Alabama Extension Bulletin on Potatoes Cotton and Livestock
Houston County extension agents advise fertilizing sweet potatoes with 100 pounds nitrate of soda per acre a month after planting and maintaining high bed lifts. Cotton pest notes cite boll weevil losses, recommended poisons including calcium arsenate and DDT blends, and sulfur-based zeta mixtures for red spiders. Turkeys are best started in May with 26 to 28 week maturity, and hog production emphasizes high losses before market.
