Washington, D. C., Jan. 6.-Pres- ent agricultural practice prescribes the use of three chemical elements as a "soil amendment" "stimulant for plant growth" or "plant food" as it is variously put. These three ele- ments when applied to the soil in which crop is growing have been found by practice to afford an increas- ed crop yield. They are phosphorous, potassium and nitrogen spoken of by

 phoric acid, potash, and "ammoniates" In the commercial fertilizers phos- phoric acid is found in the form of icalcium phosphat, which is bone phosphate of rock phosphate, usually treated with sulphuric acid to render lit soluble. Potash is found as q salt or salts of potassium, either sulphate or chloride, and the "ammoaiatas," as the inorganic salt of ammonia, ammonium sulphate, the inorganic salts of nitric acid, sodium nitrate, and inorganic compounds of nitrogen, calcium cyanamid, or the organic con- pounds of nitrogen, contained in ani- mai or vegetable refuse matter, cot ton seed meal. abattoir tankage, or fish scrap.
 The usual commercial fertilizers contain these three clements and have the designation of complete ferti- Ilizers." These are sold under various brand names, the various brands ire quently being recommended for par ticular crops. The proportion of the three essential ingredients is varied; as usual thing that of the phosphoric. acid is considerably higher than the other two, which are present in about the same proportion. Thus, for ex- ample, "6-2-2 mixture" contains per cent phosphoric acid (P2C5,) 2 per cent ammonia (NH3), and per cent potash (K2O). It's selling price [ in the retail market is based on it's analysis. Little attention is paid to the source of these ingredients so long as the essential compounds are "avail- able," or readily may be decomposed or made soluble for the use of the plants.
 The Nations supply of these three common ingredients of fertilizer may be summarized as follows: Of phos- phoric acid there is an abundant SUD- ply in the large deposits of phosphate rock in Florida and Tennessee, and the enormous deposits of Idaho, Mon tana, and Wyoming.
 Of Potash, now obtained exclusive ly from the German mines, there is little known in this country outside of the dessicated residues in Searles Lake Cal, and the giant kelps of the Pa cifc littoral. In the latter there is much more than enough to supply the present demands of the fertilizer trade of the United States, the pres ent annual consumption of potash be- ing about 1,25O,O00 tons, of varied composition. At present the kelps are not supplying any of this, since it has not been determined by actual experi- mentation on commercial scale that they can be used economically as
 source of potash. Estimates based on costs of similar operations indicate that they can be so used.
 Of "ammonates" there is a large source in the ammonia produced as a by-product in the distillation of coal for the production of gas or coke, or both. This source is but partially de- veloped, as by the methods most com monly practiced in this country this possible by-product is not recovered. The amount of ammonia now going to waste is almost large enough to sup ply all of the "ammoiniates" now de- manded by the fertilizer trade. The abattoirs supply large amount of tankage and died blood of high ferti- lizer value; bat of these possible by products there is still an enormous loss through the lack of organization slaughter of animals for food.

IRISH POTATOES THE YEAR
 ROUND
M. F. Cox

Fertile soil is absolutely necessary Tor Irish Potatoes. I plant on the best land have. We plant our first crop in February or the latter part of January, if the ground is dry enoupb We prefer the Red Triumph variety for our spring crop.
 We break the land good and deep thorourhly pulverizing the soil. Law the rows off three and one-half feet apart, running twice in same furrow with a long eight inch shovel blow We drop the cuts (preferably with the eyes up) about IS inches in the row
 If we have it, we take well-rotted manure or poultry droppings and scatter along in the furow, covering the potatoes entirely with this.
 We cover the potatoes with the same blow we lay the rows off with. running one furrow on each side of the row.
 We then take turning blow and run the middles out, making the row a high ridge. After this let the pota toes alone until just before they be- gin to come up and just then take a V-harrow and run over the row at least twice or until the soil is in fine condition.
 For the first cultivation we prefer to use double shovel blow run good and deep, as near the plants as pos sible. Hoe, if necessary, to keep down all weeds and grass.
 We frequently use the same double shovel blow for the second cultiva- tion that we use for the first. We al- ways use turning blow in laying the crop by, milling the potatoes up nicely.
 We dig as soon as the vines begin to die, or before any July rains fall on them.
 Select cool dry place where the potatoes can be spread out on the ground and if no July rains have fal- len on them you need have no fear about them keeping, provided they have been handled properly, so as to not bruise them.
 We have the Lookout Mountain po- tato for our fall crop.
 Prepare the land and cultivate the same as for the spring crop. Be sure the soil is as moist as possible and thoroughly pulverized. Lay the rows off, running two or three times in the same furrow.
 Plant the tubers by hand, pushing them down to the bottom of the fur row with the eyes up. Cover as deep as possible with a long shovel blow and turning blow. In order to con- serve the moisture as much as pos sible the fall crop should be cultivated as level as possible.
 When the vines are killed by frost they should be dug at once, or the vines cut off, and the dirt thrown up as high as possible on the rows so as to protect the potatoes from the freezing weather.
 Last year we did not dig our until in January. However, 1 believe it best to dig as soon as the vines are killed by frost, for if not dug then the ground is likely to be too wet later in the season.
 These Lookout Mountain potatoes are fine keepers. Just pile them up most anywhere in a dry place and
