L T. Weeks Speaks
Of Problems Now
Facing the Grower
(Continued from page three)
to have a surplus in the winter in
the form of canned goods and dried
food, plenty of meat, corn for bread
and small grain.
As to the cultivation of the crops
anil the planting, the nirakfr rOTII
minded that 200 pounds of fertiliz
er of 4-8-3 be used to the 100 square
'yards of the tobacco beds. Experi
ments show that best results are
obtained when 50 per cent of the
nitrogen comes from water soluble
sources and 50 per cent of the nitro
gen comes from water insoluble
sources.
As for the dressing to be put on
the bed it was suggested that a mix
ture containing two to four pounds
of nitrate of soda, ten pounds of dried
blood, twenty pounds of cotton seed
meal, one-half bushel of hen house
manure, thoroughly mixed and ap
plied to 100 square yards of bed when
f?u?d from experience. This should
and two per cent from sulphate of
lie applied only when the bed is dry
and when the plants are the size of
a nickel to the size of a half-dollar.
For the fields it was suggested that
from 800 to 1000 pounds per acre of
3-8-8 be applied to the average soil
For stiff land or very fertile soil, 3
10-6 has proven more successful
Where nitrogen comes from two- |
thirds water soluable sources and
one-third water insoluable sources
better results are obtained from the
value standpoint, than in cases where
the nitrogen comes from half water
soluable sources and half water in
soluable sources. In a test conducted
in 1939. the results showed an ad
vantage of $20.60 per acre in favor
of the 2-3 and 1-3 formula over the
half and half formula.
In no case should more than two
per cent of muriate of potash be
used. Where 'Sand Drown' is not

nance the benefit payments.
The question of S225.0OO.OOO in
"parity" payments to help swell
farm income was raised in the ap
propriations committee hut a move
to appropriate that sum as in other
years was shouted down by a loud
chorus of "Noes".
Farm members said privately they
sow no use in asking the House to
restore that item?which was not
asked by the President. They seem
ed to be passing that task to their
colleagues in the Senate, which last
year insisted on parity payments.
Hrf'-r- Ih.. on I *> Homme knnwn
Agriculture department officials ex
pressed gratification over the fact
1 h,-|i ilir inrli'v "f ' "r"~ps had
en three points this month to 99
per cent of the 1909-1914 level?the
highest in two years.
At the same time, they figured
that Congress' appropriations for
parity last sumraer would be dis
tributed in this manner among the
major crops: cotton, $94,000,000;
corn, $81.000,000; wheat. $46,000.000;
rice. $5,000,000
Publication of hearings on the
agriculture bill disclosed that Sec
rettry WiUgce^ like many House
members, recommendexT some per
manent .self-financing farm subsidy
program.
Asserting that fanners had been
subject to the "shifting winds of
political sentiment," Wallace sug
gested that Congress adopt a stream
lined processing tax or consider
special manufacturer's and luxury
taxes.
