FERTILIZER MATERIALS
CURTAILED THROUGH THE
GREAT EUROPEAN WAR
By C. s. ALBERT,
Special Star Bulletin Correspondence


WASHINGTON, D. G., Nov. Is
The European war has caused the
United States to look about for new
sources of fertilizer material. The
bureau of soils of the department OF
agriculture is looking 10 the Pacific
coast for potash. Its forthcoming an
nual report will say:
While the extraction of potash
from such natural silicates as the field
spars is quite feasible physically, it
Is not practicable economically, I'M
less some other salable product is pro-
duced in the same operation. An in
vestigation into the use of feldspar
in the fiXation of atmospheric nitro
gen showed promise of practical
method of producing ammonia stimuli
taneously with potash from feldspar
The most promising American source
| of potash, however, is the annual crop
of giant kelps on the Pacific coast
Working maps have now been made
of nearly all the commercially avail
able kelp beds from the Cedros ISL
ands to the Shumagins, off the Alas
kan coast. The area Of these beds
aggregates nearly 400 square miles,
capable of yielding annually. either as
dried kelp or as pure potassium chic
ride, over six times the present cor
sumption of soluble potash salts in
the United States, or something more
than the worlds present total produc
ton. The development of a great
American industry. based on the con
servation and utilization of this i'm,
portant national resource. of funda
mental Importance to the national ag
ricultural interests, seems now to be
a matter of time only"
