Book Description
Excerpt from Potatoes, a Money Crop: How to Grow, Fertilize, Spray and Harvest Them at a Profit; Containing the Story of a Profitable Potato Crop On many Farms throughout the country, potatoes are the chief money crop, and if properly raised are not only a source of profit themselves, but also improve the land for crops that are to follow. The great value of the potato as one of our staple articles of food, makes economical production of extreme importance. In preparing this booklet, it is not the writer's purpose to over-burden potato growers with superfluous advice. It is hoped rather to summarize for the friends and customers of the Coe-Mortimer Company and for fertilizer users in general, the results of the writers own experience in raising potatoes covering many years of practical farm life, together with the results of his observation of the best practice of prominent growers in various sections. Soils. Potatoes will succeed on a variety of soils, doing best on a medium to light loam. Early crops of potatoes are, however, raised at a great profit on light and sandy soils, while heavy soils will give profitable crops of late potatoes, provided that such soils are well drained. It is, however, useless to attempt to grow potatoes at a profit on wet, heavy and ill-drained soils. Such soils, however, may be rendered suitable for potato growing by a thorough system of drainage and subsequent plowing in of green crops. In general heavy clay soils are unsuitable for potatoes, the tubers being soggy, poorly shaped, and subject to rot. Potatoes as a rule give the largest yields upon new soils; that is land just taken up from grass or clover. This is not true of all conditions, however, as on heavy soils where the sod is extremely tough, the potato crop may be preceded by a crop of corn.

Book Description
Excerpt from Soils and Fertilizers The attempt has been made so to present the subject that the pupil who has no knowledge of chemistry or other natural science will be able to understand it. No chemical symbols or formula: have been used. Use has been freely made of a limited number of names of chemical substances contained in commercial fertilizers which contribute to the nutrition of plants. These, however, are terms with which the pupil can familiarize himself as readily as with the geographical and other names that he has already mastered.

Book Description
Excerpt from Fertilizers in Relation to Soils and Crop Production Most young plants start from a seed, which contains an embryo, or germ, that is extremely rich in albuminoids, fat, phosphates, and potash. The seed also contains a store of food, in the form of starch, fat, etc, intended to nourish the young plant until the roots and leaves are sufficiently developed to gather their own supplies, The future health and vigor of the plant will depend on: (1) the amount of food available to the tiny rootlets sent out by the young plant: (2) the temperature of the soil, (3) an abundance of sunshine, and (4) a sufficient supply of oxygen. The plant requires oxygen for respiration, and it gives of carbon dioxide as a result of the oxidation of its food, that is, it breathes; it gives off water from its leaves, or lungs, it assimilates food, and it even excretes waste material. In all this it is very similar to the animal. But it even goes further, and collects its food from the simple substances, such as carbon dioxide. Ant. Various soluble salts found in the soil, and from these builds up the complex sugars, starches, fat, and albuminoids which are essential for the life processes of the plant and which are the only foods of the animal. It is subject to im provement by selection and breeding, as is the animal, but, unlike the animal, it is entirely dependent upon the supply of food constituents within its reach, and it has no way of drawing attention to its wants, excepting as its appearance may make them known to the careful and trained observer. A clear conception of the fact that an infant plant, like the infant animal, requires warmth, air. Sunshine, and an abundance of easily absorbed food, will greatly aid in under. Standing the conditions under which it will make the best growth. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
