FERTILIZER
Had you ever realized that our INTERESTS were mutual? If there ever was a
time when we should make two ears of corn or two pounds of cotton grow where
only one grew before, it is NOW.
Labor is high and scarce. “Our Motto” should be—
MORE Fertilizer- And a BETTER GRADE of Fertilizer
It’s cheaper than labor. In f?ct, cheaper than anything on the market today.
We have plenty POTASH and this may be the year to use a complete goods. It is
all right to Hooverize at our tables—but we ought to feed the plant a complete ration.
We hope you will be able to get your Nitrate from the government, but if not we
are going to try to furnish you a part of your requirements. We Parted about eight
months ahead of the government, but we haven’t got enough to supply our customers

The trade does not understand or appreciate the difficulties which the manufactur
ers have to contend with now—shortage of cars, labor, etc., and unless you co-operate
with us, both of us are going to be the losers.

DELICIOUS CORN MUFFINS.
Here’s an old fashioned recipe for
corn muffins that has recently been
revived and used with unusual success
In several of the larger New York ho
tels : To make three and a half dozen
muffins take one quart milk, six ounces
butter substitute, twelve ounces of
light syrup or honey, four eggs, pinch
of salt, two ounces baking powder,
one and a half pounds commeal and
one and a half pounds rye flour. The
butter and syrup should be thoroughly
mixed; then add the eggs gradually.
Pour In the milk and add the rye flour
mixed with commeal and baking pow

SPRING OATS USED TO
FURNISH MRLY FEED
Should Be Sown on Good Land
And Fertilized
Many inquiries have reached the
College of Agriculture in regard to the
advisability of sowing spring oats due
to the severe damage done the winter
oat crop by the very cold weather of
the last few months.
Occasionally good yields are obtained
from spring oats, but, as a rule, they
do not pay. If 50 per cent of a stand
is left of the winter oats they will
probably make more than oats seeded
in the spring. From the reports sent
in, there is a fair crop still left in the
southern part of the state, but
throughout the northern part of the
state the stands are very poor or en
tirely killed. This is especially true
with late planted oats.
The use to which the oats are to
be put should determine whether or
not spring oats should be sown. For
example if an early feed Is needed the
oats will make a good crop for this
purpose. This year there is a very
serious shortage of Heed due to the
short crop last year. With this year's
crop severely damaged there will be a
very serious shortage of seed next
fall unless some oats are sown this
spring.
Spring oats should be put on good
land and the fertilizer applied at time
of planting if any is to be used. Oats
seeded with a grain drill will do much
better than when sowed broadcast.
The Fuighum and Burt are probably
the two best varieties for spring seed
ing.—r. R. Childs, State College of
Agriculture.
