@ Fertilizer Reguirement 
Responds to applications of nitrogenous 
fertilizer, such as 100 to 200 pounds 
per acre of nitrate of soda, or 3 to 5 
tons per acre of manure. 
On fairly productive land, 150 to 200 - 
pounds of O0-14-6 (20 per cent super- 
phosphate on recently manured land) 
may be used at planting time. 2-12-6 
or 4-10-6 analysis may be more satis- 
factory for less productive soils.
