Soybean Meal Cheap Source Of Nitrogen Prof. C. B. Williams, head of the agronomy department of State Col lege, recommends soybean meal as a source of organic nitrogen in mix ed fertilizers. He points out that it is cheaper than many other standard sources of this most necessary part of fertilizer formulas. In answer to numerous questions about the value and comparative cost of soybean meal, Prof. Williams issued the following statement: "During the past month a goodly number of inquiries have come to me with reference to the value of soybean meal as a source of organ ic nitrogen in mixed fertilizers. From the information which is available, this material is an excel lent source, standing in excellence with such standard carriers as cot tonseed meal, fish scrap "From quotations which I secured the nitrogen contained in soybean meal, retailing at $27 per ton, cost 16 cents per pound while the nitro gen derived from cottonseed meal at $29 per ton cost 21 cents per pound. "A considerable tonnage of soy beans have been crushed by the cot tun oil mills of the State this year, making available their fine source of organic nitrogen for use by North Carolina farmers. At present prices, so far as our information goes, soy bean meal is the cheapest source of organic nitrogen and cottonseed meal is next. Dried blood and fish scrap are more expensive carriers of this essential plant food. "Soybean meal has been tried out as a source of part of the nitrogen in the fertilizer mixture on many of the leading crops grown in the State, such as cotton, tobacco and small grains, and its use has given excellent results."
