STANDARD FERTILIZERS
The standard fertilizer usually
recommended for late pot•a,1011),
mangers, and most lute hoe crops,
is the formula 4-8-10 (four parrs'
of nitrogen to eight of phosphoric
acid and ten of potash), This fer-
tilizer certatinly increases the yields
when properly used on these crops.
The rate of appiicaltlin for pota-
toes is from 800 to 1,980 P011 1103 per
ae1e according to the fertility of the
land, and for mangers from G00 to
800 pounds per acre, in addition 10
manure. 2-12,41 is, generally accept-
ed as hire fertilizer for grain putt

Electric Fence

Many 'Ontario Farms
A recent innovation that prom-
ises to change still further the phy-
sical alinear'ance of Ontario's sura)
areas, says the Lindsay Post, is el
metric. fencing,
Back in the days when the land
was being cleared, stumps palled
Or blasted oat bodily were used to
provide barricades and keep farm
stock in bounds. Later came 111e
rail fences, only to be replaced in
large measure ht more recent years
by wire fences, Now comes the
electric fence that is destined net
only to snake the counhya'Ide more
beautiful by virtue of the fact that
a single strand mounted on light
sheer posts planted 50 feet 008l't,
but also will do the job of the more
cumbersome and expensive arm
fence.
Have Healthy Respect For It
With the new electric fence, firm
animals, from the pig that always
has insisted' an rooting underneath
to earn for himself and his racy
an unenviable reputation as a poor
respecter of fences, to old dobbin
who occasionally fancies a jump
over the top rail, Will buickly at

new gadget.
Charged with electricity of low
voltage supplied by a battery, the
fence gives off shocks that are not
serious enough to cause injury, but
winch, it is claimed, mystify the
animals and cause them to remain
at a safe distance from the fence
after cote 01' two encounters.
