Profit From Fertilizers On Wheat Very few wheat growers in Harron County attempt to grow winter wheat without fertilizers any more, but it is well to draw to then' at. tentton that the use •of fertilizers on wheat is based on, the profitableness of the practice, provided the land IS well prepared and that good seed has been used. This was borne out in the test just completed On' :the farm of Wilfred Shlortreed, Walton. The soil on which bine wheat was grown Is London loam, which is brown loam over greyish mottled stony loam and olay. it is alkaline in reeetion, low in nitrogen, and very low in phosphoric acid and potash, but has, a medium supply of oalcium. In the sprung, Mm. Shcrtreed. re. Ported 'that the crops had come tlhrough the winter exceptionally well, with no winter killing. At that time he could see mo difference in the plots but at harvest time when Wheat was cut, the 2-12-10 yielded 333.3 bushels per acne whine the, un- 6er'tilized yielded 2912, Hence there was a .clear Cann of 4,6 bushel's per sore frons fertiltlzimg. 2.12.10 was iino;tsd at $37,00 cash mud Mr. Short - reed applied fertilizer at approxi- mately 300 lbs. per acre wh0cts would represent an •ion*esbmient of $3.70. With wheat at $4.0'0 per Bushel there was still room far a nice interest on, the money invested. It should he noted that the 'plots where bike wheat was grown were in ar9 especially 1dlch 5ectlie1 of the farm, hence the 'difference between the fertilized avid ''unfertilized was snuck less than would be looked for On the aves;age wheat, field. The sample of wheat wale good and both fertilized and unfertilised, wheat ;weighed approximately 60 lbs. is the bushel.
