FERTILIZER FROM AIR A FACT
First Plant in America at Nitrolce
Was Successfully Tested Out.

Charlotte, June 13.-In a 2i-hour
pert chemists and electricians. free
nitrogen has been taken from the
atmosphere, wrcstcd by science from
it's hitherto uninvaded stronghold,
and will be made to serve the most
practical service in the enrching Of
the earth so that crops may better
grow and flourish and in replacing
a product before brought from far
away Chilli.
The success Of the severe test
completed in the plant on the Ca

evening marked the beginning Of
new era in the South, an era in
which the highest grade fertilizers
will be compounded not with i'm

atmosphere, where the nitrogen has
existed FOR ages, a valuable element
that could not be separated from
the oxygen with which it is mingled,
although it Is In the air that is
