Attention Called a Decade Ago
BY Sir William Crooks Be-
cause of Shortage of the
Wheat Crop.
CHILL NITRATE BEDS
THE WORLDS SUPPLY
This Will Be Exhausted and
The Sole Solution Now Is to
Manufacture It From the
Atmosphere.

Washington, Oct 3O.-M was not
until Sir William Crooks, the great
British scientist, sounded note OF
alarm about a decade ago, regarding
shortage in the worlds wheat supply.
that serious attention was directed TO
the nitrogen problem.
Nitrate as a fertilizer is the open
sesame to large crops. Consequently
the world has faced for many years a
rapidly increasing demand with a
rapidly diminishing supply. 1t has
been automatic that upon nitrogen de-
pended the maintenance OF the wheat
crop at it's present proportions.
"The population of the world is in
creasing so rapidly" Sir William
Crooks said, that the supply OF
wheat will shortly not be sufficient
to feed it, I predict the approaching
exhaustion of the worlds stock of fix
| ed nitrogen, the great fertilizer for
wheat, used in ever increasing guam
titles.

Ten years has seen such radica
