Fertilized Corn Needs One-Fourth As Much Water CHICAGO Only one-fourth as much water is needed to pro- duce a bushel of fertilized corn ; as unfertilized corn, reports Dr. I B. N. Driskell, University of Kentucky soils specialist, in a ! statement cited here by the Midwest Regional office of the National Plant Food Institute. "Properly fertilized corn yield ed 79 bushels per acre in a test," says Dr. Driskell, "compared with only 18 bushels for the un fertilized corn." "But the fertilized corn used only 16 Inches of water a season and the unfertilized 14 inches. This tigures out to 5,000 gallons of water per bushel for the 79-1 bushel crop and 21,000 gallons i per bushel for the unfertilized I crop. I "The roots of fertilized corn i go deeper and use more subsoil. A higher stalk population in the fertilized field slows down air speed and reduces evaporation per stalk. "Moreover, fertilized corn's rapid growth increases shade and lowers the temperature of the, soil and of the leaves. This reduces evaporation. In addi tion, proper fertilization hast ens maturity of the corn plants, so there is less competition from weeds for available water sup plies."
