unavailable plaut food III a soil
and in this sense is not an in

has been rather heavily crop

available plant food liberated

to the total amount in the soil

The most striking thing that
is brought out in a careful ex

portioual lack of phosphorus,
commonly spoken of as phos-
phOrlc acid. A normal fertile
soil should contain in the top
inches about 1000 lbs, of

half Of this amount, or about
1000 lbs. per acre In very
