& 10 inches of rain fell in

largest number of fertilizer samples | |



The factors iaunliy responsible for

poor plant growth under excess soil mois-
ture conditions are: (1) leaching of fertili-
zer nutrients, (2) inadequate soil aera-
tion, (3) cool soil conditions, and (4) ac-

cumulation of toxic substances in the soil.
High rainfall tends to wash soluble.

fertilizer elements into lower soil depths
away from plant roots. Nitrates are very
soluble in water and leach freely from
soils. Thus, nitrogen deficiency may readi-
ly develop on sandy soils during wet sea-
sons. An additional application of nitro-
gen may be very helpful to certain plants
under such conditions. The same condi-

_tlons are also conducive to the develop-

ment of magnesium and in some cases
potash deficiencies. Excess rainfall can

also limit plant growth by loss of ferti- |

lzers through surface runoff.

Although poor aeration is a temporary
condition in sandy soils under several
days of heavy rainfall, it can be a serious
problem while it lasts. A. high proportion

- of the pore space is filled with water in

wet soils. Consequently, such soils sup-
ply only small amounts of oxygen to
growing plants. Since oxygen is necessary
for plant growth, the poor aeration of

Catfle Fever Ticks
Fought In Florida

Cattle fever ticks, found recently in
Florida for the first time since the State
was declared free of the pests in 1950, are

targets of a Federal-State eradication pro-
gram now under way, the U. S. Depart-

ment of Agriculture reported today.

Cooperating in the program are the _
Florida Livestock Board and USDAs Ag--

ricultural Research Service.

All of Okeechobee County has been
placed under State quarantine, following
the discovery of ticks on a ranch in the
southern part of the county along the
northeast side of Lake Okeechobee, April
23. Ticks have since been found on three
more ranches in that county and on one
ranch in Dade County.

In all, more than 100 ranches in 10

Florida counties have been quarantined.
Premises under the State quarantine in-
clude those to which cattle have been
moved from ranches where ticks were
discovered, and also premises that had
supplied cattle to ranches known to be
infested. Counties involved are Palm
Beach, Hendry, Broward, St. Lucie,

Glades, Highlands, Martin, Taylor, Dade, .

and Okeechobee.
State and Federal inspectors trained

in tick eradication work are inspecting |

animals in the tick-infested area. They
also are tracing the movements of cattle

_ and horses that have been shipped out of

the area during the past several months,
in an effort to prevent the spread of ticks,
Meanwhile, they are trying to determine
the source of the infestation in Okeecho-
bee county.

Cattle and horses in the infested area

are treated by dipping them in an appro-
priate tickicide at regular intervals.

The last outbreak of cattle fever ticks
in Okeechobee County was in the winter
of 1945, when quarantines were placed
on Glades, Highland, and Okeechobee,
and parts of Osceola and Polk counties.

Quarantines in these counties were lifted

in the fall of 1948. That same fall, how-

ever, an outbreak of ticks was discovered

in Volusia County. Further investigations

disclosed infestations in several other
