The director stated that til e
whole idea of locating the plant
was to select the point in Mis-
sissippi where fertilizer could be
made and distributed at the low
est possible cost to all stockhold-
ers. All studies indicated that
Yazoo County came nearest to
filling this commitment.
The board also heard reports
from two engineering firms, each
of which indicated the plant can
be constructed for at least two
million dollars less than the orig
inal estimates.
A ceiling of $4,000, 900 was set
on the sale of stock for a l20-ton
plant. OF this amount $4,000, 900
has already been sold. Authorize
ton was given to Immediately
offer ST, 1000 worth of stock to
prospective out-of-state buyers
with 100000 being reserved for
sale in Mississippi until April 80,
after which any unsold portion
will be offered outside Mississippi.
Indications are that the plant
can be put into production with

point for statewide distribution,
low taxes, potential water trans
