is needed by plants is easily lost from 

 the soil. 



It is therefore desirable to supplement 

 the natural manures with other fertiliz- 

 ing materials containing available nitro- 

 gen. This form of nitrogen may be added 

 either in the form of dried blood or in 

 the form as it exists in some of the fer- 

 tilizer chemicals. 



What Natural Manures Lack. 



The natural manures are not only de- 

 ficient in available nitrogen, but i)ossi- 

 bly to a greater degree, in phosphorus. 

 Our soils also are deficient in this ele- 

 ment and, although the use of the natural 

 manures makes up in part this deficiency, 

 the addition of other phosphorus-con- 

 taining materials is essential. Our 

 experiments prove, I think, conclusively 

 that applications of acid phosphate, even 

 in a highly manured soil, result in great- 

 er [)roduction and in better growth of 

 the plants. At the Illinois station, for 

 a ])eriod of three years, we have been 

 able to increase production in carnations 

 more than five per -cent and in roses 

 more than eight per cent by using acid 

 I>hosphate. We have increased produc- 

 tion of Premier roses during the i)ast 

 year almost fourteen per cent by using 

 relatively large quantities of acid phos- 

 l)hate. Steamed bone may be used in- 

 stead of acid phosphate; however, our 

 experiments indicate that the increase 

 in production is not so large. During the 

 last year we have had an increase of 

 about ten per cent with Premier from 

 the use of steamed bone. Precipitated 

 bone gave us results comparable with 

 acid phosphate. In these experiments 

 ample quantities of stable manures were 

 used, supplemented with dried blood. 

 Our results have been corroborated re- 

 cently by the Rhode Island station, 

 where it was found that the use of phoa- 

 jihorus-containing fertilizers increased 

 production of carnations. On the basis 

 of extensive experiments, that station 

 recommends that acid phosphate at the
