HOME FERTILIZERS. Th* Formula for Mixing as Given by tho Georgia .state ChemUt. 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 the farmer make a fertilizer adapted to his soil, if, as he should, he studies its needs, but also develops the economy of carefully saving the manure of the larm. Compelled to save 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 land. In this connection, the following reply by Dr. George F. Payne, the state chemist, to an inquiry for formula aud as to the cost of mate¬ rial, will be found of interest: Farmers can save money by clubbing together aiid buying acid phosphate in bulk for cash and making their own fertilizers. It is difficult to farm suc¬ cessfully in most sections of Georgia without the use of fertilizers, but It is all important to secure the best fertil¬ izers at as closo figures as possible. Acid phosphate can now l>e bought in bulk for cash at $8 50 a ton. Cottonseed meal cau now be bought in bulk for cash at $15.00 a ton. Muriate of pot¬ ash cau now be bought in 12-tou lots for cash at $42.00 a ton. At these figures the matetials for an average f*r»ftt««r at file maHtel will be: l,40fl pounds aefd phosphate (contain¬ ing 14 per cent available phosphoric acid) at $8.50 a ton, $5.05. 520 pounds cottonseed meal (contain¬ ing nitrogreu equivalent to 8 1-2 per cent ammonia) at $15.00 a ton, $3.90. 80 pounds muriate of potash (contain¬ ing 51 1 -3 per cent of potash) at $43.00 a ton. $1.08 1 . Making a total of 2,000 pounds at a cost of $11.85, containing the following percentage of plant food per ton: Available phosphoric acid, 0.80 per cent. Ammonia. 2.81 percent. Potash, 2.06 per cent. , If you desire a full strength good,, the following formula Will prove satis¬ factory, being made of the material, you wish to.use: Acid phosphate, 1.200 pound., cost about $-.80, 8.40 per cent available phosphoric acid Nitrate of soda, 260 pounds, cost about $,00. «qnivatontto pe. cvn ammonia. n , on pouu.i m Mi , uar or rotten leaves, 260 pounds. Total pounds, 2,000. Total cost. $. 4 . 60 . If you wish a oheaper fertilizer add more of the last ingredient. If you de *ire a stronger one leave out the last ingredient. Muriate of potash is a more concentrated form of potash than Vaiuit ami c^ts less for freight and for the actual jxitaah vu it. kainit oon tarns about 13 per cent of potash, and muriate about 50 per cent. To estimate the full cost, the freight on the acid phosphate aad muriate Of potash should be added to this, ithe trsisht.wff va^vaocordipstotheieuutb of thr- haul) ml also the labor required to mix the fertilizer. The mixing is best done by spread ing out toe materials in layers nr, top of each oth»r and cutting thn ugh the .avers with a hoe :.nd mix iug as the compound is cut down, , i 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 respeetfnllv, F. CiBOKGE PaYSE, ! State Chemist. IRISH POTATO GROWING. Wlint Can He Rea).s«cl »*y Planting Them on an Acre of Lkml. Jeff Welboru has the following on Irish potatoes: i I have found out that I can grow as much feed upon an acre of early peas as I can of corn or oats, and harvest the crop in time for a fall crop of Irish po¬ tatoes, and that the land will be in the condition for the potato crop wheu the peas are taken eff (also two crops of potatoes and one of peas on the same land.) I bavj also solved the problem of growing in field culture, a much superior potato for the table or seed for spring garden to ai.y that can be brought from the north, and this at nominal cost and more certain (if prop¬ erly managed) than a cotton crop. My last crop, which was the eigth crop in four years, without change of seed, was finer than any previous crop, both in quality and quantity, yielding at the rate of 160 bushels per acre, without manure or fertilizer of any kiud, ou common bill laud, that would not make over 1,000 pounds of seed cotton per acre. Now that we can grow them much cheaper than they cau be grown in the north and of much better quality, and the demand at our doors. Why not? We do not need the immense frost proof bins. In fact, in the south the fall crop is very little trouble. They do not Bweat aud rot like the yam. They will keep perfectly in a room where the thermometer does not run below 80 degrees abovo zero. Anything that grows in the fall is superior to the spring grown. The fall Irish pototoes is as far superior to spring grown potatoes as fall turnips are supe¬ rior to spring turnips. Our potatoes have increased in size, quality aud quantity per acre each sea¬ son since we commenced planting them here. Seed from the fall crop planted next spring will come on much earlier than the earliest and most northern grown. While there will not be so many in numbers in the vine they will be twice as large aud far superior every way. The seed once obtained need never he renewed, for the fall growing Im¬ proves them continually. The peas mentioned are the early maturing variety planted after the spring crop of Irish potatoes and taken off in time for the fall crop. To those wiio wish to adopt the val¬ uable suggestions of Mr. Welboru, we give the following concise advice by Mr. Massey, of the North Carolina sta¬ tion, which has froc.u mtly appeared in more elaborate form in these reports: 1. Bed the seed in soil until planting time. This gets rid of those too imma¬ ture to grow aud which if planted would leave gaps in the rows. 2. Plant about second week in Au¬ gust, if possible, and use only those po¬ tatoes that are sprouted. 3. Plant in a deep furrow, but cover very lightly aud pack the soil to the seed. 4. Never cut the potatoes for the late crop. 5. Gradually fill in the soil to the plants as they grow and cultivate the crop perfectly flat.

Dr. Salmon Toll* of This Fatal Disease A mens: the Il«g». Dr. Salmon, the chief of the bureau of animal industry, has just issued a bulletin on this subject which ought to be in the hands of every hog keeper, and can be obtained on application to the department of agriculture, Wash¬ ington, D. C. Dr. Salmon says that whilst no absolutely certain cure can be found for any disease, and certainly not for hog cholera, yet that, as the re¬ sult of a long series of experiments, the following has been found to be a most efficacious formula in most cases of this disease, and is valuable as a preventive: lbs. Wood charcoal.. ., 1 Sulphur........... 1 Sodium chloride..... 2 Sodium bicarbonate . 3 Sodium hyposulphite 2 Sodium sulphate..... l Antimony sulphide.. l Pulverize and thoroughly mix and give a large tablespoonful for each 200 pounds weight of hogs onoe a day. Feed on soft food, made of bran andshlpstnff or bran and oorn meal mixed in hot water and stir in the proper quantity of the medioine. Animals too sick to eat should be drenched with the medicine mixed in water. In drenching a hog, never throw him on his back or rope him and foroe him to take the medi eine. The chances are that if you do you will choke him. Pull out the side of his cheek from his teeth and thus make a pouch iuto which pour the med¬ icine, and it will run into his mouth and b 9 swallowed, or take an old shoe and cut off a small part of the toe, so as to make a hole through, and put this in his mouth. He will generally com¬ mence to chew the shoe—then pour the medicine into the shoe and it will find its way slowly into the mouth and be swallowed. We have drenched hogs in this'way when we could succeed in no other way. Keep the sick hogs dry, warm and clean, or it is very little use giving medioine.
