TEST PLOT RESULTS
ARE MADE PUBLIC
Ellenboro Fertilizer Demon
stration Corn Plots Show
Some Surprising Re
sults
Ellenboro, Oct. 17.—The field
meeting held at Ellenboro Tuesday
to study the cotton and corn ferti
lizer tests, conducted co-operatively
by the agricultural department of the
Ellenboro school and the Chilean
Nitrate of Soda Educational Bureau,
was attended by thirty-five farmers
who heard Mr. Homer H. B. Mask,
Nitrate of Soda Representative from'
Raleigh, talk on fertilizing corn and
cotton. Mr. Mask told the farmers
how to fertilize these crops by point
ing out the results of different meth
ods of fertilization used in the tests.
County Agent F. E. Patton and J.
M. Osteen, District Agricultural Su
pervisor, from Troy, N. C., were
present and made talks. Estimating
contests were conducted and $16.00
, were given away to eight farmers
i who came the nearest in guessing the
! actual yields of corn and cotton pro
duced on the various plots.
I On weighing the corn produced on
the various plots that made up the
■ test the best yield was found to be
' 54.3 bushels of shelled corn per acre
j from the use of 200 pounds of nitrate
•of soda applied as a side-dressing
when the corn was about knee high.
This plot was planted to peas last
season also proved to be the most
profitable way to fertilize corn, giv
ing a profit of $17.00 per acre after
subtracting the cost of the fertilizer.
iThe yields obtained from the other
j plots of the test are: 30.4 bushels
ifrom the use of 300 pounds of an
i 8-3-3 fertilizer all applied at planting
time, 32-1 bushels was found to be
the yield of the check plot where
fertilizer was not used, 50.8 bushels
as a result of using 250 pounds of
acid phosphate and 25 pounds of mu
riate of potash at planting time with
200 pounds of nitrate of soda as a
I side-dressing, and 53.3 bushels was
jthe acre yield as a result of applying
'250 pounds of acid phosphate and 25
j pounds of muriate of potash at plant
! ing with 300 pounds of nitrate of |
| soda applied to the corn when about
i knee high. The plot on which the 300 j
1 pounds of the 8-3-3 fertilizer was j
used at planting shows a loss of near- j
ly $7.00 per acre compared with a ;
profit above the cost of fertilizer of j
$17.00 per acre from the use of 200 '
pounds of nitrate of soda used as a I
side dressing despite the fact that
200 pounds of soda does not cost as
much as 300 pounds of an 8-3-3 ferti
lizer.
The test plainly demonstrated that j
the corn plant needs an abundance j
of a" quickly available source of am
monia after it is knee high, and that
it does not pay to put much if any
ammonia in the fertilizer that goes
under the corn. Too much ammonia
under corn at planting time grows
the stalk at the expense of the ear.
The men who won in the estimat
ing contest and won a total of SB.OO
are: W. E. Hamrick, L. W. McKinney,!
J. S. Allen, J. D. McKinney and E.
B. Wilson. ,
Yields from the cotton fertilizer
test will be made public as soon as
picking has been completed.

JUDGE COCKE
SPEAKS TWICE
IN RUTHERFORD
Raps Idea Smith Responsible
For Crimes Of Tweed,
60 Years Ago
Rutherfordton, Oct. 13. Judge
Philip C. Cocke of Asheville spoke to
a large and enthusiastic audience at
W. L. Log's store, near Bostic Satur
day afternoon and at Cliffside at
night. Attorney S. P. Dunagan in
troduced him at both places.
At each place Judge Cocke devot
ed much of his speech to extolling
the achevements of the Democratic
party in the state and nation.
In dicussing Tammany hall and the
effort being made to discredit Gov
ernor Smith's candidacy because of
jthe corporation of Boss Tweed some
160 years ago the speaker said: "Boss
i Tweed was prosecuted and his con
, viction obtained by that great New
fYorke Lawyer Samuel J. Tilden, a
Democrat and a member of Tam
many Hall, himself, long before A 1
Smith was born.
"Only recently we hear that the
* treasurer of the mission board of
| one of the religious denominations of
| the nation had stolen a million dol
! lars. Most certainly the criticism of
, this act of crime and corruption
j should be restricted to the individual
| himself and by the some token the
j criminal acts of boss Tweed of Tam
| many Hall, committed some 60 years
i ago, should be charged to him alone."
i Judge Cocke closed his address by
I making a strong plea for the support
iof Congressman Weaver, Governor
; Max Gardner and the entire state
'Democratic ticket.
