Lditor Lakeland News, Lakeland: Dear Sir: I submit herewith some ticures showing the approximate | amount of plant food removed by cer- tuin crops from the soil. 1 consider these figures very important because it we can get fixed in one’s head the number of pounds of nitrogen, phos- phorus and potash removed from the s0il by certain crops, then we shall know exactly how much fertilizer to put back on the soil in order to re- tain its fertility or in order to add| thereto, for, if we weuld have ouri fields become more productive than they now are, we must give more than we take away of the three es- sential elements of plant food. Now, then to the fizures. We find thar a crop of 30 bushels of corn including the fodder, cobs, and shucks, removes “from the soil 71 pounds of nitre- gen, 22 1-4 pounds of phosphorus. 64 3-4 pounds of potash, the com- mercial value of which totals $24. in making calculations to get at the value of fertilizer me:ovial we value | the nitrogen at 20. per pound potasi: { Now, suppose > should remove from an acre of land a 2o¢-bushel crop of Irish potatees, then we will have removed from that a i -t assessment roll that has ever been made up in Lakeland's history. Here- tofore the assessor has been the same person as the clerk and treasurer, and the manifold duties attached to these various offices rendered it im- possible for one man to attend to the office business and make this thor- I(nlah personal inspection in addition. As a result many lots were listed at rominal price of the land alone, when as a matter of fact they had im- provements on them amounting in some instances to ten or twen:y times| the ed valuation. A notable increase in the total of property valu- ation in the city is expected to be shown by the forthcoming asses roll sment OWN AN AUTOMOBILE.

To take from an acre «f land 200 bushels of sweet potatoes is to remove 27 1-2 pounds of nitro- gen, 1% 1-4 pounds of phosphorus, 76 1-2 pounds of potash, valued at $9. Now one can easily see from the above figures that in producing a crop of sweet potatoes the mixture should contain a very high per cent of potash, 60 per cent more than is needed for Irish potatoes, 1 wish to cmphasize these right here Lecause we have always been taught that the Irish potato required more potash than any other of the field “rops. I desire to call your attention to the fact shown by the figures above | that a fertilizer for corn shonld con- trin in round numbers twice as much Litrozen as should be in an lrish po- | ti to fertilizer, also about three times the amount of phosphorus, It will be observed further that the 50 corn crop removed 64 3-1 pounds potash from the soil, the 200 frish potato crop only pounds and the 200-bushel sweet po- tatoes 46 pounds, In order to retain the fertility of the acre from which the H0-bushel crop of corn has been taken, we must mix 1,000 pounds cotton seed meal analyzing 71-2 ammonia, 150 pounds 16 per cent acid, 500 pounds kainit. In order to retain the fertil- ity of an acre from which 200 bhush- ls of Irish potatoes have been re- moved, take 350 pounds cotton seed meal, 50 pounds acid and 260 pounds ot kainit. Tune acre for swest pota- toes should have ".»-wd meal, 120 pounds acid and 150 | peunds kamit, If we purpose to maintain 1he | figures Fushel bushel i » pounds cotion 1ility of our soils by the use of stable | ranure tand 1 oadvise this by all [ mresms whene it s possibley then we | will put on the S0-bushel corn re | N tons, on the Zov<hushel sweer po- I tato acre 3 tons, and 4 tons on the Irish potate acre. | wish, hewever, in this connection to warn everione against the use of fresh stable ma- nure in the production of a «ron of’ Irish potatves as | know from aciaal experience 11 will cause an v -ly,, scabby potato to zrow. 1 wisl te acknowledge my indebtedness to Mr. “Program for Tonight, THIRTY DAYS AT HARD LABOR (Edison—Comedy.)
