GOOD PROFIT IS
FOUND IN KELP
Besides the Commercial Potash
Many Valuable By-Products
Are Turned Out.
EXPERIMENTS ARE SUCCESS
Plant Established by Government in
California Demonstrates Profit

ton on Commercial Basis.

Washington.-Kelp. apparently. is
going to be a profitable source of pot
ash. an important fertilizer ingredient
that the United States formerly OBJ
tanned almost wholly from Germany.
During the wal an experimental kelp-
potash plant was established by the
United States department Of agricul-
ture at Summerland, Cal. Before the
second year of operation was com
pleted it had been determined not only
that the plant could be made Self-sus-
tanning on the basis of potash alone,
At $3.50 n unit, but that a number of
valuable ~by-prOducts could be profit
ably obtained. The chief of the bu-
reau of soils. which bureau operates
the enterprise, estimates that if the
plant turns out $500 worth Of potas-
SUM chloride a day, 1t may at the
same time turn out $3.50 worth n day
Of the four principal by-products.
Many By-Products.
Among the by-products whose COM
mercial obtainability has been estab-
lished are iodine, common salt. am
monia, and bleaching carbon. This
bleaching carbon, formerly imported
from Europe and sold for 20 cents a
pound, has been prepared and sold
from the Summerland plant at 10
cents Il pound and appears at present

son to believe that ii may ultimately

the entire enterprise. Ii has been
definitely established by large-scale
operations that very little of the nitro
gen OF kelp is lost in the various proc
esseS and that ii can be commercially
recovered as ammonia, thus yielding
another important fertilizer element
In this process enough cOmbustible

Under the present system OF

Mr.. Hampton declared In a state
nent, 1T is clear that farmers
have no assurance OF costs OF
production plus a fair profit.
"A most important factor IA,
placing the farmers at the mercy
OF the middlemen." the state
ment continued. sis the relative
ease with which middlemen
hoariers secure credit while far
mers are unable to secure credit
at all. or can do SO only on terms
which render their business on
