Wool and Cotton Soon to Be

FERTILIZER used on the land. Since
1914 1T has been impossible to sup
PLY all the fertilizer required. The
soil needs phosphate, nitrate and
potash. The absence of any one of
them in the quantity requisite to a
balanced ration for the soil makes
the crop outturn precarious. For
tour years the supply of potash has
been insufficient. This year it has
Deen more plentiful, but the high
price of all fertilizers and the cam
paign to reduce the crop led to farm
ers using "a per cent less fertilizers
than in 1918.
Remarkable weather through Au-
gust and September could overcome
the reduced acreage and the lessen
ed use of fertilizers, but the chances
are the other way. UnfavorabIe
weather--and cotton is peculiarly a
weather crop--would mean something
like a cotton famine.
8 ALL TEE WOOL WE USE DOES
NOT GO INTO CLOTHING. A lot
of it goes into carpets and the other
articles. of manufacture. All the
cotton does not go into garments or
what we generally denominate as
dreds of lines of which the gen.
eral public knows little. A very
large amount goes into automobile
tires. Another considerable amount
goes into belts for harvesting ma
chimes.
General industry will demand. it's

ing, so, will lessen the amount left
for clothing and general furnishings

shortage is as acute as the situation

to break all navy precedents, Such
