TWO FERTILIZER TESTS UNDER WAY Department of Agriculture in Local High School Con ducting Corn and Cotton Test. The Department of Agriculture at Cool Springs High school is conduct ing a series of demonstrations on the farms in the community, accora ing to D. H. Sutton, teacher of Agri culture. Two of these demonstra tions, fertilizer tests in cotton and corn, will be put in this week. The test with cotton will be on the farm of Wilbur Smith on the highway be tween Forest City and Caroleen. The other, on corn, willjbe on the farm of W. E. Lewis. All of the series of experiments are planned to meet the need of the local farmers. There is no problem in agriculture more vital than the problem of fertilizer. The tests are an extension of the fertilizer test run on the farm ?>f W. L. Hunt last year. They will afeo be run in co-operation with the Chil ean Nitrate of Soda Educational Bureau and will be conducted on plots divided into five sections of one-tenth of an acre each. Each of these sections will be fertilized dif ferently and marked clearly so that the success or failure of the differ ent fertilizers can be clearly demon strated. These experiments are very practical and both the students and farmers are much interested in them. U. D. C.
