ready for the plants immediate use,
in the form of Nitrate of Soda.
One ton of Nitrate Of Soda has
more valuable energizing food for
plants than fifteen tons of the average
cheap low grade complete fertilizers,
on which you are paying freight on
inert filler, and it contains more and
better food than you will get in ten
tons of the average so-called h
grade complete fertilizer" Why not
buy the real thing and actually save
big money in cost and in freight?
One hundred pounds of Nitrate per
acre is all you need as starter. Why
not have the substance instead of the
shadow? It costs from rs to 80 cents
a pound in so-cal1ed Complete fer
tihzers," and even then is often in a
form which is not available as food
for the plants, for it must first be con-
verified into Nitrate. The time re-
CURED to do this varies from a few
days to few years according to the
temperature Of the soil and the kind
and condition of the material used in
the complete fertilizer"
It must be recognized that the far
mer should have chance to derive
some profit from the use of fertil-
izer, and wise buying is a prereq-
uisite to successful use

How 1t Helps Crops.

If young pig or young calf does
not have an abundance of the right
kind of feed when it is young it be-
comes stunted in growth, and never
RECEIVERS from it, no matter how ju
diciousy it is afterwards fed. The in
telligent cultivator has learned that
this holds good in the feeding of
plants. Nitrogen is the element which
enters most largely into the building
UP of the plant itself-root, stem
and leaves. Most plants need to take
up most of their Nitrogen during the
early stages Of their growth, as in
oats. 1t is plain, therefore, that the
cultivator cannot afford to overlook
Nitrate, and thus endanger the chanc-
es of his crops which must have Nj
trogen in a form the plants can use.
The presence of Nitrate at the outset
enables the plant to get its food when
it needs it most, and dvelops a vigor-
Gus growth of roots, leaves and stems
capable of withstanding the scorch-
ing rays of the sun or sudden changes
Of the temperature, disease or the at
tacks Of parasites.
Nitrate of Soda is of high value for
early crops, such as peas, corn, beets,
and cabbage, where rapid maturity is
desirable. It is "a special help to hay,

Free Information.

To limited number of farmers
who want to know, the Propaganda,
in addition to bulletinh from agricul-
tural experiment stations, giving re-
suits of actual trials with Nitrate of
Soda, is sending handsomely illus
trated books, which any farmer may
understand, and which should be in
the library of every farm in the Unit
ed States.
Farmers who may not care to make
any Of the experiments, who would
like to know the results that others
have obtained or who desire any in
formation whatever concerning Nj
trate of Soda, should write to Viii
liam S. Myers, Director, John Street
and II Nassau Street, New York.
The Florida agriculturist. [volume] (DeLand, Fla.) 1878-1911, 1907-04-03
How to Learn About It.

The Nitrate mines in Chill are super
vlsed by the government and anthem
tic information is annually circulated
about Nitrate of Soda among those
who should profit by it. For this pur-
pose the Nitrate of Soda Propaganda
is maintained. Advertisements have
been placed in the leading agricultural
papers and Offices established at John
Street and II Nassau Street, New
York, for giving out information in
regard to actual tests made with Nj
trate Of Soda and as to its uses.
The Florida agriculturist. [volume] (DeLand, Fla.) 1878-1911, 1907-04-03
Results on Hay.

For three years samples of Nitrate
of Soda have been sent to farmers to
experiment on. Timothy. In each case
two patches were marked out in the
hay field, side by side-each about 20
feet square, about 100 of an acre.

The Purpose Of the Nitrate
Propaganda.

Free books, bulletins and all desir-
ed information are propmtly forward
ed to farmers interested Thousands
of farmers of the United States have
seen Nitrate Of Soda advertisements
and thousands have written in answer
to them for free books.
No nitrate is sold by the Nitrate
Propaganda; it is maintained simply
to put the facts clearly and accurately
before the cultivators throughout the
country and rapidly they are finding
out that Nitrate Of Soda is the cheap
est and by far the most practical form
of supplying their crops with Nitro
gen It is the only existing instant
ly available heterogeneous Food for
Plants.

HOW TO FERTlLIZE.

Every farmer knows that plants
need food as much as cattle. He
knows, too, that plants cannot get all
the food they need out of the ground
alone. He must supply them with
certain food himself, or they will not
thrive and bear their full yield Of fruit.
Exactly as he supplies hay and oats
to his horse so he must supply Nitro
gen and phosphate to his plants. He
may buy these in the open market ex-
actly as he does his hay or his oats,
or he can buy them in combination
in the form of complete fertilizer"
There is no secret value in the COM
plete fertilizer, it is nothing more
nor less than the ingredients COM
bined and sold at higher price. Nj
trogen is by far the most expensive
as we'll as effective of plant foods,
and it will pay the farmer we'll to stop
and think before he buys it in this
combination form.

mind the cost Of Nitrate Of Soda per
100 pounds, it is very evident that it
pays to use it.

The Best, Cheapest, and
Most Digestible Nitro
genOus Food for Plants.

The cheapest and most practical
form in which to furnish nitrogen to
plants is Nitrate of Soda. In the rain
less region of Chill are stored away
vast quantities of Nitrogen in what
are known as Nitrates-the only form
in which Nitrogen can be utilized by a
plant. The Nitrogen which exists in
organic matter, that is, roots, stems,
dead leaves, weeds, leather, dried
blood, ETC., and also Nitrogen in the
form of Ammonia salts, must first be
changed to Nitrate before it can be
dependent upon conditions of weather
If season is backward or there be a
prolonged drouth this change may be
SO retarded as to deprive the plant al
together Of Nitrate Food at the very
time it needs it most; moreover Nj
trogen in the form of Ammonia salts
leaves an acid residue in the soil. Nj
trate of Soda, on the other hand is
entirely independent of weather and
leaves a1kali behind as soil sweet
ener It is Immediately available TN
der any circumstances, for it is readily
soluble, and Immediately it comes
within reach of the roots of plants
it begins to be taken up by them. 1t
can, therefore, readily be seen that
the practical value of various forms
of Nitrogen ranges from nothing at
all, where conditions of temperature
or soil prevent Nitration, to 100 per
cent in Nitrate of Soda where Mira
ton has already completely taken
place. Moreover, the process of trans
forming the nitrogen of cotton seed
meal, dried fish, dried blood, tankage,
sulphate Of ammonia, and other nitro
genous constituents of complete fer
tilizers,' into Nitrate is very waste
full, for much valuable Nitrogen is lost
in the process, as we'll as by natural
oxidation. Soil experiments have
shown that 100 pounds of nitrogen
in these forms have only about one
half to three-fourths the manurial
value of 100 pounds of nitrogen in its
Nitrated form of Nitrate of Soda.
