FERTILIZERS FOR
PEACH TREES |
Acid Phosphate has Tenden
cy to Make Fruit Ripen
Earlier.
In the spring of 1913 a block of
Mayflower peach trees were set
at the Georgia Experiment Sta-1
tion, and divided into six plats ol j
eight trees each. From 1913 to
1949, inclusive, the plats were
fertilized as follows.
Plat 1, received 6 lbs of acid
phosphate per tree; plat 2, re
ceived 12 lbs. of acid phosphate ;
per tree, plat 3, received, no fer - 1
tilizer; plat 4, received 6 lbs. of j
acid phosphate and 2 lbs of mu- j
riate of potash per tree; plat 5,
received 6 lbs. of acid phosphate
and 2 lbs. of muriate of potash
per tree; plat 5, received 6 lbs.
acid phosphate, 4 lbs. nitrate of
soda and 2 lbs. of muriate of
potash per tree; plat 6, received
6 lbs. acid phssphate and 4 lbs.
nitrate of soda per tree.
In the spring of 1920 all fer
tilizers and spraying were with
held so as to determine the in
fluence of the fertilizers on the
date of ripening of the fruit and
its susceptibility to the brown
rot. The crop was harvested
June 3rd. The fruit of plats 1
and 2, fertilized with acid phos
phate alone, and that of plat 1,
receiving no fertilizer, was con
siderably riper than the fruit of
the other plats.
The fruit on plats 5 and 6, re
ceiving nitrate of soda in the
fertitlizer mixtures, was the la
test in ripening of the whole
series of plats. The plats ripen
ing fruit earliest showed the
highest per centage of brown rot
infection. However, ripe fruit
being more susceptible to brown
rot than green fruit, we vvouid
expect a greater percentage of
brown rot on the fruit of the
trees showing the greatest de
gree of ripeness.
From the data in hand it would
seem that acid phosphate has a
slight tendency to hasten the
ripening of peaches, while nitrate
of soda has a decided tendency
toward retarding the ripening
period. H. P. Stuckey,

THE UNIVERSAL CAR
During all the years the Ford Model T One Ton Truck has been on the mar
ket, we have never had one complaint of rear axle trouble. We have had no
complaints of motor trouble. As the motor and the rear axle are the vital funda
mentals in a motor truck, we have the right to conclude that the Ford One Ton
Truck has not only met the demands of business, but has done so in a satisfactory
and economic way. There is no other evidence so convincing as that which
comes from long practical experience. Ford One Ton Trucks are serving along
all industrial and commercial lines. You will find them everywhere. If these
statements were not facts, the demand for the Ford One Ton Truck would not
be as large as it is, because people are not buying trucks which do not give
service. Coupled with the dependability of the Ford One Ton Truck in all classes
of usage, comes the economy in operation and maintenance. On the farm, in
factory delivery, for the merchant, manufacturer, and contractor, in these days
of modern business methods, this worm-driven One Ton Ford Truck has become
an actual necessity. Come in and talk it over.
