new ENGLAND'S POTASH.

Enough to Supply Agricultural Needs
OF This Country For Centuries.
There is enough available potash In
New England to supply the agricul-
tural needs Of this country for many
centuries, says writer in the New
York Sun. These many deposits will
average from Z to IA per cent potash
The balance of the rock carrying this
potash is all necessary for plant
growth.
All that Is needed to bring this
potash to the farmer Is to mine the
rock and pulverize 1t finely, not less
than 200 mesh. and the entire contents
OF the rock when mixed with the soil
Will become available for plant life
rs fast as any form Of vegetation can
consume 1t with the application OF
varying amounts for different crops
as some crops require more potash
than others.
The agricultural department NJ
Washington has made experiments
with this rock for the last fifteen
years and has demonstrated the solu.
bility and availability of the potash
when used as above and has produced
equally as good crops with this form
Of potash as they have been able to
produce with the German potash salts
that are supposed to be immediately
soluble In water.
The writer has made personal ey
animation Of about 100 Of these de.
posits in New England and ha~ also
made many practical and scientific
tests on growing crops in comparison
with the German potash. proving with
out question that this source Of pot
ash was superior in every way to the
German product
There have been several scientific
theorists Of late who have claimed
patented processes whereby they could
extract the potash from this rock so
that it could be supplied to the farmer
or fertilizer manufacturer In n con-
paratively pure state.
For the last seventy-tive years. up to
about five years ago. practically all of
the farmers in this country and most
Of the agricultural scientific theorists
knew positively that all the soil need
ed were phosphoric acid nitrogen and
potash. but recently we hear OF II great
many other plant food elements that
Increase the crop yield and build up
the soil to healthier and more pro
ductive condition than was ever
thought possible. and many of them
are now being used by the practical
agriculturist with marked success.
The Wisconsin Agricultural college
after many experiments has discovered
that sulphate of iron is wonderful
soil restorer and crop producer France
has also discovered that sulnhate of
iron in many cases applied at the rate
Of 400 pounds to the acre increases
production from 30 to 100 per cent.
Magnesia has recently been claimed
by many practical agriculturists to be
plant food Of great importance. 1t is
rapidly becoming well known fact
that all plants must have ut least
twelve mineral elements In sufficient
quantity If Il maximum crop is to be
harvested.
