In the material field, Admiral
Ramsey explained. the major
problem now confronting Gov
eminent and industry is the
shortage of titanium. Although
industry materials experts indi-
cate a requirement of at least
100000 tons by 1860, titanium
production in 1858 was only
1000 tons.
AS to military aircraft produc-
ton, the output was estimated
by Admiral Ramsey's report as
being approximately 10000
units Of all types during 1858.
The industry also increased its
activity in the guided missiles
field as several new types were
being delivered on a production
basis.
The report also said that civil
aircraft production continued at
a substantial rate. Transport
aircraft production was eSti-
mated at about 315 units for the

Helicopter production was at

During the past year, for the
first time. the number of jet
powered aircraft produced by
the American aviation industry
exceeded those with piston
engines.
This was disclosed today by
Admiral Dewitt c. Ramsey,
U. S. NJ, retired. president of
the Aircraft Industries Associa-
ton, in an annual review of the
industry.
During the past year, Admiral
Ramsey explained, the aircraft
manufacturing industry operated
at an unusually stable level of
activity. There were no signi-
cant variations in monthly unit
production as military airplane
deliveries. representing 80 to IS
per cent of the volume of work

it so minute it is exposed to soil

SuperphoSphate is made by
mixing rock phosphate with sui

superphosphate.

Rock Phosphate.

If you farm or garden. you
must replace the phosphorus you
take from the soil. Grain con-
tains the largest part of phos-
phorus absorbed. about IS per
cent of it being in the seed.
Live stock stores about 80 per
cent of the phosphorus comsum-
ed in their bones.
Our first effort to replace
phosphorus was in the form of
bones. In 1853 the English were
writing about the value of bones
in the soil and were using bones
from slaughterhouses. besides
importing 10000 tons annually.
Indians fertilized corn by plac-
ing a fish with the seed, supply
ing the growing plants with q
mixed fertilizer, nitrogen from
the flesh. phosphorus from the
bones.
John Laws, a famous soil con-
servationist, in 1847 produced a
faster acting fertilizer by treating
bones with sulphuric acid. This
was the first commercial super
phosphate. Soon rock phosphate
replaced bones in making super
phosphate. The industry expand
ed rapidly along with the dis
covery of phosphate deposits.
The first mining of phosphate
in the United States took place
in South Carolina in 1868. BY
1880 vast deposits were found
in Florida. In 1894 mining these
deposits was begun in a big way
IN Tennessee. Largest deposits
are in Idaho, Utah, Wyoming
and Montana.
No plants can take in solid
food. Rock phosphate is not wa
ter soluble. Before the plant
