Nifrate Of Soda |,
Side Dressings . ;g
Increases Yield
By side dressing corn with 150
to 2006 pounds of nitrate of soda
per acre 40 to 50 days after
planting, Georgia farmers can
increase their corn yields sub
stantially, E. D. Alexander
agronomist of the Agricultural
Extension Service points out.
“To secure the best results
from side dressing, the corn
should have been supplied with
phosphate and potash,” Alexan
der pointed out. “These elements
may be left in the soil l'rnm}
other crops or supplieq as fer-,
tilizer.”
Records kept by farmers and
at the experiment station show
that increases of seven “to nine
bushels of corn per acre can be
ob‘miued froin the use of 10(
pounds of nitrate of soda or its
equivalent per acre, the agrono
mist reported. Applications of a
second 100 pounds per acre will
give good results although not as
large increases as the first 100
pounds.
“With the demand for corn
and the comparatively high price
applications of 150 to 200 pounds
of nitrate of soda or equivalent
are recommended,” Alexander
said. “Where phosphate and pot
ashi have been supplied in liber
al amounts, larger- applications
can be used profitably. R
" “Time of application of the
side dressing is very importani
in securing increased yields,” ‘he
declared. '“The old custom of
applying the side dressing when
corn is waistg high or bunching
to tasse]l does not get the nitro
gen into the soil in time to pro
duce the best results. Test ghow
that the maximum yields are se
cureq when the side dressing is
applied 40 tfo 50 days after
planting, A 0
“There are about 3,50000(
geres of corn in Georgia,” Al
exander pointed out. “Figuring
on the basis of a six bushel in
crease for each 100 pounds of ni
trate of soda or equivalent, 1
each acre could receive at least
100 pounds of side dressing, corn
production in the State eould Jbc
increased about 21,000,00 bushé’s
or about onz-half of the presen
production.”

Proper Confrol Of Cotfon Insects
Pays Dividends In Increased Yields
Proper control of cotton in
sects pays good dividends, E. C
Westbrook, cotton specialist for
the Georgia Agricultural Exten
sion Service, declares.
“Good insect control will in
crease yields per acre, lowe:
production costs and produce
greater net income for the grow
er,” Mr. Westbrook *said. “Com
munuities, as well as individual
growers, profit- directly from re
duced insect damage and increas
ed production which means mor:
raoney for every one throughout
the community.”
Georgia’s cotton crop is likely
to be seriously infested. with bol
weevils this season unless there
is a period of weather that is hot
and dry enough to kill large por
tion of the weevils, the cotton
specialist pointed out. Farmer:
should have their dusting equip
men in good shape ang have 1f(
to 15 pounds of calcium arsenatec
on hand for each acre of cotto
to meet extensive boll weevil in
festations.
“Farmers can determine so
sufficient number of weevils in
themselves whether they have
the field to make it necessary or
desirable to apply calcium arsen
ate,” Westbrook declared.
