B. Morrow, ex tension horticulturist of Stale College. The tests were conduct ed under the snpervisiou of Mr. Morrow and Couuty Agent L. L. McLendon, on the farms of J. T. Albritton of Calypso, and J. B. Hawse aud J. T. Marshburn of Rose Hill. Each plot contained one-twen tieth of an acre with check plots the same size on which the grow er's formula was used. Accurate records of the yield from each plot were kept by tho grower. These records show an average yield of 140.1 quarts Iroin each plot where the 9-3-8 formula was used as compared with 98.4 quarts from the check plots. According to Mr. Morrow, this means an in crease of 26 crates per acre in favor of the recommended fertiliz er mixture. A stud) of these results iudi cat-s that a part of the increase was due to the time and method of applying the fertiliaer, states Mr. Morrow. On those plots us ing the 9-3-8 mixture, the first application was put on atrout August 1, and the second applica tion iu early November. There was some difference in time of ap plication by the growers of their own mixtures but in general both the first and second applications were put On later than was the oase with the 9-3-8 formula, he states. Repair tho poultry house, stop the cracks and leaks, and cnll the flock preparatory to winter, ad vises one successful poultryman. Beardless barley, oats and vetch grow winter corn for feed next summer, say those farmers who have tried the mixture. WANT ADS Chattel Mortgage Blanks?For sale at The Gleaner office.
