The Cleveland Courier has been
asked by Dr. L. N. Hull to give
him some free advertising because
a corporation recently saw fit to
use our columns in advertising an
article dealing with the character
of Dr. Huff. The article, being
paid matter, was properly indicat¬
ed as such. If Mr. Iluff will pay
for the space his article will require
we shall publish it as an advertise¬
ment. Otherwise it must go un¬
published, as we deem the issue
purely a personal matter between
he and the corporation.
Rev. R. P. Tatum preached at
the Methodist church in town Sun¬
day at 11 o’clock. After reading
at leng h he selected for his text
that familiar pass ige in scripture,
“There was a certain rich man,
which was clothe i in purple and
fine linen, and fared sumptuously
every day (Luke xvi, 19). He
entered into a clear and lengthy
discourse of his opinion of what
the life of that rich man (Dives)
was, stating that it was most likely
he was a man of good standing in
his community ; possiby a steward
as well as a member of the church ;
a man whose life was acceptable to
public opinion at the time that he
lived, and that there was no record
to indicate otherwise. That he fed
Lazarus and permitted his dogs to
lick his sore* where, doubtless, he
permitted him to occupy a cot in
•one of the gatekeeper’s houses.

with those frequently expressed
;from the pulpit and has brought
About no little discussion amongst
religiously inclined people.
Whether Rev. Tatum’s definition
of this parable is right or wrong it
serves x good purpose in bringing
about a discussion of one biblical

SIDE APPLICATION'
OF FERTILIZERS
FERTILIZERS ARE CHEAP
AGAIN.
Practice of Side Application Will
Be Extensively Followed
This Year.
Atlanta, Ga., April.—Reports receiv¬
ed from fertilizer companies Indicate
that the Southern farmer fell a good
deal short of using as much fertilizers
at planting time this year as usual. Serr
era! reasons are assigned. One Is that
the farmers waited tor the price of
fertilizers to fall with the expectation
of using them in greater quantities
than the usual amount as side applica¬
tions to the growing crops.
It seems that the practice of side ap¬
plication of fertilizers Is quite common¬
ly followed by successful Southern
farmers. In fact, the Williamson neth
od of growing corn that Is popular In
the coastal plains region of the South,
provides that no fertilizer be applied
except as side applications to the corn
crop.
On the question of side applications
of fertilizers, J. N. Harper, director of
the Soil Improvement Committee and
recognized authority on agricultural
methods of the South, says, that there
are more than the usual advantages
this year In favor of side applications.
The reason is apparently favorable to
giving good response to fertilizers.
A word of caution is, however, sound¬
ed by Mr. Harper. He says that the
Side applications should be made early.
Late applications to cotton will only
prolong the growth of the plant and
favor the boll weevil. He says that
it will be better to make both the aide
applications of complete fertilizers and
the nitrogen top dressing within six
week* after planting, where the boll
weevil Is present.
For corn, he states that side applica¬
tions are quite generally made too late
to get the best results. On clay loam
or heavy soils he advises a side appli¬
cation and nitrogen dressing when the
Corn is from knee to waist high. For
sandy or light soils, be says that sidq
applications can be made later, that 1s,
when the corn Is waist to shoulder
high, but before It begins to bunch to
tassel.
Mr. Harper says that care must be
taken to use only readily available
tonne of fertilizer so that the growing
plants can utilize them in promoting
rapid growth and development of fruit.
The fertilizer should contain phos
phorlo acid in the form of acid phos¬
phate. This is the main element fof
hastening maturity. The fertiliser
•hould also contain nitrogen and potash
la the readily available form. Nitrogen
promotes the growth of the stalk and
leaves and potash strengthens the plant
and helps fill out the fruit.
A top dressing of sulfate of ammonia
or nitrate of soda is quite commonly
made, and, according to Mr. Harper, it
should follow closely after the second
application of fertilizer, and within the
periods of cotton and corn growth
which he mentions above.
AVOID MISTAKES IN
POISONING BOLL WEEVIL
Weevils Can Be Poisoned With
. Profit
The Catted States Department »(
Agriculture, through its boll weeyff
experts. Profs. B. R. Coad and T. P.
Cassidy, have issued a statement, a
part of which is entitled "Where It
Will Pay You to Potson.” This part
is as follows:
It will pay to poison—
If the weevils are really Injuring
your crop seriously, and
If your land is sufficiently fertile
to yield at least one-half bale per acre
with weevil Injury eliminated, and
It your farming organization is such
that you feel assured that the poison
applications will be made at the right
time and In the right manner, and
If you are willing to spend the full
amount necessary to provide an ade¬
quate supply of dusting machinery and
poison.
The general gains from weevil poi¬
soning under average, fairly favorable
conditions seem to he from 200 to 400
pounds of seed cotton per acre, but,
owing to variations In degree of wee¬
vil Injury It is not safe to expect much
more than the lower figure.
Consequently, you should not poi¬
son If the cost of the calcium arse¬
nals, the coat of labor to apply tt.
and the depreciation on the dusting
machines will total more per acre
than the current value of 100 pounds
of seed cotton.
Hand guns should be figured qs de¬
preciating 100 per cent In a season and
the larger machines about 25 per cent
Do It Right Or Not At All
Many valuable lessons have been
gained from the recent expension of
commercial weevil poisoning. It has
again been shown that the boll wee¬
vil can be poisoned with profit If con¬
ditions are favorable and If proper
methods are used, but tt has been em¬
phasized anew that unfavorable condi¬
tions and improper ifiethods can lead
only to failure. A survey of the poi¬
soning by farmers in 1920 shows that
an unfortunately large proportion were
not properly informed as to the condi¬
tions under which they should poison
and the methods they should pursue.
As a result thare were many unneces¬
sary failures. _________
