Britt of Saddletree town ship, R. 2 from Lumberton, has been selling sueh pretty tobacco of a heavy texture cn the Lumberton market until tobacco men here have question ed him about his fertilizer and found that potash was responsible lor the weight. Mr. Britt says he used 900 pounds of 8-3-3, 50 pounds of muriate of po tash, 50 pounds of suiphate of potash and 20 pounds of sodium nitrate to tm; acre, and with his Cash variety of tobacco this year he believes he will average front 30 to 35c per pound for his crop. Other tobacco of the same variety on the floors here this week did not haxe the color nor the weight of Mr. IBritt's because, tobacco men believe, the growers did not use pot ash. Potash is recommended under to bacc) by the tobacco experiment sta tion at Oxford and by some of the leading farm papers in the South. PhHadetphus Schoo!
