, Using Nitrate of Soda
A READER in the upper part of the
Cotton Beltasks, for advice in
regard to the use. of nitrate of soda,
and the following is the reply of a
member of our staff who has had con
siderable experience with this ma
terial: - :.!;":.,; :"
"I have used nitrate of soda for sev
eral years now on corn, cotton and
pats, and on the poor sandy lands of
my' section I would hardly care to
farm without it. On cotton in 1917
and 1918 I used it at the rate of 100
pounds per acre as a side-dressing
in Jurte. In 19J9 for cotton I used
ISO pounds, per acre, applying 75
pounds per acre at-planting time and
The calves are all well marked and
took, like full-blooded Herefords, re
gardless of thecolor of their moth
ers.' It is a beautiful sight to see a
dozen or. more of these white-faced
calves together, and we frequently
have visitors come to see them. ne
season we had 25 calves, and 10 of
them were dropped during a period
of 11 days. The calves usually come
in the spring, and we sell them in the'
fall, the price being usually around
$25. However we have kept some
of the heifers until they were full
grown cows and sold them at good
prices." They were only grades, but
looked like purebreds, so strongly
were they marked by the sire.
This bull has been worth hundreds
of dollars to us during the past-seven
years, arid the cows we have on hand
have been bred to him again. How
long he wiir-continue to give good

in June. Next season I have planned to
use 200 pounds per acre under cotton,
using all of it about planting time and
none as a side-dressing. I am coh

where the weevil is usiially-pretty bad,
