SOFT ritOSrilATt.
I am continually in receipt of o!rc«
lar . r dating to sou phosphate. Do you
r- gard it highly as it plant foal, and
would >uu advise its uso?
L. Al. T., Blakeley.
The department has received many
inquiries on this subject, and shortly
after the question as to the valne of
soft phosphates was first raised ail ar
ticle appeared in these reports by Dr.
Payne on their value as shown by ana
lysis. Since that time tho question ha:,
been experimentally investigated at a
number of the stations, but with such
varying results as to prevent definite
conclusions. From them it would seem
that it would be difficult as yet to de
termine the comparative value between
it and acid phosphate, or to lay down
general rulos as to tho advisability of
its use.
Other scientific questions have also
entered the discussion, the principal of
which is tho solubility of soft phos
phates in the acids of tho soils and the
effeot of an abundant supply of humus
or organic matter in rendering them
available.
These questions are matters to ba de
termined by careful experiments, and
will govern, to a large extent, the use
of this class of fertilizers and the char
acter of soil on which they should be
applied. To determine the oifect of or
ganic matter on natural phosphate the
Alabama station at Auburn conducted
a series of experiments in which soft
phosphatos were placed with cottonseed
meal and fermentation and decay al
lowed to take place.
In order to ascertain whether in tho
chemical action or c' ange taking place
In the organic matter the insoluble
phosphates wero rendered available,
analysis wero ma le to find the amount
of available phosphoric acid at differ
ent periods and stages of the fermenta
tion and decay until the conclusion of
the experiment. These analysis showed
comparatively no increase in the amount
of available phosphoric acid from the
action of the meal. They indicate,
so far as the phosphorio acid of natural
phosphates becoming available in tho
soil is concerned, that it is immaterial
whether it is used with material con
taining orgnnie matter, or whether as
so this particular feature of its use the
land is well supplio l with organic mat
ter or not.
It would seem, however, that prac
tical experience indicates that
natural phosphates oan be used much
more successfully where the land is
supplied with an abundance of humus.
For example, Charleston floats have
been used with beneficial results in
Virginia where clover sod has been
turned under, and so universally has
this been noted by the farmers of that
state that they are ordinarily used only
where vegetable matter has been sup
plied, or upon sod soon to be turned
under.
In considering the nse of any fertil
izer, the results to be obtained are of
paramount importance, and especially
is this true of a slow noting fertilizer,
such as the soft phosphates. Usually
we apply chemical fertilizers for pres
ent results, and it has been the policy
of the department in estimating the
commercial worth of any fertilizer to
be governed alone by the actual avail
able plant food present without regard
to what may become slowly available.
We are unable to see in immediate re
sults how natural phosphates can equal
the available. As to how far they do
become available remains to be deter
mined.
MUCK.
Will it pay to have swamp muck a
shortdistance to place on land? What
purpose does it serve and what plant
food supply?
S. O. M., Cobb County.
Tho purpose that muck serves and the
plant food it supplies governs the ques
tion as to how far it can be hauled and
pay on the farm. It is also seen that
the object in view and the other mate
rial that is at the command of tho farm
er to serve the same purpose is to be
considered. First, os to the amount of
plant food directly contributed to the
soil by swamp mud or peat. It is easily
seen that found as it is under varying
circumstances, that the amount of ni
trogen, the direct plant food it contains
must vary very greatly.
In SO samples of peat, of all sorts and
kinds analyzed at the Yale labaratory,
under the direction of Professor John
son, the proportion of nitrogen varied
from .4. of 1 per cent to 2.9. per cent.
With such wide divulgence in tho ac
tual plant foot!, if that is principally
sought instead of the organic matter, it
is necessary to have an analysis or ex
periment before very intelligent action
can be taken. It is well to note also
that by far the greater part of the nitro
gen found in muck is insoluble and
inert considered as an immediate source
of plant food. When exposed to the
air, however, or mixed with any ordin
ary soil it slowly undergoes a change
and gradually becomes available, as
bone meal would do under similar condi
tions.
It is frequently termed acid when first
taken from the bog, which is in reality
the presence of antiseptic matter. This
antiseptic or gcrmecide quality will
hinder nitrification and is injurious. To
correct this the muck should be exposed
to the air for some months before using
and when not acid this exposure rids it
of the groat quantity of water it con
tains and renders it mellow and friable

its benefit until the second year, and it

COMPOSTING.
On account of its power to absorb
ammonia and prevent its loss, muck is
excellent for composting, even when it
contains onl" a small percentage of ni
trogen. Tins is due to the presence of
humic acid, h ghly effective agent in
absorbing ammonia.
Storer, in his Agriculture, states that
Professor Johnson found that a swamp
muck from the neighborhood of New
Haven was capable of absorbing 1.3 per
cent of ammonia, while ordinary soil
absorbed only 0.1 to 0.5 per cent.
For the same reason, as a litter for
farm animals, nothing is as excellent
as an absoyl nt as dried muck. And in
a large number of experiments nothing
showed as high absorbing qualities as
the better class of peats.
Taken altogether, onr conclusions are
that you can use tho muck alone to sup
ply organic matter and perhaps nitro
gen. (Jonipost it or use it as a litter for
yonr stables advantageously if you have
no groat distance to haul it.
MULCHING.
What is meant by the term mulching ?
1 understand its ordinary meaning, hut
think it must, embrace more than I have
contemplated. What object does it ac
complish? R. A. S., Statesboro.
Anything placed upon the surface of
the soil to deter the evaporation of
surface water is a mulch. It may con
sist of leaves, straw, chips, spent tan
nark, sawdust, old beards, fiat stones
or stable chaff or manure, tho latter
serving a double pnrpo.se.
The good accomplished in the reten
tion of moisture is significantly shown
by the condition of the earth beneath
any old logs or stones in the field. Here
ev.m in a dry season you find the soil
moist and usually in good tilth. A
mulch also prevents the soil from be
coming encrusted after hard raini.
RASPBERRY CUTTINGS.
Will raspberries be grown success
fully from cuttings? B. O. H.
Decatur.
Only a few varieties of raspberries
can be successfully grown upon wood
cuttings. Si'.ne of the black varieties
will succeed if the cuttings are made
early in the fall. Green wood cuttings
are, however, grown very readily by
the usual process used in multiplying
grapes. As the fruit is so much easier
propagated in other ways, we would
not recommend the use of cuttings of
the class you evidently intend. Roots
and root cuttings is the best method, as
all bnt one species and its varieties
have underground stems, which being
cut. into small pieces will produce
plants readily which will prove more
vigorous.
ASPARAGUS.
Please tell xno how to prepare an as
paragus bed. How deep to plant the
roots, how to manure, etc.
L. O. T., Hampton.
Select for your asparagus bed a light
sandy loam, two feet deep and perfect
ly drained, is the most suitable.
If yon have no soil of this description,
nse the most friable soil at your com
mand; cover the bod six inches with
rich, well rotted manure, and trench
into the soil to the depth of two feat,
as in a few y ars tho roots will reach to
that depth. In the spring set the roots
in their natural position four inches
deep and two feet apart. As a rulo, so
groat a distance is not given, and if im
practicable oil account of*limited space,
givo them as much room as possible, as
when tho bed is thoroughly established
two feet will not be found too great.
During the summer water liberally with
liquid manure. In the winter, cut down
tho stems and cover with a dressing of
manure. In the spring fill this in with
salt.
A COMPOST FORMULA.
The following formula is being sold
by farm rights in my section for $5.00;
Saltpeter, 2 pounds; blnestone, 2 pounds;
soda ash, 2 pounds; nitrate ammonia,
2 pounds; potash, 4 pounds; ashes, un
leaclied, 50 pounds; salt, 5 pounds,
lime, 5 pounds. It is recommended to
bo used In composting, and in this way
to make a fertilizer equal, ton for ton,
to a regular fertilizer. When to be used
under corn, it is said that lime can be
substituted in the place of thq ashes.
Would you recommend its purchase?
And is it a good formula?
H. A. M.,’ Coweta.
We do not advise the purchase of
farm rights of any patent formula. The
departments instituted by the govern
ment and the state will gladly furnish
formula for any particular purpose,
which embody the consensus of experi
mental and scientific investigation in
that line of fertilization. At this, th*
Georgia department, we will gladly
furnish special or general formula free
of charge.
As to the merits of the particular for
mula yon give, will say that it is de
j fective. The nitrate of ammonia is ev
idently intended to supply ammonia,
but the effect of composting it with
lime and nnleached ashes would cause
its loss. The caustic properties of the
unleaehed ashes and lime would also
cause the loss of the ammonia in the
stable manure with which it compost
ed. When we note that ammonia is the
most costly plant food which the farmer
has to supply, it is well for him to exer
cise due care that it is not lost. Cer
tainly he should not nse such ingred
ients which, upon being composted,
causes it to escape. The salt is beneficial
for its mechanic effect, and at times it
is well to nse some in composting. Blue
stone serves as an insecticide, and is
needed under certain conditions.
No reason could offer itself for substi
tuting lime for ashes when the compost
is to be used under corn.
