Effect on Fertilizers.

w. H. Bowker, director of the
American Agricultural Chemical
Co., says:
AT this moment I do not
think that the European war can
h ave any serious effect on the
consumption of fertilizers in this
country, nor any material effect
upon the earnings of the fertiliz
er industry. 1t is true that Ger
many controls the sole source Of
available potash of the world.
Pot ash for agricultural purposes
is not c0ntre5Laof. +. IS ee
mendous source of profit ami
revenue to Germany. She may
let it out and she may not. If
she lets it out there is a question
if we can get ships sailing under
neutral flags to bring it to this
country.
This country is the home of
phosphate, which is the basis of
fertilizers. Germany imports
our phosphates extensively.
This country also has good
supply of sulphur for the manu-.
facture of sulphuric acid, with
which to dissolve the phosphates
and make them available for
immediate crop assimilation. 1t
also produces a large amount of
nitrogen-bearing products. such
sulphate of ammonia, fish and
meat tankages, seed meals, etc.
1t is dependent upon Chile for
its nitrate of soda. Nitrate of
soda for agricultural purposes is
not contraband and Chile should
let it out freely, but the question
IS, can we secure neutral vessels
to bring it to this country?
Knowing that we have suffi-
cient phosphates, and assuming
that we shall obtain sufficient
nitrogen, there is every reason to
believe that the sale of nitrogen
Gus, soluble, phosphate fertiliz.
ers will be equal to that of any
year, and there is every reason
to believe that profits will not
be impaired" The Wall Street
Journal.
