Acid Phosphate and Complete Fer
tilfzer
Views of two Ohio soil sauthori-
ties, showing that acid phosphate is
the one staple fertilizer for wheat
in Ohio, are given in the September
number of Timely Soil Topics, is
sued monthly from o. S. u.
Prof. Firman E. Bear, writing in
explanation of the five fertilizers
the university and experiment sta
tion workers have agreed on as suf-
ficient to meet needs of wheat in
Ohio this fall. first points out that
all five are high in phosphoric acid,
then quotes G. e. Thorne, chief in
soil fertility at Ohio experiment sta
ton: "Our experimental work at
Wooster and on g county expert
mental farms leaves no room for
any other recommendation than
that the average Ohio farmer give
phosphorus to his fields more liber-
ally than he has yet done. and look
to his clover field and stable for his
supply of nitrogen and for his major
source of potassium until he has sat
isfied the need of his land for phos-
phorus.
BASED upon these experiments,
our advice would be that when the
farmer feels unable to expend more
in fertilizing his wheat this fall than
the cost of 800 pounds of acid phos-
phate, the money should all be ex-
pended in that fertilizer"
IF he is willing to- risk the cost
OF 400 pounds of acid phosphate
and is located on soils resembling
the Wooster silt-loam, the Clermont.
or the Miami soils, he may well put
the cost of the additional 100
pounds of acid phosphate into mur-
late of potash,'
Concluding the pamphlet, Prof.
Bear comments: Complete fertili-
zers have been found to produce
larger yields than acid phosphate
alone. In many cases however.
value of the increase over that nrok
duced by acid phosphate has been
less than average cost of ammonia
ana potash. The question arises as
to whether there is not some means
by which further profit can be re-
aired on the additional expenditure.
Perhaps better methods of farm
management will solve this aues-
ton. Later when the productive
capacity of the soil has been i'm
proved, the farmer can fall back on
the acid pnosphate-manure pro
gram.
Finally there is opportunity to
reduce the cost of complete fertiIi-
GERS by elimination of unnecessary
brands and by buying them in more
mixture"
