Williams Gives Hps On Croji Fertilizers Nnrth Carolina farmers spend 20 . o 30 million dollars every. year fori fertilizer. -Yet many of them do not get full " ,value for the money they spend be . cause they do not apply the right . mixture to their crops, said C. B. Williams, head of the State College agronomy department. The kind of fertilizer to apply de pends upon the crops grown and the , type of the soil. The amount a grower, will find profitable to use depends to some ex tent upon the price he can expect to get for his crops, Williams added. When, prices are up, the grower can .afford to apply more fertilizer to get the highest yield consistent wrai good farming practices, he con tinued. For the major crops grown in the State on average soils, and with a , prospect of average' prices, Williams recommends the following fertiliser applications: In coastal plaint' Tobacco, 800 to 1,000 pounds of 3--6' to the" acre, the fertilizer mixed according to re commendations of the tobacco com mittee. Cotton, 450 to 500 pounds ol 4-8-4. Corn and small grains, 250 to 800 pounds of 4-8-4. Legumes, 200 to 800 pounds pf 2-8-4. Late sweet potatoes, 600 to 800 pounds of 8-8-8. In piedmont and mountain coun ; ties:; Tobacco, 800 to lflOO pounds of ' 8-10-0 (piedmont) or 8-12-6 (moun tains) to the acre. Cotton, 400 to 600 -.pounds of 4-10-4.
