Wheat Fertilizers Should Be Order
ed Early


ed Early
Farmers who expect TO use fertilj
yer for wheat this fall must order
early, said F. B. Mumford, chair
man State Council of Defense and
dean of the University of Missouri
College of Agriculture, in a state
ment issued May 20 following call
ed meeting of representatives of
fertilizer companies doing business
in Missouri The fertilizer men met
TO confer with NJ. F. Miller, profess
or Of soils, P F. ShrOwbridgeI che
mist and other members of the Ex-
pertinent Station staff, on the kind
of fertilizer needed by Missouri
farmers, The bulk of the fertilizer
which will be needed should be
shipped during June, July and
early August" said Dean Mumfcr d
because a threatened car shortage
during late summer indicates that
later shipment will not be deliver
ed before seeding time. Prepare
tons can be made now for storing
early shipments.
AS a result of the conference it
was learned that the supply OF fer
tilizer materials will be limited to
an increase Of approximately 25
per cent over last fall Increased
spring sales suggest that the prob
able demand will exceed the sup
ply.
Potash is practically off the
market and the small amount that
will be obtainable for fall use is so
expensive as to make its use doubt
full except in some parts of South
Missouri where potash gives a
better response than in other Sec
tons. The principal fertilizers to be
recommended for wheat this fall.
therefore, are acid phosphate, steam
ed bone meal, and those mixed fer
tilizers containing around 2 per
cent ammonia and 10 to IL per
cent available phosphoric acid US
ually without potash.
Acid phosphate is best adapted
TO lands of average fertility and
should be used at the rate of $50
pounds per acre The steamed bone
meal is best used on rather thin
lands, particularly where clover or
grass is to follow the wheat Ii
should be used at the rate of about
$50 pounds per acre. The mixed
goods mentioned should be used on |
the thinner lands at the rate of $50
to 10 pounds per acre, Two hundr-
ed pounds ofany of these fertilizers |
may often be used to advantage.
The high price of wheat and the
great demand upon this country
for food stuffs certainly warrant
the widest possible use of fertilizers
on wheat this fall. While those fer
tllizers suggested have increased
somewhat in price, wheat values
have increased much more. Money
spent for fertilizers is certain to be
a good investment this year, especi-
ally on thin lands and on lands of
average fertility"
