Few more important questions are
confronting the farmers of Georgia
than how to utilize fertilizers to the
greatest advantage. In attempting to
answer this question tests plats are
being conducted in various parts of
the state and on different types of
soil. Three years’ results have been
obtained.
In south Georgia eleven distinctive
areas are being used and the data has
reference to corn, cotton and oats.
The work with each crop is duplicated
for accuracy of results.
No fertilizer is used on the first
plat. Muriate of potash has been ap
plied on the second plat at the rate
of 100 pounds per acre; acid phos
phate on the third plat at the rate of
400 pounds per acre; nitrogen derived
from dried blood and applied at the
rate of ISO pounds per acre on the
fourth plat; the fifth plat was fertiliz
ed with phosphoric acid and potash;
the sixth plat with nitrogen and pot
ash; the seventh plat with nitrogen
and phosphoric acid; the eighth plat
with nitrogen, phosphoric acid;
and potash, making a com
pleter fertilizer; the ninth
plat with rock phosphate at the rate
of 3,000 pounds per acre, and the
tenth plat with rock phosphate and
potash.
Observe that the complete fertilizer
consisted of 100 pounds of muriate of
potash, 400 pounds of acid phosphate
and ISO pounds of dried blood, making
in all a gross application of 080 pounds
per acre.
Comparatively little benefit has
been obtained from the use of potash
alone. Phosphoric acid alone has
been uncertain in its performance and
used independently would not have
paid a profit on the application. Ni
trogen alone has also been erratic,
though it gave better results on corn,
oats and cotton than any other single
application, and would In most In
stances have more than paid for itself,
When phosphoric acid and potash
were combined belter results were ob
tained than where they were used
separately. An increase of as much
ns 153 pounds of cotton per acre re
sulted front this combination. When
nitrogen and potash were used to
gether a more distinctive increase was
shown than with any other combina
tion used up to this time.
Where a complete fertilizer was
used no better results were obtained
with corn than with nitrogen and
phosphoric acid. Cotton, however,
showed some Increase from the appli
cation of this fertilizer, amounting ns
an average for all south Georgia to
303 pounds of seed cotton per acre,
and on Tifton sandy loam 204 pounds
per acre. The yield of oats was in
creased from the use of a completer
fertilizer on all the test areas in south
Georgia by 7.22 bushels per acre, and
on Tifton sandy loam by 13 bushels
per acre.
These results would indicate that ni
trogen and phosphorus in the quanti
ties mentioned can be used with prof
it on corn, cotton and oats on the
soil typos in question, and also that a
complete fertilizer can be used with
advantage.
Comparatively little benefit was ob
tained from the use of rock phos
phate or floats with any of the crops
mentioned. This is just what we
might naturally anticipate, for it has
been pointed out repeatedly I bat
rock phosphate will only prove bene
ficial when applied to soils contain
ing a large amount of vegetable limi
ter.

PLANTING FOR HOME SUPPLIES
Andrew M. Soule, President Georgia State College of
Agriculture.
A garden in Georgia can be made
to provide from one to five kinds of
vegetables for table use for every day
in the year. The surplus of almost
all of these crops can be dried or
canned for winter use. Thus the cost
of feeding the family can be greatly
lessened and a much greater variety
given in the dietary.
The farmer should next direct his at
tention to providing such food as is
necessary for the maintenance, first of
his work stock, then of his cows and
such other cattle beasts as he may
maintain, and for his hogs and poul
try. Two ideas should be kept in
mind in planting areas for these pur
poses. First, provision should be
made for an abundance of hay and
green feed and for a suitable amount
of supplemental grain. The wide
awake farmer who planted cereals
last fall will have enough *oat.s and
other grain to supplement the corn he
may produce this summer. It is de
sirable that each head of work stock
be provided with 100 bushels of corn
or its equivalent. If fifty bushels of
oats have been grown for each head
How Much Potash Is
Needed In Fertilizing Crops?
John R. Fain, Professor Of Agronomy,
Ga. State College Of Agriculture.
Tests have been conducted for
three years on various soil types of
Georgia, which shed some light on
the potash requirements of various
crops. Where potash alone was used
as a fertilizer, no results were ob
tained from corn and oats, but coition
showed a gain of from 50 to 103
pounds of seed cotton per acre. These
tests were made in both north and
south Georgia.
In the experiments 100 pounds of
potash were used per acre. Where
potash was used in combination with
other fertilizer elements, it gave bet
ter results, but not enough to pay
for its application except for cot
ton. ,
Fifteen different areas scattered
over the state were used in making
these tests, and as many different
kinds of soils were n.-eJ as possible
to make the results of general appli
cability to the state.
of live stock, then only fifty bushels
of corn would he required. Figuring
the corn to yield on tho basis of twen
ty-eight bushels to the acre, 2 1-2 to
5 acres of corn should he grown for
each head of live stock. Iiemember
that the cornstalks if harvested will
provide good food for both horses
and cattle.
As to hay, that from cowpeas, cow-
peas and millet or cowpeas and sor
ghum cannot be excelled under aver
age conditions prevailing in Georgia.
Of course, excellent hay can ho made
from cutting oats in the dough stage.
For cows an abundance of clean
rougbage should be provided. Corn
stalks, sorghum fodder, cowpeas and
millet, soy beans or any other forage
crop can be used lt^ advantage with
this class of animals. While a little
com can be fed to some a/Jvantage to
the few milk cows maintained on the
average farm, we are disposed to
think that the cotton seed should he
exchanged for meal and fed to (his
class of animals, and that this prac
tice will nearly always be found of
advantage to the farmer.
Pig Club Enrollment
Jas. E. Downing, Organizer Of Pig
Clubs, Ga. State College Of Agr.
Over five hundred boys have been
organized into pig clubs in Georgia
• bis year in the following counties:
Whitfield, Carroll, Troupe, Bibb, Tatt
nall, Appling, Coffee, Wayne, Berrien,
Lowndes, Brooks, Grady, Decatur and
Thomas. It has been impossible to
organize clubs in all t.he counties that
have asked for them.
The banks in some of the counties
have assisted in getting the clubs
tided by loaning the boys money
with which to buy the pigs, the loan
to be repaid next. fall.
Some of the banks are offering a
dollar deposit and small metal savings
banks to ail boys in a county that, car
ry the club work through.
A scarcity of pure bred pigs in the
state has made it impossible for every
applicant to qualify as a full mem
ber, but those who do not are en
rolled in the Ham and Bacon Chib
and will be awarceu prizes for best
