For the benefit of those who were not able to get out last week to hear the address by E. Y. Floyd, specialist in tobacco growing, from State Col lege, the following fertilizer formu las will be given: For Tobacco 8-4-6. 800 lbs. acid phosphate (16 per ct.) 222 lbs. soda or 160 lbs. sulphate ammonia. 600 lbs. cotton seed meal. 115 lbs sulphate of potash. 110 lbs. muriate of potash. This is to be applied at the rate of 1,000 lbs. per acre. Mr. Floyd went into this formula in detail and explained each step of it and why it was used. In one or two cases even a slight change in the formula gave a vast increase in the number of pounds produced and greatly increased the quality of the leaf. If it is properly fertilized to begin with you will have much less trouble in curing a good grade. Mr. Floyd’s recommendations for rows was four feet with the plants spaced 24 inches in the drill. On real good land this can be cut to 20 inches and sometimes a little closer. If your dealer does not have this material I shall be glad to furnish you the names of dealers who can supply you with this grade of fertilizer. An am ple supply of bulletins will be in the office within the next few days which will be given you for the asking. These explain fertilizing, cultivating and the disease of tobacco. Mr. Floyd has had a large amount of experi ence in growing tobacco on his own farm in Granville county and he has also run experiments in several of the counties for some time. Last year he made a record yield in Lee county on the farm of Mr. Campbell, near Jonesboro. Don’t take any chances this year, but get the best to begin with. From all appearances now there will be a good supply of low grade tobacco put on the market this fall. Any further informlation will be gladly furnished you from the office. Mr. Floyd has promised to pay us another visit later in the sea son to discuss cultivation. Fertilizer for Corn. The following formula for com was recommended as being best for this section: Mix 200 lbs acid phosphate. 100 lbs. cotton seed meal. 25 lbs. muriate of potash. This is enough for one acre and is to applied at planting time. When the corn is about knee high it should then be given a side application of 100 lbs of soda per acre. While so many are turning their attention to tobacco let us not lose sight of the fact that a few good acres of com grown and then fed to pigs also makes another good money crop. The same applies to poultry and milk cows. Fertilizer for Cotton. 200 lbs. acid phosphate. 100 lbs. cotton seed meal. 20 lbs. nitrate of soda, 25 lbs. muriate of potash. This is enough for one acre Orders Being Taken for Beans. Better begin thinking about a few bushels of beans for a hay crop and for soil improvement while the prices are low. If you wait until planting time to buy you are going to pay more and perhaps not get as good beans. Farmers in Hoke county are offering a few 0-too-tons for sale now and at a reasonable price and too we are sure that these beans are true to name. These can be bought at: Rae- ford for about $4 per bushel. This is a small bean and a bushel will plant about 6 acres in three foot rows. The bean is excellent for hay and is val uable when turned under for soil im provement. Plant ydur corn in 6 foot rows and put a row of beans between the rows of com. A pretty good crop of beans can be harvested and then the vines turned under. If there is anything we need it is some thing to build up our soils. The same thing applies to the La redo bean. Either of these beans can be planted in three foot rows and cul- tivtated about twice to three times will make an enormous yield of hay. Plant these beans early and give them a chance. You will not be disap pointed. E. H. GARRISON, JR., County Agent. EXPLOSIVE DISTRIBUTION IS MILLION DOLLAR BUSINESS. Savings inade by farmers of North Carolina in using the cheap govem- ment explosive, the improved value of the land cleared of stumps and bould ers, and the increased yields of crops from lands so treated, has now reach ed the million dollar mark. LATE FACTS FOUND ABOUT GROWINK TOBACCO Quality leaf will pay the tobacco grower this coming season and the poor grades will likely not pay the cost of production. Therefore, the tobacco grower must plan to grow the best grade of weed possible, say the agricultural workers of the State College of Agriculture. SUBSCRIBE TO THE PILOT $2.00 PER VT?
