LABOR SHORTAGE THREATENS
PRODUCTION
The Fertilizer Industry Hard Hit by
the War.

The supply of fertilizer for 1919
spring sown crops is threatened by
-rortage of labor in the fertilizer fac
cries. This fact is of particularly Sc
ous import to the potato farmers of
ne country, for the great potato sec
ions are coming more and more to de-
lend on fertilizer for the economical
reduction of this crop. Thus it hap
pens that the very factor which pre-
nts factories running to full capac-
ity also has effect in preventing farm
ers from using their own depleted farm
labor supply to best advantage. Labor
cannot be used to advantage on those
fields which can give but half crop.
The fertilizer industry is normally
of February the factories are normally
in full blast, producing fertilizer for
use on spring crops. Then they "die
down" again for period of several
months in late spring and early sum-
mer. This requires a large floating
supply of labor, supply which has
largely been eaten up by demands Of
dHu
Transferring the industry from a
seasonal basis to full II months op-
Grating basis will certainly be econOm-
1cal Of labor. The factories can then
work at somewhat diminished daily
capacity for more weeks in the year,
and in this way get out the necessary
tonnage. 1t can't be done at once
however, because factories do not have
storage space enough to allow Of this
Goods must be shipped out almost as
fast as they are made-so that the
greatest possible output by the re
stricted supply Of labor may be as
sured.
If fertilizer users the country ovel
will order early, through accustomed
channels, and agree to take the goods
from the car on arrival, much may bt
done to help insure a sufficient supply
for next springs business. Early or
dering, however, means NOW.

SOih NbSiS"I fAi will
hogs and fat steers must later on be
marketed at the same time-to the
disadvantage of all concerned.
But-why grow soft corn, when a
crop of hard corn costs less per
bushel?
Corn is planted when the soil Is still
cold, and just after the soil has been
leached by the winters rains. Avail
able plant food in the soil is lacking.
The reserves in the seed are soon ex-
hausted, and then the plant "hangs
fire''-makes no growth, remains small,
spindling, and sickly-until such time
as the weather warns up and soil
plant food begins to become available.
Available plant food. especially avail

growth started early in the season.
Later On In the summer poorly fer
tilized corn once again "hangs fire"
1t waits, and waits, and is eternally
slow In ripening its seed. Too often
such crop is caught, still immature,
by the first killing frOsts of the season.

n tremendous aid In ripening up the
corn quickly and surely.

THE WORLD SHORTAGE
of LIVE STOCK

A census of cattle in France
reveals q decrease of II per
cent In beef animals, 3S per cent
In sheep and 40 per cent in hogs
since December 81, 1913. Italy
has suffered a loss of 21 per
cent of horses, 18 per cent for
mules, and 8 per cent for swine.
No one can even guess what the
decrease in Germany, Austria,
and Russia has been, but it must
be enormous. According to a re-
liable estimate the decrease OF
live stock In all Europe is equal
to one-half the amount of live
stock in America today. This
estimate places the loss at 1OO,-
000,O0 head.
