Proper Use Of Manure I . 1 "• ! Manure should be applied broad cast at the rate of 10 to 20 tons per acre as a garden fertilizer, depend ing on the state of fertility of the soil. Ten tons an acre equals about fifty pounds per 100 square feet. Manure applied in spring should be well rotted. A combination of manure ' and superphosphate in the propor tion of ten tons of manure to 500 ! pounds of superphosphate is good for I most soils. j "Leafy vegetables such as cabbage, j lettuce and spinach require nitrogen for their best growth and this should 'be taken into consideration in using 'manure with a mixture of commer ! cial fertilizer," says E. B. Morrow, ! Extension Horticulturist at State college. "Tomatoes respond best to manure combined with fertilizer con i taining a high percentage of phos ! phoric acid and moderate amounts of nitrogen and potash. Ten tons of manure per acre plus a complete fertilizer analyzing about 12 to 16 percent phosphoric acid, 4 percent nitrogen and 4 to 6 percent potash should be used." Mr. Morrcw says that cantaloupes and watermelons do especially well when fertilized with manure. When applied in the hill, 5 or 10 pounds of manure per hill is not too much. A handful of superphosphate to each hill also is helpful on most soils. Af ter the plants are established give [one or two side dressings with a ni trogen fertilizer, especially on sandy 1 soil. Avoid the use of manure on Irish | and sweet potatoes, advised Mr, f Morrow. It enriches the soil too 'much for sweet potatoes and may j cause scab on Irish potatoes. If used !to enrich soil for Irish potatoes it | should be applied to a previous crop. I Sweet potatoes do best on land of I moderate fertility heavily fertilized. Both Irish and sweet potatoes res pond best to fertilizers containing rather high percentage of potash. TANNER'S GROVE Forest City, R-2, Mar. 17.—Mr. and Mrs. H, B.

A dusting machine must be ob tained; no pre-square application of sweetened poison will control the weevil throughout the season, says C. H. Brannon, extension entomolo gist at State College. 801 l Weevil poisoning is for control only. The weevil does not start to reduce the crop until 10 percent damage is reached as the plants normally shed that amount of squares. Making counts of punctured squares at.least once a week is the very foundation of boll weevil con trol. Those who do not make regu lar infestation counts are fighting in the dark. No attention should be given to squares on the ground in determining damage. "Start poisoning when 10 percent] damage occurs," says Mr. Brannon. | "Use from 4 to 6 pounds of calcium j arsenate per acre. If possible, dustj only when the air is reasonably calm j and the plants are moist. Repeat.' the j applications at 5-day periods as may | be found necessary to keep the wee vil under control. When the damage has been reduced to less than 10' percent discontinue poisoning until the weevils again become injurious. If a heavy rain falls within 24 hours after poisoning repeat the applica tion immediately." A list of poisoning machines and their capabilities follows: hand gun, 8 acres a season; saddle gun, 40 to 50 acres a season; one mule machine, 1 60 acres a season; traction cart dutet !er (two mules), 100 acres a season; ! power car duster, 200 to 300 acres ja season; airplpane dusters, for very •large fields only. | Do not expect to eradicate the weevil, says Mr. Brannon. Live wee vil will be found in the best poison ed field. Ofter it is impossible to find a dead weevil in the best poisoned J field. No one should set fire to the [woods thinking the weevil will be controlled in this way. This a a dan gerous practice and is not recom mended under any conditions. The Unanswered Ad.

C., Mar. 15.—Two changes in Gaffney's postal service will become effective Monday in ac cordance with orders from Washing ton. One will be the transfer of the point of origin of the star route to Rutherfordton, N. C., from Gaffney to Spartanburg, and the other cuts off 1.4 miles and adds 1.5 miles at another point to rural route No. 9, carried by Q., F. Blanton. Certain interests served by the star mail route at Cliffside, Hen rietta, Caroleen, Forest City and other points have been seeking the transfer from Gaffney to [Spartanburg for some time, ac | cording to Postmaster F. B. Gaff iney, in order to secure closer con nections for air mail service. The volume of local mail handled on the roiite has been rather in ! consequential, Mr. Gaffney said, Iso no effort was made to oppose j the change. The route was es tablished some three or four years | ago, and has been operating ' out of the Gaffney postoffice I since. I What Do You Think? !
