Green
ville train that traverses the Columbia,
New Berry and Laurens railroad. The
rue of the rairoads not to issue inter
changeable books in the state was put
into effect May Ist, |o effect state law,
which went into effect the same day re

which nitrate of soda might be used
with advantage if put on immediately.
The objection to applying nitrate when
the wheat and oats are shooting into
head or about do so is that it
promotes an undue amount of growth
at the expense of grain. There is a
tendenc yin many localities to delay the
application of nitrate />f soda to these
crops until too late in the season, and
then the farmer is disappointed in the
results obtained front its use. I have
no doubt that at) application of nitrate
on this ground early in the season
would have proven judging
from the method of handling which has
been followed and 1 the-fact that it was
in wheat last year. • G.f course, if the
season continues wet, the use of nitrate
will not be so important, because the
plentiful supply of moisture in the soil
and the well known solvent action of
water will enable the crop to gather a
larger supply of platat food than would
be possible in a dry season. In our
judgment, heavier application of fer
tilizers in the fall is advisable on wheat
and oats than is generally practiced. We
believe on most soils 400 to 500 pounds
of an 8-2-3, or on sjandy lands, a 9-3-4
will prove profitable under cereals. Ce
reals are not easier -to produce where
one seeks a satisfactory yield than cot
ton: yet we would fertilize the same land
much more liberally fdr cotton than for
oats and wheat Ordinarily about the
right application of nitrate of soda on
cereals is 100 pounds per acre, though
on corn, 150 pounds ffer acre should be
used. 1/ ‘

E. E. W, : Cedartown, Ga.. writes: I
would like to know the best prepara
tion for corn. The land was in corn
last year and lias been so wet that 1
could not cut the scalks and the weeds
are growing. The land is second bot
tom and will make about sixty-five
bushels per acre.
The preparation of the land for corn
this year is a difficult problem because
the rains have been so heavy and per
sistent up to this time that the land
is so wet any distance, from the surface
that deep plowing arid cultivation ar?
frequently impracticable. We would be
disposed to prepare land by plow
ing to a depth of six or eight inches,
though even if one has to wait until
unusually late to plant the corn, for
the preparation pf is one of the
great determining factors in the yield
to be secured. We-, think it well to
bury the stalks and weeds as com
pletely as possible. Ls observation and
experience are worth anything, many
farmers are making the mistake this
year in spite of the discouraging con
ditions they have to contend with in
endeavoring to plant their usual area of
crops without properly preparing the
land. The writer has observed much
corn and cotton planted in the water
furrows of last year. . It will be al
most a miracle if satisfactory crops are
raised under these conditions, for with
such preparation of the soil a very
short dry period at any season of
growth will prove very destructive to
both corn and cotton. After plowing
the land a good seed bed should be
prepared and then fertilized well at the
rate of 600 pounds per acre of a 9-3-4.
We believe you will find this a good
formula for second bottom land in your
section of the state. Shallow surface
cultivation will be advisable. On land
which will make sixty-five bushels per
acre we think you will find a medium
eared or big-eared sort of corn more
satisfactory probably than one of the
prolific types. We would suggest that
you plant in about 4 to 4 1-2 foot rows
and leave your stalks about 12 to 15
inches apart in the row. The advisa
bility of using a side application of the
fertilizer formula suggested above will
depend very largely on seasonal condi
tions from this date forward.
GROWING MILLET AFTER OATS.
D. J. 8., Jacksonville, Ga., writes: I
have six acres sowed to Appier oats.
On four acres I plowed under the seed
from six bales of cotton, and on the
other two I put 800 pounds of a 9-2-7
guano, and the other day I put on 100
pounds of nitrate of soda to the acre.
Will it pay me to do anything more?
It has been so wet that I have not
planted my corn yet. I have What
ley’s Prolific. What would be a good
formula? How would a 9-2-7 do for
cotton, with 100 pounds of nitrate of
soda as a top dressing? I expect to
plant ten acres to peanuts for hogs,
also some chufas and soy beans. When
my oats are cut 1 intend sowing Ger
man millet, Amber cujfg and peas for
hay. Will this pay?
Judgipgl from the preparation made
for your hat crop and .the application
of fertilizer referred 7 'to it will not
pay you to add anything further ih the
way of fertilizing, and there is little
-else you can do at this season which
is likely to behefit the oat crop. Cot
ton seed by themselves -will not make
a good fertilizer for corn as they do
not contain the plant rood elernents in
the right proportions. A mixture of
1,200 pounds of seed, 74)0 pounds of 16
per cent acid, and 100 pounds of mu
riate of potash will give you a very
good formula for corn if you use it at
the rate of 500 to 700 pounds per acre.

NO MORE SKIMMED
MILK FOR OLD S. C.
Dealers, However, Have Until
Aug. 20th to Get Rid of

(By Staff Correspondent.)
JOURNAL BUREAU,

COLUMBIA. S. C., May 20.—The date
after which it will be unlawful in
■ South Carolina to sell condensed skim
i med milk in less than one gallon capa
i city has been extended by Commls
i sioner of Agriculture E. J. Watson,
from June 20th to August 20th.
The change is made that dealers may
have full opportunity to dispose of all
stock w-hich they may now have on
hand. Commissioner Watson is also
mailying out notices to the cotton mills
that under the new child labor law there
is no summer exemption clause for
employing children under 12 years of
age as there was under the old statue.
The former law permitted a child who
had attended school four months prev
ious or who was an orphan or who had
a widowed mother or a father who was
wholly disabled to be employed in the
mills during June, July and August.
Some of the superintendents think that
the old exemption still exists and are
writing to the commissioner for permit
blanks.
the time of planting and use 200
pounds as a * side application. This
formula should be well adapted for
Whatley’s Prolific corn on land of the
character mentioned in your letter. We
think you have spaced your crop about
right. •
The formula you propose to use on
cotton is a good one, and 100 pounds
of nitrate of soda as a top dressing
should supply the crop fairly well with
the plant food required to secure a
good yield. Os course, you know the
yield depends very much on seasonal
conditions.
By all means plant peanuts. They
will furnish an excellent grazing crop
for your hogs in the fall, and you can
finish them off advantageously by
feeding for one or two weeks on corn.
Chufas and soy beans are also good
for hogs. Following the oats with
German millet is all right, though we
would prefer to use peas and a little
sorghum for hay, as the millet ma
tures before the peas, whereas, the
sorghum and peas may be cut together
with advantage.

SULPHATE OB’ AMMONIA.
A. P. A., Bowman, Ga., writes: Will
sulphate of ammonia answer for top
dressing mixed with nitrate of soda,
and also what per cent of nitrogen
does sulphate of ammonia carry?
Sulphate of ammonia will answer
very well for top dressings, but is like
ly to give its best results in those soils
which contain a considerable quantity
of lime. It is claimed by many that
the various plants cultivated on the
farm can take up nitrogen in the form
of ammonia as rapidly as in the nitrate
form. The nitrogen in sulphate of
ammounia is quickly converted into
but whether it be true that
it be taken up directly into this form
or not, it is shortly transformed into
nitrate, or the same condition as the
nitrogen in nitrate of soda. As you
no doubt know, the nitrogen in ni
trate of soda is almost immediately
available to plants, for as soon as it
comes in contact with sufficient mois
ture in the soil to dissolve it the ni
trogen is there to serve the needs of
the plant. If you have used nitrate
of soda as a top dressing, you have
no. cloubt .nptjced. a quick response
which plants inake to its application.
In a rather dry season nitrate of soda
would probablj) be "better used" for top
dressing than sulphate of ammonia. In
a wet season the chances are that sul
phate of ammonia will give you as
good or possibly bettei - results since
it is not so likely to he leached out
of the soil as the nitrate. If we were
using these materials for top dress
ing, we would be disposed to apply the
sulphate of ammonia first and the ni
trate of soda two weeks later. Two
light applications of these materials
will be bettef than a larger applica
tion of one or both together.

DALTON ELK CANDIDATES
RIDE IN CONVICT CAGE
DALTON, Ga., May 22.—Hauled
through the streets of the city in a
mammoth convict cage driven by a man
in stripes and to Which were hitched
four oxen, a score of young men of the
city got their first insight of a genuine
Elk initiation Tuesday night.
Fastened to the cage were streamers
bearing the words. "We "Want to Be
Elks,” and "Don’t Feed the Animals.”
and the cage was made the more con
spicuous by a number of red fusees and
a large bell on top of the cage. Hun
dreds of people were on the streets to
witness the "open air performance.”
The Chattanooga degree team, twenty
strong, came through the country in au
tomobiles to put on the initiation, and
the inside work was turned over to
them.
Following the unique parade, the cage
was stopped in front of the Elk club
rooms, where the neophytes were fed
sandwiches through the cage bars.
The initiation of Monday night
bft>ught the membership of Dalton lodge
No. 1(267, B. P. O. E.. up to sixty, and
included in the membership are many
of the city’s foremost men.
