WE SURE ARE PRETTY
EASY SOME TIMES

We Americans are a clever lot
sometimes. We can out finance, out
invent, out fight and out brag any
thing on two legs, or four legs-or
ON six legs for that matter. But
once in a while We are awfully easy.
Take potash, one of the three alb
solutely necessary elements in rails
ing food. Before the war we bought
our supply from the potash trust in
Germany. During the war We delv-
ed lot and found that i'm one dis
trict in California there were depos-
it's that would last this country for
200 years. Certain rock in Wyom-
ing will supply our need for 500
years. Green sands on the New Jer-
sey seashore contain enough potash
for the eastern country indefinitely.
But experience showed that all were
more expensive to mine than are the
German beds.
But we went at it.
After the war great talk come
from Germany of selling potash to
America for $40 ton. We bit. As
the best price the potashers of this
country could offer was 1925 a ton,
we refused to buy until the German
potash arrived. The American
plants had to shut down. Then, when
the ships came in from Germany, we
were just knocked stiff to find that
the price of the German potash was
$3.50 a ton. That's ALL But the
German potash trust paid 20 per
cent dividend this year, and told its
stockholders that while it had sold
potash below cost to German farm
ers, big profits were still forthcom-
ing by reason of the high prices
charged American farmers.
Meanwhile our own potash aepos-
its lie untouched, the American COM
panies' workmen are idle and money
that could be spent in this coun-
try and added TO the national wealth
is sent to some trust abroad with a
jaw breaking name.
Potash is as dear as ever in this
country. And hard to get at that,
because as little as possible is sent
over here in order to keep the price
up.
