R. C. KELLY, Commr. This Jan. 25, 1915. STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA Department of State 1 is food for thought as well as for crops this year. - When shipments were interrupted by the war, it was estimated thut there was enough Potash on hand in the United States to pro vide two and three per cent Potash, in mixed fertilisers for this spring's trade. Some manufacturers had more than enough for t'.icse pc.-ccidagres. Since then minor sources of Potash have been fully utilized, nr.d additional shipments from the usual source r.re still being received. The supply is below normal, but this need not prevent farmers securing some Potash in their fertilizers, nor should it lead fanners to decide not to use fertilizers. There is no reason to return to the out-of-date goods without Potash, although some authorities mny try to "wish" them on us. We have not used enough Potash in the past. The largest annual import of Potash was only one-seventieth of the Potash taken from thi soil by our 1914 corn crop and only one-fifteenth of the Potash lost every year in drainage water. ' Sprinj crops use from two to ton times a3 much Potash as Phos phoric Acid. Get as much Potash in the fertilizer as possible. A few firms are offering to furnish from four to ten per cent. There is no substitute for Potash. It may be harder to get just now, but POTASH PAYS.

Tim Kind YtJaHava Always Bought r .... - ir-- -:fi.ri Cross Section of a Sweev Potato Storage House. (prepared hy the fnltnil States Drpurt-nii-nt of Agriculture.) With a 'home garden to furnish him fresh vegetables and a well managed poultry flock to provide meat and eggs tor his own tabls as well as a surplus for the market, the farmer will have the satisfaction of feeling that he has very considerably reduced his cost ot living. He can therefore turn with a freer mind to the production of a money crop. As a crop of this kind the sweet po tato is yearly becoming of greater Im portance throughout the South. With in the last ten years the value of this crop has Increased 80 per cent, and with better methods of storing and marketing It is estimated that even this increased value could be doubled. Such Improved methods, moreover, should make it possible for the south ern family to store sweet potatoes for Its own use throughout the entire year, and this, indeed, is a matter of prime importance to the housewife. In other sections of the country the Irish po tato form-i an important part ,of the meal three times a day; in the South climatic conditions have made this im practicable and some other substitute has to be found. Hitherto there have been difficulties in the way of using sweet potatoes for this purpose, but now that the problems in connection with their storage have been solved these difficulties are to a great meas- I I. '.s i?p paper i i y :'v -Bxs'' ' " '1 1 s age period. Although this may seem to involve considerable expense, It has been calculated that for a well-built house, one good stove will provide heat enough to cure from ten thousand to twenty-five thousand bushels of po tatoes. By careful storage in this way grow ers will find it possible to put their product on the market when the de mand Is at the greatest, usually from the middle of December to the middle of March. Careful grading and pack ing will lessen loss from decay and secure better prices. In fact, to quota from the bulletin already mentioned, "With the growing demand for sweet potatoes there is every inducement for the southern farmer to adopt better methods for growing and marketing so as to make the sweet potato a more Important money crop." It is as a money crop that the southern farmer should regard the sweet potato. A few early plants, however, should find a place in his home garden for home consumption. Even, moreover, if It is not desired to grow sweet potatoes on a commercial scale, by a little atten tion to the principles of storage which, have already been discussed, the farm er will find It quite easy to keep a sufficient supply in good condition throughout the year for the use of his own family. Dears thu " Signature of Details of Construction cf a Sweet Potato Storage Houss. ure removed.

The following answer was given to an inquiry concerning the value of cottonseed as a fertilizer and as feed by G. S. Fraps, state chemist of Texas: The average composition of cotton seed is as follows: Nitrogen 3.13 per cent, phosphoric acid 1.27 per cent, potash 1.17 per cent. With nitrogen at 20c a pound, phosphoric acid at Gc a pound and potash at Ac a pound a ton of cottonseed would have Jfc fertilizer valuation of $14.00 per ion. 1 am unable to tell yon, however , whether or not this fertilizer would give profitable results on your black! hog wallow land. Land of this char acter usually needs vegetable tnalXer" more than it does fertilizers. That is. to say. it needs applications of stable manure or a rotation of crops in which a legume, such as cowpeas, clover, etc., is grown to be turned under or grazed off. Sometimes it reacts to fertilizers and sometimes It does not It cottonseed meal gives gcod results then the cottonseed ought likewise to give good results. Whether you should exchange for meal or not de pends upon the basis of exchange.! Good cottonseed meal has something' more than twice the fertilizing value of cottonseed. It Is also of pood feed ing vaiue, uat It wijuU probably pay you to use two pounds per day of cottonseed meal for vour horses and r.ues to taho. the laoc oi the more expensive corn. CULTIVATION OF SOY BEANS When Early Varieties Are Used Good Crop of Torape (Vay Pe Obtained Methods of Seeding. fn a peroral way, soV beans should receive the same culture as the or dirary field bef,n. Prepare the land i thr.t n f-'ood root hod will be pro vided and have it smooth and free from clods. Seed mav be nut Into th ground e early in the season as practicable, hvt the best results will b obtained if seeding Is postponed until the sod 13 well warmed. Whew, early varieties are used, a fairly pood crop of forage mny be obtained, if planted after some of tlio onriior small grains, such as rye and barley, have been harvested. In this way, two crops may be secured from tho same field in a single season, one of small grain and the other of soy beans. Another practice is to drill the beans in between the rows of corn after the last cultivation. The meth od of sewl'n.sr will depend, of course, upon the kind of crop which it is de sired to harvest. If it is wanted for hay or p'-?en fodder, sow either broadcast or with a grain drill, but ff beans are desired, plant in drills only, having the rows three to four feet apart. 1 There is considerable variation as to' tho amount of seed sown per acre n the different parts of the country. Some farmers use only half a bushel, while others prefer twice as much .or even mora. .-. .j
