An Interesting Exhibit.

One Of the most interesting and at
tractive exhibits at the Atlanta Expo
sition is that of the German Kali
Works, which occupies a prominent
place in the agricultural Building.
One feature of the display consists Of
the crude and manufactured products
of the famous Stassfurt Potash Salts,
arranged with much care and taste in
large glass jars. These potash salts
(of which KANT, Muriate OF Potash
and sulpbate of Potash are most im-
portant) are now used for fertilizing
purposes and hence the exhibit has had
an especial interest for every farmer at
the Exposition. Owing to the neces-
sity of using potash to raise good crops
the demand for this valuable fertilizing
material has grown from year to year
until now over 100000 worth of
potash are sold annually in the United
States. A great part of this demand
has come from the farmers of the Eas-
tern and Southern States, where the
land has become poor and worn out by
continuous cropping.
These and other features ofthe Exhibit
have been a source of instruction for
farmers. As evidence of its practical
value and use, the Exhibit obtained
the gold medal, which is the highest
award, for being the best exhibit of
the kind in the Cotton States EXPOSE
ton, and of the greatest value to the
agricultural community at large.
