Of apcolal Intoreit In tho Itedmond trial noted Is tho comparison of
nlphnlo or potanh with land plaatur. hand planter la widely uted on tho
Crook county Irrigated lands and Ronernlly In oxcinwlve amount, and thla
la a daiiKuroua practice. It ahould bo fully understood thnt land plniter la

applied aa commercial fertlllier, It not only kIvuh a larger Increase In tho
crop, aa la shown by tho residual effects of tho first yoar'a application on
thu alfalfa thu second year, but It eurlchca tho soil in thla Important
plant food. Further, where 200 pounda of land planter par aero la usod,
thore la llttlo question that In sandy aolla under Irrigation, leachlnR and a
direct loss of plant rood la itosstblo. Tho writer doea not heaitato to
recommund careful triala of commorclal potassium furtllliora on potatoes

Heavy applications or barn yard manures on thoo noils 10 to 20 tona
per aero will lvo wonderfully Increased returns, particularly on Much

On thq Irrigated lands whore barn ynrd manure la not nvntlablo In

Increasing tho nttrogon nnd humua content, may be ukoiI with groat profit
