. and comprehensive view of the work.
; Iq-this "report we do not consider it
necessary • to reproduce these tables, as
those who desire to closely inquire into
the. work of the station can do so by ap
plying to the director, Mr. B. J. Red

• - FULTON EXPERIMENT ON CORN.
In this as in - the other experiments,
we give the general with the results
and conclusions reached by. the station,
.with such experiments as is necessary in
the .absence of the tabulated statements.
The'experiment was located on a piece
of fairly good clay, soil following .a good
crop'of cotton in 1891. The land was
divided into'28 plots, each containing
three four-foot rows 105 feet long. On
24 plots, eight combinations of super
phosphate,muriate of potash and nitrate
of soda were used, each combination
being applied to three plots. On two
plots cotton seed meal was ifibstituted
in the place of nitrate of soda in such
proportion as to furnish corresponding
percentages, and two plots were unfer
tilized. /For ascertaining the results,
the average of plots similarly fertilized
was taken. The different combinations
were formed on 812 pounds superphos
phate, 39 pounds muriate of potash and
65 pounds nitrate of soda as a normal
ration. The changes being made by
doubling the ration of one or more or all
the ingredients. It will be seen that
the normal, ration gave a fertilizer
which showed now about 8.10 phospho
ric acid, 4.68 potash and 2.79 ammonia.
The amount of potash contained in the
normal ration being from two to three
times the amount contained in the aver
age comihercial fertilizer should be
borne in mind in considering the poor
results obtained by doubling this mate
rial. , It should also be remembered that
muriate of potash, running about 50 per
.c&nt.’actuaf potash, doubling this ra
tion rapidly increases the'percentage of
potash in the mixture.
The highest increase in yield was
given on those plots on which the acid
phosphate only was doubled. A strik
ing feature of the experiment was that
on this soil in none of the experiments
did the increased yield pay for the fer
tilizers used, the highest increase being
8.02 bushels with a cost for fetilizers of
$7.16/ The average yield on unfertilized
plots was 18.96 bushels per acre,
that of fertilized 24.88 bushels, and the
average cost of fertilizers was $7.30 per
acre. y • ^
The folibwiu'g are the results and con
clusions as given by the station:
• RESULTS.
1. T-ho Effect of Muriate of Potash—
This form of potash seems to affect the
yield injuriously when the normal
quantity is doubled, especially those
plots on which the other elements were
applied in only normal quantities. This
effect is not apparent in every plot
where muriate of potash was applied in
double rations, but it is so in 10 out of
14 plots.
% 2. The Effect of Nitrate of Soda—In
‘ seven plots out of 12 on which the ni-
* trate doubled, the other elements re
maining the same, the yield was in
creased. '■
3. The Effect of Superphosphate—In
eight, plots out of 14 on which thejniper-
phosphate was doubled, the others re
maining unchanged, the yield was in*
4. The Effect of Cottonseed Meal—
~ Teere were.two plots on which cotton
seed meal was substituted for a double
ration of nitrate of soda. In one (plot 9)
the yield was increased, and in the
other (plot 10) the yield was decreased
by the substitution.
CONCLUSIONS.
1. The use of muriate of potash was
of doubtful benefit on this land. Even
if beneficial in small doses, a limit is
soon reached beyond which an increase
in the amount is certainly injurious.
2. The effect of superphosphate was
certainly beneficial.
3. The effect of nitrate of soda was
also of decided benefit.
4. Cotton seed meal did not seem, ..so
decided in its effects.
5. In general, the results of this ex
periment do.not favor the use of con
centrated chemical' fertilizers on com.
In no case did the increased yield of the
fertilized plots over the unfertilized pay
for the cost of the fertilizer.

der Experiment No. 7, Table VT. ]
SUBSaOILING FOR CORN. *
bring the results of the ex
it, the effect of the character of
the season should be borne in mind, as
in a dry season, great benefit might
be derived, while iq. a wet season its
effect might-hardly be perceptible.
The effect of nitrating is also given in
this eperiment. The nitrate was ap
plied on April 27, at the time of the
first plowing, and on June 13. The
quantity was 130 pouhds per acre.
' - ; RESULTS.
The effect, of .subsoiling amoudted
practically to nothing, the increased
yield being only 23-100 of a bushel, or
less than one peck of corn per acre.
This increase would not. pay the cost of
the extra labor employed in subsoiling.
Effect of Nitrating—The most. - re
markable feature in the results on this
acre" was the effect of the two additional
applications of nitrate of soda. The in
creased yield of com was only 2,98
bushels—not enough to justify such ap
plications—but the effect on the after
growth" of crab grass was remarkable.
After-the crop was laid by the effect on
th ; e growth of the grass, as compared
with the north half on which . no addi
tional doses'.of nitrate were applied, was
very marked; giving a yield of 886
pounds of crab grass per acre.

results.
A careful study of. the table . fails to
show any significant difference between
the yields of plots on which the fertiliz-
planting and those which received the
same formula in two or more succes
sive doses. The average yield, of plots
on which the formula containing ni
trate of soda as an ammoniate was ap
plied at one time—before planting—was
less than five pecks per acre greater than
the average yield of the plots on which
the formula was divided into two and
three doses.' But this difference, small
as it is, is not sustained by the results
of the interculturally fertilized plots
compared with each other. The yields
of the plots on which cottonseed meal
wos substituted for nitrate of soda is
unexpectedly low as' compared with the
nitrate of soda plots. Plot 12, on which,
the whole was applied at one time,
shows an exceptionally high yield, but
there is reason to fear that some error
was committed, or there was undiscov
ered cause for this excess. The aver
age yield ;qf all the cottonseed meal,
plots, however, was nearly two bushels
less than the average yield of the nitrate,
of soda plots. - .
CONCLUSIONS. ,,f*
The results correspond substantially
with those of similar experiments made
in 1890 and 1891, hence we conclude: f,/
• 1., There is no material advantage -to
the current growing crop of corn in
dividing the fertilizer into two or more
doses to he applied successively during
the growing period.
2. This experiment indicates that for
corn nitrate of soda is a somewhat bet
ter form of nitrogen than cottonseed
meal. ;
deep vs. shallow culture—corn.
The Object of this experiment was to
find if there is any advantage or loss in
cultivating corn deeply. A number
of experiments of a,similar nature have
been conclued at the station and they
all confirm the 'conclusion that after
thorough preparation no advantage is
to be obtained by deep culture, the
BhalloW culture plots yielding more
fodder in most experiments. In the last
experiment there .was an increase of
0. 29 of a bushel in deep culture plots
which did not pay for the extra plowing.

As has been remarked in commenting
on variety tests of corn in previous’
years, suplx tests are by no - means con
elusive to which of severahvarieties is
the best.
Such tests can only compare the rela
tive productiveness of such varieties as
are very , similar, if not identical, in
their lfcibits of growth and ^periods of
fruiting. As between two kinds ot
corn, one of/which silks arid tassels sev
eral Weeks iini advance of the other, it is
manifest that; the seasons may be' very ,
unfavorable fertile earlier variety at
the most critical period (silking time),
while the later variety may .“strike the
seasons” exactly right, and-vice versa;'
So of two varieties that differ very,
much in size if stalk- aud ears,; i tiie-“dis-
tance” given to both being the sanie,
one may have just the right number of
plants on the laud, while the other may
be too thick or too thin. Practical
fanners understand this.
It is but fair to say that the nine first
named seemed to be much alike in size
of stalk and ear, hut not exactly, while
numbers 10 and 11 were smaller in stalk
and ear, and a little earlier. Hence the
test is not strictly fair to these two,
especially Blount’s Prolific, as they
should have been planted closer. • Nos.
1, 7, 8 and 9 seemed most desirable on
the score of yield, uniformity in size of
ears and color of grain and soundness.
COMPOSTING “IN THE HEAP” VS. MIXING
IN THE FURROW—CORN.
The object of this experiment was to
find the comparative results of compost
ing stable manure, cottcn seed and acid
phosphate in the heap, permitting the
mass to ferment for some weeks, and
mixing the same quantities of the same
•ingredients in the opening furrows just
beefore planting.
The propositions adopted correspond
with a formula that is popular with
farmers in some sections, viz.:
Superphosphate 200 lbs.
Green cotton seed l,0001bs.
Stable manure..... .1,000 lbs.
2,200
Two lots, each containing the alpve
respective amounts of the three ingre
dients were carefully weighed. March
8 one of these lots was thoroughly
mixed, wetted with water, and thrown
into a loose mass into one of the cow
stalls, under shelter. The other lot was
kept dry until April L Ori r that day the
two lots were distributed in the opening
furrows and covered with tumplows,
and this small bed was opened^ with, a
shovel plow, the com planted And cov
ered with a hand hoe, the next day,
April 2. Subsequent treatment was ex
actly the same on both series of plots.
The land was naturally thin, sandy soil,
underlaid by yellow clay very similar
to much of the branch hillside, gray
soils of middle Georgia. It had been, in
cotton fertilizer experiments the two
years previously, the plots and rows
running at right angles to those of the
present experiment, But the land was
poor. On all the plots the corn grew
off well and throughout the season was
the best on the farm; bnt there was no
perceptible difference between the dif
ferent plots. It was very - uniform in
every respect over the entire section.
The yield, carefully gathered and
weighed, Sept. 22, shows no difference.
Unfortunately no unfertilized plots
'were left, and therefore the increased
yield of cotton due to the composts does
not appear; but Mr. 'Kimbrough, agri
culturist, believes the unaided soil would
not have made exceeding 12 or 15
bushels or com per acre.
CONCLUSIONS.
L That there is no, material advant
age, if any, in composting and ferment
ing a mixture of cotton seed, stable ma
nure and acid/phosphate several' weeks
beforehand,? compared with applying
the Bameqantities.oftheRajne materials,

muriate of .potash in experiment No. C.
This point will' be more clearly elabor
ated next season.
These two are remarkably similar in
every respect, and probably of identical
origin. Well suited to.. high latitudes
because of their extreme earliness,
yielding more than three-fourths of their
total crop before the 1st of October, al
though planted April 18. «
Pittman’s—This was the most prolific
variety in 1891; bnt did not maintain its
p6sition. It is a short limbed cluster
variety.
Duncan’s Mommoth, Mammoth Pro
lific, -Truitt’s Improved are all very sim
ilar in habit and probably of same ori-
.gin, but Truitt’s Improved mis a larger
“weed” and is more prolific.
Jones, Wonderful is an excellent type
of the upland lontr staple varieties and
is more productive and of better staple
than any of the class tested on the
station.
The yield of lint per 100 pounds of
seed cotton was found by carefully gin
ning the entire product of . each variety.
January 20, after thorough air drying.
: It may be said by way of caution that
there is no necessary relation between
the yield of lint per 100 pounds of seed
cotton and the actual yield of lint per
acre. A variety may yield a high per
centage of lint; calculated on a given
weight of seed cotton, and yet yield less
lint per acre than another variety. It is
probably more a question of seed than
of lint. As the seed contain nearly all
of the valuable elements taken from the
soil, it is but reasonable to expeot that
a large yield of seed per acre will be at
tended by a corresponding large yield
of lint. .We have but little doubt that
some varieties that are popular with
the mass of fanners because of their
large percentage of lint campared to
seed simply produce less seed per acre
instead of more lint per acre, It re
mains true, however, that, a small
seeded variety—small in size and small
in percentage of the whole—is better for
poor land andlbw culture than a varie
ty having naturally large seed and a
smaller percentage of lint.
For further remarks on this line, and
in regard to large boiled varieties the
reader is referred to Experiment No. 10.
