South are ehow- Ing deep interest In the new knowledge of rarer elements and their importance as plant foods. The ■’subject of these lesser known elements — impurities, they ere commonly called—gives ne;r. iateresf this season to the subject of fertilization of Southern crops. Chilean Nitrate of Soda, be cause of its natural origin, is known to contain many of these vital impurities. Because it was created during the earliest cen turies of the world’s develop ment, it is thought to contain as many of the rarer elements as sea-water—at least thirty-five of them, perhaps many more than that. Scientists have already discov ered that this natural nitrate gives to crops the important rat er elements—Iodine, boron, cop per, iron, sulphur, mangenese, strontium, magnesium, potas sium, calcium, sodium and lithi um. Authorities are Inclined to believe that these impurities are almost as important to growing crops as the quick-acting nitro gen which Chilean supplies so abundantly. They are inclining also to the belief that these rar er elements combine to form that mysterious quality that has always distinguished the natur al Chilean soda from other ni trogen materials, and made it so extraordinarily effective as a side-dresser for cotton and other Southern crops.
