CHEMICAL CROP NUTRIENTS
TOO MANY ARE POISONOUS
"The more the merrier" is not
the ride in applying agricultural
chemicals, unless a farmer wants
to poison his farm's water supply,
warns Professor L. R. Webber„
Ontario Agricultural College
Soils Specialist.
Those nutrients not utilized by
a plant often go into the ground
water," explains Professor Web-
her, "and when enough nitrogen
seeps into farm ponds (or even
into deep-tiled wells) it's toxic. In
livestock, the symptomS tof nit-
rate poisoning may include an
oxygen deficiency in the blOod,
"Last spring, for instance, one
farmer sent a Sample of water in
to our department for testing
because the cream curdled when
it, was added to his coffee, An-
alysis showed that this water was
extremely high in nitrates. in
fact, if he had irrigated a field
with one-inch application of this
water, ho would have added, over
00 pounds of nitrogen. e(10.1-
Nralent to 270 pounds of amonia
nitrate fertilizer. This is pretty
close to the ferilimer recommend•
ations for growing a good crop of
corn in. his area,"
This year, have your soil test-
ed and follow the recommend,
ations in Ontario DepartMent of

sibly even, a life.
