THE POTASH FAMINE.
Subject presented By Charles
Warner & Co.

The Charles Warner Co. Of Will
mington has recently issued in a
neat little folder timely article on
"The Potash Famlne,' which it
is distributing over the country.
The article, a reprint from the
Manufacturers Record of August
90, is given in full:
The worlds supply Of potash IS
obtained from Germany, and with
this source of supply now cut off by
the European war, there will inev-
itably be famine of this material
as soon as present stocks are ex-
hausted. According to Wall Street
Journal, the price has already ad-
vanced from 2 cents to Is cents per
pound.
Potash is essential to plant
groWth and is one of the three con-
stituents of a complete fertilizer,
the other two being phosphorus and
nitrogen. Enormous quantities are
used annually by the farmers of
this country, and this famine bids
fair to be a serious matter to our
agricultural interests. There is,
however, way out available to
the large proportion Of farmers.
Almost all soils contain potash
most certain enough for all present
plant requirements, while some
contain large excess beyond these
requirements. AS a rule, however
the potash is in insoluble combina,
tiOns which render it unavailable
or at least only very slowly avail.
able to plants. If the store of pot
ash in the soil could be made avail
able as needed, it would be many
years before the average farme,
would have to worry about the
price Of potash fertilizer and the
source of his supply. Fortunately
an agent is at hand to accomplish
this result.
Lime, in addition to it's valuable
action III neutralizing soil acidity
and supplying the needed calcium
for plant growth, has the property
of rendering soluble and available
to plant life the store Of inert pot
ash in the soil. TO a lesser exten'
it also renders more readily avail
able the soil stores of phosphorus
The following quotations from
some representative authorities vii
serve to establish these points:

tural Experiment Station: eth,
element calcium is a necessary con
stituent of plants; but as almost al
soils contain it in sufficient amount!
for their needs, the action Of lime
is not like that of a direct fertilizer
Indirectly, however. it is an agen

lime liberates potash in an avail
able form in the soil. +" Prob
ably the most representative figure
on this point are those of Frear of
Pennsylvania, who found on nine
soils Of widely different character
an increase in the availability of
potash ranging from o per cent on
muck to 50 per cent on red shale
clay, The average for the nine
soils was 23 per cent, equivalent to
60 pounds potassium per acre.
"Frear found on the same nine
soils in Pennsylvania on which the
availability Of potash was deter
mined, that 200 bushels of lime per
acre increased the availability Of
phosphorus from 16 per cent. on
muck to 14O per cent on lime
stone clay in only one case, that of
black shale, was it's availability de-
creased. The average increase on
eight soils was 43 per cent equiva-
lent to 14O pounds per acre. From
this and other Investigations it is
clear that The use Of lime is espec-
tally desirable on soils rich in iron
and aluminium, but low IN lime.
The net result Of the use of lime is
equivalent, therefore, to the ap-
plication Of potash and phosphate
fertilizers to the soil, not to men,
ton the marked influence on nit
rates. 1t may be remarked furth-
er that this is entirely legitimate,
as the soil store Of food, while not
to be wasted, is not to be boarded;
it is to be used wisely
1t is Of special interest to read
ers Of the Manufacturers Record
that a large section of the South is
particularly blessed with large soil
reserves of potash, which by simple
application of lime can be coined
into merchantable food products.
| refer to the Piedmont section
from Maryland to Georgia. The
blood red soils of this territory are
derived from the decomposition of
granite and other igneous rocks,
and contain relatively enormous
quantities Of potash in an insoluble
form.
1t is worthy Of note that in case
of a prolonged failure of the Ger
man potash supply, and in case our
geologists fail to locate deposits in
the country, there are still sources
of supply available--at price.
Through the Southern Appala-
chians there are immense quanti-
ties Of feldspar, a mineral which
contains large percentage Of pot
ash in insoluble combination. Pro
cesses are available for the extrac-
tion of this potash, and it would
not be surprising if, under the in
centive of the present high price,
one or more Of these processes
would be brought to the stage of
commercial operation.
There are also certain by-pro-
ducts from which some potash
might, in a pinch, be derived. The
fiue dust from cement kilns, for ex-
ample, contains this element, and
1t is, therefore, true that while the
dust from cement plants is highly
disagreeable in towns and villages,
it is of direct benefit to nearby ag-
riculturists.

by which insoluble potash is chang
ed to a form available as plant
food.'
H. j. Patterson, Bulletin ITO,
Maryland Agricultural Station {:
Lime has not only the effect of
aiding in the formation Of unions
of potash which will be held in the
soil, but it also has the ability to
liberate potash from combinations
which are locked up and unavail-
able to plants. This is particular
ly marked when lime is applied to
land containing fragments of field
SPAR"
w. B. Elicit, Bulletin 167, Vir-
glnia Agricultural Experiment
Station: "Nearly all soils, especial
ly clay soils, contain more or less of
the plant food potash in insoluble
form, so that plants cannot use it.
Lime acts upon this insoluble pot
ash and iberates it, making it
available for the growth of plants,
or, as it might be put, 'palatable' to
the plants Most Of the expert
ments conducted show that caustic
lime will act quicker and better in
making potash available if that is
the chief object sought by lining,
than any other form of lime.
"Lime also helps to unlock
phosphoric acid that is in combina-
ton with iron and aluminium, and
so is insoluble. Most Virginia
soils, and especially the Piedmont
soils, are rich in iron compounds.
A chemical analysis may show one
of the fields 10 be rich in phosphoric
acid, yet field experiment may
show that this same soil is benefit
ted more by an application of phos-
phoric acid than any other plant
food. This is because much of the
phosphoric acid in the soil is in
combination with the iron, and
hence cannot be used by plants.
Lime acts upon the iron COM
pounds, making some of the phos-
phoric acid available"
B. H. Hite, Circular 6, West Vir-
ginia Agricultural Experiment
Station: "Lime makes plant food
available. Potash is usually pre-
sent in much larger quantities than
other constituents Of plant food
that are likely to be deficient, and
yet so much Of it may be so secure
ly held by the soil particles that
the application Of a comparatively
small quantity Of soluble potash
will often increase the yield. If
lime is abundant it tends to 'liber-
ate potash, making it more read

E. 0. Fippin, Circular 7, Cornell

constituents whose direct available
ity from the soil particles is most

A Victory For Better Schools.

cause Of better schools il Lee County That issue
upon which every righteous and thoughtful man in Lee Coun
ty could join hands And that the sentiment for
local taxation and the resultant betement Of the schools for
which that stands found almost unanimous support

So many good iii the various contested that one

casting the ballot Thegea victory acheyedfor the schools
should mean much for Lee County.
The Journal has always been glad Of opportunity
tend helping hand to beterschoos and gave its undiyd

daon for the recent victory belongs to those men who SO
pessteny and ably stood at the polls and that every
voter who wished ticket to aid the schools could get
without any trouble. These contributed very largely to
the success Of the better schools movement.
Now for the accomplishment Of the great good that should
