Very Intereet ing Me we Which Will Be

DEPARTMENT OP AGRICULTURE,
Atlanta, March 1, 1895.
Question 1. —1 notice that you advise
farmers, in mixing fertilizers at home,
to avoid putting together ingredients
that act lnjarioudy on each other.
Uloa-ie give me a few hints as a guide in
home mixing.
Answer I.—Tho following aro soma
of the main points:
Potash salts can bo be mixed with all
fertilizers, but if largo amounts are
mixed with soma mineral manures, as
floats, the mixture may cake, if allowed
to stand too long. This can be avoided
by adding a small quantity of woods
earth, muck or sawdust when the mix
ture is made, Acid phosphates should
not bo mixed with lime, marl, ashes,
floats, bone meal or anything that con
tains carbonate of liine or caustic lime.
Ammonia salts, or organic nitrogen
compounds, os blood, tankage or fish
should not bo mixed with caustic sub
stances, such as building limo or wood
ashes. Nor is it well, unless wo wish
to hasten decomposition, to mix these
nitrogen compounds with carbonate of
lime, floats or marL If we wish to com
post those substances together, wo
should cover tho heaps with woods
earth, which will prevent tho escape of
tho ammonia.
Acid phosphatas can be mixed with
organic matter and are especially fitted
for preventing tho loss of ammonia in
compost heaps, unless the heaps con
tain a large quantity of lime,when they
should not be usod.
Nitrate of soda can be mixed with all
other materials, but when mixed with
highly dissolved phosphates and nit
rates and organic matter, the mixture
should be kept dry, or loss of nitrogen
will occur.
In composting, it is of the greatest
importance that the ammonia does not
escape. Acid phosphates, as mentioned
above, help to conserve the ammonia.
The compost heaps should be kept cov
ered with earth and under shelter.
Largo amounts of potash salts mixed
with compost aro desirable only where
decomposition is to be retarded.
Nitrogen is the most costly eloment
of plant food, and to its injudicious aud
extravagant uso can bo tracod much of
the loss from the use of fertilizers. By
plantiug clover aud peas, which have
the power of absorbing nitrogen from
the air, the expense may be much re
duced.
Phosphoric acid and potash must be
added to our soils if a full crop is ex
pected. It is trno that they are present
in all soils, but are insoluble, and there
fore unavailable. Small quantities on
ly aro dissolved by the soil water and
plant acids.
It is best to apply both phosphoric
acid and potash some time before a crop
is planted. As there is little danger
from leashing, they should bo plowed
under. Sandy and limestone soils
nearly always need potash. Clay soils
sometimes, but not always, contain a
sufficient quantity. This can only be
determined by experiment.
Kainit is tho proper form of potash for
»andy soils, muriate and sulphate of
potash for stiff soils. Potash is espe
cially valuable for fruits and vegetables
of all kinds, tobacco and potatoes.
Nitrogen should bo applied at the
time most needed by tho plants during
the growing season as a top dressing,
! otherwise it will leach out with tho soil
water.
Question 3.—What is the proper
treatment for "hollow horn?”
Answer 3.—This is n much misun
derstood subject. The old plan of bor
ing the horns and pouring in turpon
tine should not lie thought of. Ex
amine the animal for other derange
ments of the system. The horn is to a
certain extent naturally hollow, and
this is no indication of disease. An ex
perienced cattleman says that the
tonguo is the seat of the disease, and in
nine cases out of ton, when an animal
is supposed to bo suffering from “hol
low horn,” if the tonguo is pulled out
over the under lip it will bo found to be
filled with little black heads and flesh
worms, which will rise above the sur
face. Take a dull knife and scrape
these off gently, then put on salt and
black pepper, mixed, this will bring up
the saliva, aud in a few hours the trou
ble will bo ovor. He says ho lias never
known the remedy to fail. Of course
the animal’s head must be secured to a
tree or post before it can be treated. A
great mauy cattle owners advocate de
horning, not to prevent "hollow horn.”
but to reduce the number of injuries
from goring among the herds, as well
as to the persons having charge of
them.
Question 3—Would yon advise the
sowing of a third crop of oats at this
season, tho first two plantings having
been killed by the cold weather?
Answer 3.—We answer unequivo
cally yes, even as late as the middle of
March. But there are several points to
Are you all died out, do you have
that tired teeling or siek headache ?
You can be relieved of all these by tak

be considered and rnot in the late sow
ings, which do not apply with eqnal
force to the fall aud earlier spring
crops. In the first place, a quickly ma
turing seed should be s dec ted, the land
should b ) good, the preparations and
manuring thorough, the seeding heavy.
The importance of each of these points
will be appreciated when we realize
that the pi nits have only a short time
in which to develop, or to hunt for
food, and therefore every aid should bj
given to hasten and perfect their ma
turity. The land in which tho former
crops were killed is, if it was well pre
pared, in splendid condition to receive
tho third Kow.ng, which, with the for
tiliz r, should be put in at ouce.
Qt estton 4.—ln feeding horses, will
the results as a food, pay for cutting it
up instead of feeding it uncut?
B. F. L., Emmerson.
Answer 4.—We are often very dire
lect in our duty to our work animals,
and thus incur absolute loss. This is
true not only in regard to providing
proper shelter, but largely in our meth
ods of feeding. In the north and west
almost the universal custom is to feed
cut hay, ami the small amount of labor
required is more than compensated for
by the effect upon the animal. As an
illustration of this, the experiment sta
tion in Utah from the tenth of August
to the twenty-first of December fed, ad
libitum, to two lots of work horses, cut
and uncut hay, reducing the lots in tho
middle of the period. The result was
that in the first period the lot fed on
cut hay gained 99 pounds, and that on
the uncut 02 pounds; in the second pe
riod the lot on cut hay gained 75 pounds
aud that on uncut lost five pounds. At
no time in our history has the study
and adoption of proper methods beon
more imperative. Let us adopt every
detail of firm economy that husbands
the strength of our farm animals, or
improves the condition of our soil.
HOME FERTILIZERS.
The Formula for Mixing: as Given by tho
Georgia Statu Cheniiit.
It has always been the policy of the
department to encourage the purchase
of fertilizer material and mixing at
home. By this policy not only does tho
farmer mako a fertilizer adapted to his
soil, if, as he should, ho studies its
needs, but also develops the economy of
carefully saving the manure of the
farm.
Compelled to savo in every quarter,
if we wish even comparative success,
let all endeavor to adopt the least ex
pensive method of fertilizing and im
proving this laud. In this connection,
the following reply by Dr. George F.
Payne, the state chemist, to an inquiry
for formula and as to the cost of mate
rial, will be found of interest:
Farmers can save money by clubbing
together and buying ncid phosphate in
bulk for ca-h and making their own
fertilizers. .It is difficult to farm suc
cessfully in most sections of Georgia
without tho use of fertilizers, but it is
all important to secure the host fertil
izers at as eloso figures as possible.
Acid phosphate can now be bought in
bulk for cash at $8 CO a ton. Cottonseed
meal can now be bought iu bulk for
oash at |ls 00 a ton. Muriate of pot
ash can now bo bought in 12-ton lots
for cash at $42.00 a ton.
At these figures the materials for an
average fertilizer of tho market will be:
1,400 pounds acid phosphate (contain
ing 14 per cent available phosphoric
acid) at SB.OO a ton, $5.96.
520 pounds cottonseed meal (contain
ing nitrogren equivalent to 8 1-2 per
cent ammonia) at $15.00 a ton, s.‘i 90.
80 pounds muriate of potash (contain
ing 51 1-2 per ceutof potash) at $42.00 a
ton, SI.OB.
Making a total of 2,000 pounds at a
cost of $11.35, containing the following
percentage of plant food per ton:
Available phosphoric acid, 980 per
oent.
Ammonia. 2.21 per cent.
Potash. 2.06 per cent.
If yon desire a full strength goods,
the following formula will prove satis
factory, being made of the materials
you wish to use:
Acid phosphate, 1,200 pounds, cost
about $7.80, 8.40 per cent available
phosphoric acid. Nitrato of soda, 250
pounds, cost, about $5.00, equivalent to
2.37 per cent ammonK. Kainit, 300
pounds, cost about $’..80, 1.80 per cent
potash. Mix mar’, or rotten leaves, 250
pounds. Total pounds, 2,000. Total
cost, $14.60.
If you wish a cheaper fertilizer add
more of the last ingredient. If you de
sire a stronger one leave out the last
ingredient. Muriate of potash is a
more concentrated form of potash than
kainit and costs less for freight and for
the actual potash in it. Kainit con
tains about 13 per oout of potash, and
muriate about 50 per cent.
To estimate the full cost, the freight
on the acid phosphate and muriate of
potash should be added to this, (the
freight will vary according to the length
of the haul) and also the labor required
to mix the fertilizer.
The mixing is best done by spread
ing out the materials in layers
on top of each other and cutting
through the layers with a hoe aud mix
ing as the compound is cut down.
The use of a bricklayer’s sand screen
enables one to make a better mixture.
So many local dealers are reported as
not intending to handle fertilizers this
season, that some such plan may be
necessary in some sections.
Very respectfully,
George F. Payne,
State Chemist

STARCH FACTORIES.
Cun our I*:tr;n<*r« •* U;»j>sy t'i«* Klattriui,
A<tks iir. i'ayata.
Dr. Goorgfc F. Payne, our well known
state chemist, is corresponding with
gome parties who are desirous of locat
ing a starch factory in the sonth. Starch
is largely used in cotton cloth manu
facture and Georgia is rich in starch
producing materials. Dr. Payne is do
girous of getting information and re
quests the farmers’ attention to the
matter.
“1. Factories in the west and north
secure Irish potatoes at la cents per
bushel of OB pounds, and at 20 cents per
bushel for sweet potatoes (00 pounds to
the bushel), giving 1 cent a bushel for
each per cent of starch found in the
material. Can Georgia farmers raiso
Irish potatoes and sweet potatoes at a
profit when taken immediately in large
quantities at these prices?
“2. Would Georgia farmers like fo
take stock in such a factory and pay for
their stock in potatoes?
“8. Has cassava been raised success
fully in Georgia to any extent, or can
it be done? It grows well in Florida.
“4. What is the lowest price at which
rice polish can be contracted for in
large, continuous supplies? Louisiana
is very desirous of securing this factory
and has offered it $5,000 a year for three
years and freedom from state and city
taxes for ten years. To offset this,
however, Georgia has far more cotton
mills and so has the adjacent states,
which will furnish a better market for
the starch.”
