Fertilizer Demonstration Scheme Enlarged The interest shown by farmers in the Co-operative Fertilizer 'Dem'on- strati'ons which have been conducted since 1929 by the Dept. of Chemis- try, O,AJC. has led that body to in- clude an ever increasing element of experimentation in their dentons'tra- tion, program. The work was started primarily to s'ho'w the effectiveness of various mixitures of fertilizers, under the farmer's own' conditions and ob- servations, but with four years' ex- perience it is Pelt that much valuable 'in'formation can be obtained from these sources. ,The 19313 work will be carried out on 1120 farms in Old Ontario, and the total number of plots will exceed six hundred. The tests, as usual, are be- ing laid down on all of .the standard .crops, but special studies are to ,be made of fertilizers on potatoes, turn ips, alfalfa and: sugar beets. The ef- fect of fertilizermixtures in hasten- ing maturity is a point of special ut- veetigation in the husking corn areas, and their effect on quality is one of the problems to be studied for the potato and turnip growers. An ex- tensive to -operative program is also ,being carried out with the market gardeners in the vicinity of Sarnia, (London, 'Toronto,: Brockville and Ot- tawa. These growers are particularly" interested in problems 'of 'fertility management.
