ON FERTILIZERS

The farmers of Christian county
are throwing away thousands of dol
lars every year for useless fertilizers.
The majority of farmers are buying
fertilizers either by the brand name,
or else by smelling it, and the fertis
lizer with the most disagreeable
odor is given preference. Name and
odor amount to nothing in buying
fertilizer. The greatest amount of
plant food for the least money is the
only thing that should be considered.
The favorite fertilizer used in Chris
tian county is one containing l per
cent. of Ammonia, per cent. Of
Phosphoric Acid and l per cent. Of
Potash, and it is used at the rate of
about rs pounds per acre in the hill.
A fertilizer of this description has a
plan food value of about three dead
eats per acre. The l per cent. of
Ammonia is equivalent to .87 per
cent. Nitrogen, an amount too small
to be of any value. Computing Nj
trogen at 20 cents a pound, which is
what it costs in fertilizers, there are
81, ,250, 900 worth of Nitrogen over
an acre of land, because the atmos-
phere is four-fifths Nitrogen. This
Nitrogen can be added to the soil by
leguminous crops free of charge, and
yet farmers are buying it. The l
per cent of Potash is obtained from
Muriate of Potash, which is so per
cent. Potash, so that there are two
pounds of Muriate of Potash in ev-
cry 100 pounds of this fertilizer.
Muriate of Potash is heavy salt,
and will defy any farmer to scatter
two pounds of this material over an
acre of ground ,and even if he could,
the amount is entirely too small to
be of any value. This disposes of
the Nitrogen and the Potash and
leaves the Z per cent. of Phosphoric
Acid, which is the only material that
can possibly be of any value in a
fertilizer of this kind. Farmers are
paying from $500 to $4,000 ton
for this Z per cent. Phosphorus Acid
fertilizer, whereas they can get ID
per cent. Phosphoric Acid, by buying
Acid Phosphate, at a cost of about
l$15.00 per ton in car lots. They car
