Fertilizer Proves Profitable for Duster Cotton Grower
J. D. Holmes of Duster, Alabama origin, championed commercial fertilizer and crop rotation in Comanche County. He reports yields near a half bale per acre on 55 acres, with maize intercropping on 20 acres, and expanded fertilizer use to about ten car loads planned for this spring. Holmes mixes two sacks 20 percent acid phosphate with one sack 15-5-5, applies fertilizer before planting, and, alongside pest control, maintains a four- to five-cultivation routine aided by calcium arsenate. His 140 acre farm features a modern home, garage, shop, brick potato house, substantial livestock, and eight 4-H Club children active in the community.
