Experiments With Phosphoric Fertilizers lmperimental Farms News) An experiment entitled “A Plant Food Deficiency Study" was con- ducted on four Illustration Stations of the Dominion Experlmental Farms Service in New Brunswick in i939. In this experiment sixteen different manurial and chemical fertilizer treatments were compared in duplicate plots. Thus readngs were obtained from eight replica- tions in each treatment. states R. C. Parent. Dominion Experimental Station, Fredericton. N. B. The fertilizers were applied t0 the turnip crop in the spring of i939 and the effect of the various treatments will be studies through- out a four year rotation of turnzps, grain, clover and tlrnothy_ I-n the series of plots where ‘chemicals were used without ma- nure. 500 1b of 20 per cent super- phosphate increased the yield of turnips 5 tons per acre on the average. The check plots and plots receiving nitrate and potash with no superphoephate were decidedly low in yield. In the series or plots where barnyard manure was used along with the chemical fertilizers the spread in yield due to the fertilizer, was not nearly as pro- nounced as when the chemicals were used alone. , During the years 193i 1932, an experiment com-paring different rates of euperriosphate was con- ducted on five Illustration Stations in Princ Eledward Island. In this experiment the rate of application of the nitrate fertilizer and oi’ the 1.. ‘ asic fertilizer was constant in all lots. while superpmrphate var'e from nothing to 1000 lb. per acre. 1 Under the conditions of this ex- periment the use of 400 lb. super- p L te increased the yield of potatoes by 4'! bushels while the use of 600 lb. of supcrphosphate .gave an increase of ‘l9 bushels over like cberk lot. When more than i000 lb. su 1th: corresponding increase in yield was less. althowih in most instances was sufficient to pay for the ex- tra fertilizer used. Available phosphorous is defic- lient in a great many of the soils Ln the Maritime Provinces. cone- ouently, when phospheric fertiliz- ers are employed. increases in yields [are generally obtained. rphosphate was ured..

It was on Jan. 25 that Prlmg Minister Mackenzie King sprang his surprise dissolution of Parliament, and two days later he fixed the date of the election as March 28. Although the first month of the campaign has produced hundreds of speeches the various parties have been more concerned with tting their campaign machinery n up. eratlon and getting candidates selected than in putting messages across to the public. For the rest of the cam ign on l-increasihg barrage of ora ory will be directed at radio listeners and those who come out to political meetings. while bill-boards and newspaper advertising will carry messages for the voters generally.

If all the flies came out each year, the insect could be easily con- trolled ln this way but a small per- cciiihgc of them live over in the .oil for two and some for three years. Also, as large on area. as pos- sibel should be burned m prevent the insects flying in from surround- ing infested areas. Bushes. shrubs. and other weeds furnish protection for the lfles and should he eliminated as far as pns- y slbc In addition to aiding in the 4 control of the insect this is an excellent cultural practice as is also the periodical burning since both these practices reduce the competi- tion of other plants for food and moisture and eliminate shadi of the blur-berry which ls a great over of sunlight. The sweet fern is one of the most troublesome weeds on blueberry lands It can be practically eliminat- ed aiter a few years b annually cutting off the plants etween July 1st mid Au t 15th. If the cutting is done in ater in the season the weed is likely to increase rather than decrease. The cutting of ald- ers and blrches between the dates mentioned and treating the stumps with common salt is helpful in de- stroying these troublesome plants. In applying an arsenlcal dust for maggot control the first application should be made about ten days af- 9. SOLDIERS’ PROGRESS IN STUDIES WILL BE OETICIALLY RECOBDE, CYITAWA, Feb.
