During his tenure in Congress Mr..

Jackson, Miss, March 23.-Ferti-

will be from thirty to forty per cent
smaller than last year, according to
estimates of local manufacturers and
sales agents.
Up to the present time shipments
are fifty per cent smaller than for the
same period last year. The volume
of deliveries from factories during the
past week has been quite large, almost
up to the limit of capacity, due to the
good weather that prevailed up until
Friday, and the improved condition of
public roads.
Last year sales in the state aggre-
gated 14S,000 tons. Local manufac-
turers express doubt whether sales
this year will exceed 10000 tons
