Manure is scarce in and around cities Commercial fertilizers nins» lx depended upon primarily for adding fertility to .garden soils It p..ys ti use the best grade of commercial ter tilizers. When the home garden* r ' buys fertilizers he pays for nitrogen. I phosphoric acid and potash, end if he can secure the required amount of, these elements’in a small quantity es material so much tile better as he will avoid the handling of a greater weight upon which freight and other costs have been paid. X fertilizer containing from 4 to 6 per cent, of n'trogen. S to 10 per cent, of available ph >srhoric acid, and 3 or I per cent poti.sh is generally recommended for use on home gardens by specialists :,f the United States Department of culture. One pound to 30 feet of row is equi valent to an application of 500 pounds to the acre. One pound to 15 feet of row is equivalent to an application of 1.000 pounds to the acre, and an ap plication of 1 pound to S feet of row i: practically equivalent to 2.000 ponds of fertilizer to the acre. Commercial fertilizers are high at present and no more than is absolute • ly necessary should be used. Can must also be taken in their applic..- ! tion. as there is constant danger of burning the roots of the plants, m- 1 pecially whore the fertilizers are applied directly in the rows. The best "suits are generally secured where the fertilizers are applied and raked in a few days before sowing the seeds or setting the plants. In this way they become more or less mixed with the soil ami there will be llt’le danger of doing the plants an injur -. I In many sections of the country nitrate of soda is used as a stimulant ’ to force the growth of the plants after' they are started. Nitrate of soda is 1 a concentrated fertilizer furnishing nf ' torgen. that element which makes tb«>' green and vigorous growth in plant... I and should be used sparingly to avoid injury. The usual custom is to scatter a little <1 lb. to 100 ft ), nitrate of soda along the rows of plants and mix it with the soil by means of a hoe or rake. Another method is to dis- ' solve a tablespoonful of the nitrite of soda in a pailful of water and use fhi J solution for watering the plants, ml.. . iug care that onjy a small quantft.- | of the water is applied around each ' plant. It is vastly better to make fre- I qqeut light applications of the nitrate rather than to apply too much at. oile . time.
