FERTILIZATION OF SUGAR CANE
A correspondent. Savannah, Ga.,
*vrites: We have a friend in Cuba who
wishes some information in regard to
the proper fertilization of sugar cane.
He has been using a 12-8-8, but is of
the opinion that h e has not been get
ting a sufficient amount of sugar to
the ton of cane. Our idea is that he
has been using too much ammonia and
that a 10-4-4 or a 12-4-4 would give
better results. Which do you think
is better, sulphate or muriate of pot
ash?
a month to six weeks after planting will
often prove helpful.

-PLANTING BERMUDA GRASS.
\v. D. T., Meeks, Ga., writes: I want
to sow about two acres in Bermuda for
summer pasture, and want to know how
the land should be prepared in the
most economical manner. When should
the seed be sown and can I get it for
grazing next summer?
The fertilization of sugar can e Is a
very important matter, judging from
what we know of this subject. Just
what the best formula to recommend
may be is a matter of more or less con
jecture, as the fertilizer application ad
vised will naturally vary with the soil
and seasonal conditions met with. Quite
extensive tests in the fertilization of j
sugar cane made in the southern part
of the state on sandy lands would in
dicate that a formula containing about 8
per cent of phosphoric acid, 4.5 per cent
of nitrogen and 4.5 per cent of potash,
gave the best results. Probably the
sugar soils of Cuba ar e much richer
than thost of southern Georgia, and if
they are of a loamy or alluvial type
they will run higher in nitrogen than
some other of the essential plant food
constituents. We are inclined to think
that you are right, therefore, in your
conclusion that your correspondent is
using a formula too high in all the es
sential elements. We are disposed to
think that about an 8-4-4 or a 10-4-4
would likely give him the best results.
We think this formula should b e ap
plied at the rate of 1,000 to 1,200 pounds
per acre, depending on how long the
soil has been devoted to the cultiva
tion of Sugar cane and the yield now
obtained. A variety of formulas might
be used with advantage. We believe
blood and sulphate of ammonia would
furnish the nitrogen needed in an ad
mirable form. It would seem from a
number .of experiments made recently
that it makes comparatively littl e dif
ference whether sulphate or muriate of
potash is selected. It is probably best
to supply a part of the nitrogen in an
organic form so that it will become
rather more slowly available than in
nitrate of soda.

PREPARATION OF LAND FOR
SWEET POTATOES.
R. O. P., Cornelia, Ga., writes: I am
going to plant sweet potatoes this year,
and would like to know the best fertil
izer for them and how and when to
apply it.
Sweet potatoes do not require as rich
soils as some other crops. A well fer
tilized sandy loam is ideal for the pota
to, though the ground should not con
tain an excess of organic matter. Good
drainage is essential, and where this
does not exist artificial drainage should
be provided. On soils that are quite de
void of vegetable matter an application
of ten tons of well rotted yard manure
will be beneficial. This might be applied
under the drill row before the beds are
made for the potatoes. The yard manure
should be well mixed with the soil by
means of a bull tongue. Apply from 600
to 900 pounds of the following formula:
1,000 pounds of acid phosphate, 240
pounds of nitrate of soda, 600 pounds of
cotton seed meal and 300 pounds of mu
riate of potash. This mixture will con
tain about 3.71 per cent of nitrogen, 8.1
per cent of phosphoric acid and '7.61
per cent of potash. The fertilizer should
be mixed with the manure and subsoil
before the bedding is done for the po
tatoes. Side applications we hardly
think likely to prove satisfactory with
this crop. As much as forty pounds of
nitrate of soda may sometiihes be used
as a top dressing. This should be put
on shortly after the plants become well
established and should be scattered over
the surface alongside the drill row. It
should not be put on when the plants
are wet, and should not touch the leaves.
A second application of nitrate of soda
Bermuda grass may be established
from seed or sets. In any event it would
be well to plow the land and work down
with the disk and harrow until a fine
and Arable seed bed has been obtained.
Many persons make the mistake in be
lieving that because Bermuda is an un
usually hardy and virile grass that it is
not worth while to prepare the land well
before planting it, and especially is this
true if they desire to secure a sod which
will cover the ground completely in a
comparatively short period of time.
There is much uncertainty as to quality
of the Bermuda grass seed which you
can secure. Some of it germinates quite
readily, and I have seen a number of
stands established from seed which were
very satisfactory. The seed should not
be sown until the ground is warm, say
in late April or the early part of May.
Broadcast it as any other grass seed and
cover with a harrow. It takes consid
erable time for it to germinate, and
therefore you must exercise patience in
waiting for its development.
Where one desires to secure a pasture
at the earliest possible date, we would
suggest that you secure a quantity of
the sets and cut them in pieces about
two inches square and scatter rather
thickly oyer the ground. Work into the
surface with a roller and let the grass
be until it makes a good start. Then
a light harrowing will often be helpful.
For Bermuda grass we believe you will
find it advisable to sweeten the soil if
it is acid by an application of a ton of
the raw rock and apply as much as 500
pounds of bone meal. The sets put out
in early May in rows twenty-four inches
apart and eighteen inches in the drill
have made us excellent pastures in the
course of ninety days.
* * *
PREPARING FOR 10-3-5 FORMULA.
A subscriber, Molena, Ga., writes:
Would like to know what you think of
the following formula to make a 10-3-5
fertilizer: 1,200 pounds of 16 per cent
acid phosphate, 400 pounds of cotton
seed meal, 300 pounds of fish scrap,
200 pounds of muriate of potash and
100 pounds of nitrate of soda. Will a
drag tooth harrow be good to use on
land which gets hard? Will it pay me
to buy a good weeder for working over
young crops? I am just beginning to
farm and do not want to buy something
I do not need.
As you do not give the percentage
composition of the cotton seed meal or
fish scrap you expect to use, it is im
possible for us to say offhand whether
the formula you have outlined will work
out a 10-3-5 or not. No doubt you have
taken the guaranteed composition into
consideration and have done the figur
ing accurately and you can therefore
safely depend on the results obtained.
There is no reason why the proportions
of the various ingredients mentioned in
your letter should not be mixed to
gether and used as the basis of a fer
tilizer for corn and cotton. You have
derived the greater part of your nitro
gen from organic sources, but we think
you have used a sufficient amount of
quickly available nitrogen in an organic
form to meet the needs of the crop
during its early stages of development.
We believe an application Of 300 to 500
pounds per acre of this formula will
prove advantageous on ordinary farm
lands.
We are inclined to think that a good
strong draw tooth harrow will be found
a serviceable and valuable implement
on every farm. The weeder is hardly
stout enough to break the crust with, es
pecially on clay lands which have been
cultivated for a good long while, and
are therefore low in the supply of or
ganic matter. From the cut inclosed the
drag harrow referred to would appear
to possess the desirable qualities which
one would look for in an implement of
this type. On land which contains a
considerable amount of organic matter
and which is in a good state of cultiva
tion, a weeder can often be used to
advantage, especially for stirring the
ground and destroying young 'Weeds be
fore they become well established. We
have found it advisable to secure an
extra heavy type^of weeder. The first
implements put on the market were too
light in their construction to be as serv
iceable as they should have been. We
think it important to emphasize this
point so you w r ill not make a mistake
in buying one of the lighter types of
weeders which were so extensively sold
a few years ago and which did not give
satisfaction on many farms for the rea
sons indicated.

SUGGESTIONS ON FARM PRACTICE
1913.
J. P. H.. Baxley, Ga., writes: Would
like to ask' what you think would be
the best thing for the farmers of this
section to give their attention to for
the coming year. Also what character
of -fertilizer will be best for our soils
here? What is your opinion of gasoline
engines? We also want some informa
tion in regard to forming boys’ corn
clubs, and what to do to have a farmers’
Institute. What breed of, hog do you
think is best for this section?
THE FARMER’S RELATION
10 THE COST OF LIVING
The Growing Population Has
Overtaken Food Supply
Says Prof, Davenport
In an address in which he discussed
the future of food supplies, Prof. Da
venport, of* the University of Illinois,
during the course of his remarks, mad.-
this assertion:
“Anyway you can figure it, we are
near ' the end of cheap food in this
country, which means that the popula
tion is beginning to overtake the food
supply. We can increase production
yet many fold by means of better
methods, more intensive practice and
the requisition of undeveloped areas,
but the best land has been developed,
its fertility has been more or less de?
pleted. and some of it has already been
abandoned.”
The question of food supplies is a

Peaches take more Potash
from the soil than any other fruit crop.
It has been conclusively proven that flavor and
shipping quality are not secured unless there is an
adequate supply of
POTASH
The best growers use from ioo to 200 pounds of Muriate of Potash
annually on their orchards in addition to the phosphate. The applica
tion of mineral fertilizers should begin when the trees are planted, so as
to insure strong wood and early bearing, continuous fruiting and
longer bearing period.
Most peach orchards starve to death at a time when they should
be giving their very best returns. Feed them a bal
anced ration and reap the profits.
If the farmers of your section of the
state will diversify their crops and start
a rotation system, they will make the
greatest single step forward which it is
possible for them to undertake luring
the year 1913. The farmer should live
within himself or practically so. It is
useless for him to devote fifty arces to
cotton and take the returns from this
crop to buy corn, meat, vegetables, truck
and fruit which he should produce at
home for the sustenance. of his family.
Our country can never be made per
manently prosperous until it produces
its own food supplies. Therefore, the
things to emphasize are crop rotations
and diversification. The farmers in the
vicinity of Baxley can grow with suc
cess all the corn they need and an abun
dance of cotton for a surplus crop. They
should grow grain in the form of winter
oats to be followed by hay crop such as
cowpeas or soy beans for the enrich
ment of the soil and for the production
of grain and hay available to sell and 1
for the nutrition of live stock as well.
Every farmer should devote a section of
his land to the production of grazing
crops and hogs. Some of the crops
which should be used for this purpose
are winter oats, spring sown oats, cow-
peas and soy beans planted in succes
sion, peanuts and artichokes. The lands
in your section require rather liberal
fertilization and the per cent of phos
phorus used in the formula should be
emphasized rather strongly. We believe
find about a 9-3-4 a good formula to
that for ordinary farm crops you will
use. Where One desires to make an
extra yield, or whefe corn is to be
grown, a little heavier fertilization will
likely prove profitable, and we would
suggest a 10JB.5-5. For cowpeas and
other legumes use about a 10-0-4. For
truck crops high fertilization is neces
sary and the per cent of nitrogen and
potash should be increased. The farmer
should not have to purchase or use as
much fertilizer as he is now applying.
He can overcome this difficulty by rotat- |
ing his crops and by turning under a
green leguminous crop on his soil once
in every three years. This will add the
needed vegetable matter and will im
prove the physical condition of the land
as well and enable him to secure a great
deal of nitrogen he requires from the
air. If he feeds all the rough litter
produced on* his farm he will have a
considerable store of yard manure ea-ch
year to apply to his land.
• * *
Gasoline engines are now made of
varying sizes which not only prove sat
isfactory for grinding purposes, but for
shredding stover and supplying power
for almost any purpose for which it is
needed on the farm. On the large, lev
el tracts of land found in south Geor
gia the oil-pull tractors can be used
for plowing. One must have a large
area of land, however, before he can af
ford to purchase one of these imple
ments. Our experience with the gaso
line engine has been very satisfactory,
though they do not generate the same
relative degree of power probably as
one obtains from steam engines of the
same rating as to horsepower.
We think the two-horse cultivator
'for corn and cotton is practical in your
section and that it wil result in a great
saving of labor. You will also find a
disk plow and the larger types of har
rows which require from three to four
mules to pull them a good investment.
Boys’ corn clubs may be formed with
out difficulty in your county. If you
will get in touch with the county su
perintendent of instruction and ask
him to apply tp the college for bulle
tins containing the rules and regula
tions for the organization of this work,
your county may have one of the best
corn clubs in the state next year pro
vided, of course, that it receives proper
local encouragement and support.
There are several good breeds of hogs
adapted to Georgia, but as pork can be
made cheaper in this state on grazing
crops than in any other way, we are
disposed to think you will find the
Berkshire or Tamworth the most sat
isfactory. The Tamworth is a breed
of red hogs and they are prolific and
excellent grazers. We have found
both the Berkshire and Tamworth very
satisfactory. W^e think these breeds
more likely to prove desirable in Geor
gia than hogs which lay on an unusual
amount of fat and require a consid
erable amount of corn for their proper
finishing.
Farmers’ institutes are held general
ly during the summer months in Geor
gia. The work is in charge of the col
lege. If you will write to us early in
June next year, we will be glad to give
you a date. We hope to hold some ex
tension schools early this spring in
various parts of the state. If your
farmers are interested in this matter
we would be glad to have you discuss
the proposition with them, and write
us, as we are now making arrangements
to hold from two to four days’ meet
ings in various localities. We require
the local community to furnish a hall
and heat and light it free of cost, as
sist in advertising the meeting and
working up an interest throughout the
rural community.

CORN RAISING IN ALABAMA.
E. H. S., Robertsdale, Ala, writes:
My land is gray sandy loam with red
sand and clay subsoil. My principal crop
will be corn and I want to use a fer
tilizer composed of cotton seed meal
and 16 per cent acid phosphate and
want to know what proportions of each
to use. What additional ingredients are
necessary to make a complete ferti
lizer? When is the best time to plant
velvet beans and peanuts in the corn
field, and how much fertilizer should be
used?
Thfs formula when used in the propor
tions mentioned above should answer
well for corn or cotton on the land
described in your letter. We would
use 600 pounds under the corn and
about 400 pounds under the cotton, say
putting 300 pounds under the drill row
at the time of planting the cotton, and
400 pounds under the corn, and using
the balance as a side application as
seasonal conditions and th e development
of the crop seem to indicate as de
sirable.
Velvet beans may be planted any
time after danger of frost is past. The
earlier they are planted the more near
ly will they come to maturity before
frost falls. They are a long season
crop and will only mature satisfactory
crops of grain in southern Alabama,
Georgia and Florida. They arc an ex
cellent soil improving crop, however.
Peanuts may also be planted any time
after danger of frost is past. We
would always prefer to put this crop in
by itself rather than to plant it in
between th e rows of corn. For legu
minous crops it is only desirable to use
a 10-4 mixture, as they require consid
erable amounts of phosphoric acid and
potash. They are able/ to gather most
of the nitrogen they need from the
air, especially on soils where the bac
teria which live in the nodules on their
roots are found in abundance. If these
do not form the leguminous crop will
b e sickly in appearance and will need
some stimulation through the use ’of
commercial nitrogen. Often where these
crops do not do well the soil is acid,
and should be sweetened by an appli
cation of on e ton of raw ground rock
rurining high in carbonate of lime. We
would think an application of from 300
to 400 pounds of a 10-4 formula about
right for leguminous crops on the av
erage sandy loam soils of your state.
theme of world-wide interest. “Cheap”
living has been one of the hall marks
of American civilization up to this
time, for the reason that the primary
food supply was grown comparatively
without cost. But of late years it has
mounted higher and higher until now
it is engaging the thought of the best
minds of the country. Prof. Daven
port is of the opinion that we have
reached, or at least are nearing, the
end of cheap food. He assumes that
the population has overtaken the sup
ply. And this appears to be true. The
real fact is that food products ,or
rather the manner of growing them,
has been and is a source of prodig
ious wastefulness. Already this coun
try has rioted in its natural resources
until the far-seeing ones are calling
loudly for a halt in our extravagance.
Forests have been devastated ruth
lessly and without reason. In .the mad
struggle for wealth the farmer has
wasted his substance, depleted the
soil and robbed it -without putting
anything back.
The wise agriculturist has already be
gun the practice of Intensive farming.
He tries to put back what he takes out,
and thus keep his capital stock at its
maximum. While the present conditions
need occasion but slight alarm fdr the
present generation, yet it means that
the old pioneer type of farming is done
forever with the people who had little
labor and small capital to work over
abundant lands. There must be, and
will be, new methods employed to bring
the best out of the soil and at the same-
tune put back into it an amount equal
to what is taken therefrom.
In addition to this, the world's pop
ulation must be willing to pay more
for what it wants. It is indeed true
that the farming interests have not
always been sufficiently remunerated for
their products. We believe the end has
been seen in this regard. Higher prices
will prevail for all farm products. The
people who want more bread, more meat
and provisions of other classes, will
have to pay a price sufficient to induce
the grower to put forth his best efforts
toward providing such necessities. It
means that the standard of living will
he raised perforce, and that the laborer’s
hire will be worth much more, for he
will have to receive wages in proportion
as his cost of living mounts.—Farm and
