Some Facts About Potash
jy/TABH is higher than last year because of,scarcity brought about by war in
ISuippe a<nd recent decree- by Germany entirely prohibiting further exports, but
the increased cost, if proportioned to the amount of fertilisers used per acre, ia
aarnaUiicra.
For Potash in mixed goods, our charge at thia time is at the rate of $1.50 per
unit potash (present market price $3.50 to $3.00 per unit) :-in, comparison with
$1.00 per unii last season. A diff?rence of only 50c. per unit Thia increased cost,
per acre bf land, ii insignificant, as you will see by the following:
POTASH GOODS-Increase 50c per Ton for Potash
.00 lbs. Fertiliser per acre...
500 lbs. Fertiliser per acre.
.Cost of potash 5 c. more than last yarr.
.Coat of potash 7?c. more than last year.
...Cost of potash 10 c. more than last year.
...Go?t of potash 12Jc. more than kat year. ,
' 3% POTASH GOODS-Increase $1.00 per Ten for Potash
. 200 lbs. Fertiliser per acra.,.. , , Cost of potash 10c. more than last year.
300 lbs. Fertiliser per acr*?~-.Cost of potash 15c. mo'd than last year.
400 lbs. Fertiliser per acre.-.Cost of potash 20c. n> jro than last year.
500 lbs. Fertiliser per acrs,^._Cost of potash 25c. more than last year.
This is a Very ?mall increase in charge for Pot&sh when you consider that Muri?
ate or Fotash is now selling at about SJ 2^.00 io $150.00 per ton (equivalent to $2.50
to $3.00 per unit ci Potash), nt perts, for cash in large quantities, whereas our present
charge of $1.50 per unit is for goods delivered, time payment.
Our price per unit of Ammonia delivered is $3.25 against $3-50 last year. A
r?daction of 25c. per unit, although Cotton Seed Meal is now Beijing approximately
at tile rate of $3.40 to $3.50 per unit of Ammonia. Our charge per unit for Avail
able Phosphoric Acid is tho same as last year,-60c. per unit.

Ordinarily you would not risk growing your Crop
without Potash. Why do so this year when the coat per
acre is so little more than in previous year?? Can you
afford to take such a chance?

New Orleans Cotton.
NEW ORLEANS, March 4.--Cotton
felt selling during nearly tho whole
of toda v's session. In the morning
th? trading months lost 8 to 9 points
and later thia was .widened to 13 to
14 points. Profit taking by shorts
brought a partial recovery, but the
close was at a net iosr. ot 10 points.
Considerable cotton was sold by
longs who feared the advance would
result in a larger planting of cotton
than expected, while bears were sell
ers because they thought the paactlon
they have been looking for had ar
rived .
Reporta from northern ports said
thst-SblPpcrs were uncertain over
whst to do about cotton for neutral
countries, but ultimately intended for
Germany, and there were many
rumors of excessive rises in Insur
ance which had a tendency to increase
short selling.

New York Cotton.
NEW YORK. March 4.-Cotton was
weak and unsettled during the great
er part of today's trading with thc
close steady but st a net declino of
from Jl to 14 points.
The opening, was 4 points higher to
2 pointe lower., Prominent spot house
brokers became very heavy aeller?
right after, the call and the market
quickly weakened. A good part of this
selling was first to be due to hedging
against cotton carried in this country
by exporters who feared shipments
to Germany and Austria mlgbt be
found impossible for nome time to
come. .<14*>
There also were rumors of an easier
turn In the interior spot situation, but
later the selling wan more generally
attributed to a bearish view ot a rul
ing made generally public hero today,
which waa taken to mean that sellers
of contracts might deliever cotton on
their own classification by the buy
ers recourse, in the event of dispute,
to be found lu an appeal to the de
partment of agriculture under the
provisions of the United States cotton
future^ law. There was a little trade
buying on the decline, while there wa?
some covering on a rally of some
4. to 5 points from the lowest at the
close.
