VENTURA TAKING
600 TONS away

Room for 500 tons of canned pines
and general merchandise, but no space
for bananas, is available in the Ocean
ic liner Ventura, according to radio
received today from Pago-Pago by c.
Brewer & Company, the local Oceanic
agency.
The Ventura had re tons of freight
space when she left Sydney, which
means she picked up ITO tons of cargo
at Pago-Pago. She is expected to ar
rive off port at $50 Tuesday morning,
to steam about 5 p. m. for San Fran
cisco. The Ventura will dock at and
leave from Pier 6.

freight and be moved along with per
ishablc food products. With the adj
justment of the situation, such APP
peals were unnecessary and fertilizer
shipments are now going forward in
plenty of time for use this fall on the
winter wheat crop.
In Germany, fertilizers are given
preference over all other kinds Of
freight with the exception Of food
products and war munitions for the
soldiers Mt the front. 1t is because
Of Germany's attitude toward the
production OF large yields and to
even greater attention to the use of
fertilizers than ever, since the begin
ming of the war, that the Teutons
have been able to withstand the rig
orous blockade and demonstrate that
their country has been able to pro-
duce enough food products to make
them self-supporting. As much fer
tilizer is used in Germany as in the
entire United States, with over
seven times as much land under culti-
walton.
Census reports issued by the De-
partment Of Commerce show that the
United States in 1914 used 1913 per
cent more fertilizers than in 1909.
Of this amount. more than half was
complete fertilizers. The increase in
the'use OF fertilizers to the extent Of
almost fifty per cent in five years in
dicates how American farmers are
setting about to increase their yields
and profit from the high prices being
paid for farm products

The settlement of the railroad
strike prevented what would have
probably been a serious shortage in
next years wheat crop. with result
ing higher prices for flour and bread,
according to experts who have com
piled statistics showing what would
have been the results upon the ma
tional food supply if the fall ship
ments Of fertilizers foS the winter
wheat crop had not been possible on
account of the strike.
Already America faces a wheat
shortage of nearly half u billion oush-
els over last years production, which
has c3used prices to Gogr and which
will probably mean higher prices
than ever for wheat and flour before
next years crop is harvested. With
out fertilizers, next years yields
would be decreased from eight to cen
bushels per acre on approximately
ten million acres. The estimate is
based upon the findings of the In
diana Experiment Station and other
experiments throughout the country,
where differences Of eight bushels
Snd over per acre have been found in
&syor of wheat that has been given
eh average application of fertilizer.
Organizations Of farmers, oranges,
agricultural papers and other agen-
cies concerned with the prosperity of
the farmers were preparing to appeal
to the railroad presidents, the Inter
state Commerce Commission and
President Wilson, to ask that fer
tilizers be considered as preferred
