President Morgan, of Tho Ylrgiujji-
Carolina Chemical Company Says
The Selllag Price is Lower
. Than Cost of MatVrlals
Warrant. -
. " RicnMOND, V., Feb. 1, 1900.
To the Editor My attention has been
called to a communication in the Nuws
and Observer,, published under date of
Wednesday, January 81st, 1900, In refer
ence to the advance In the price of fer
tilizer, Wherelu ir i; Stated ; that the
farmers of Pitt county, North Carolina;
propose to organize and fight the advance
In -the prices of fertilizers. And by In
sinuation, our Company Is censured as
the cause of this advance.
I destie to mako a plain statement of
"facts and conditions as now obtained in
toe fertilizer trade, and to show to the
dealer! and consumers of fertilizers that
the advance in the price of manufactured
fertilizers is not only just and. warrant'
ed but Is absolutely necessary, and that
the manufacturers of fertilizers could
noj afford to sell them al the price ruling
last year "unless they did so at a very
heavy loss, 1 -1 " . , x
Now to get. down to facts and figures;
we will see., what has really caused the
price of ferlilizur to be-advanced, this
year over last: - '' - ' ' ,1
Acid Phosphate wing one of the prin
cipal ingredients lu all complete .fertili
zers, I desire to show here how much
this article costs to make in eneis of
the cost price for the same thing last
year. ' The -.advance In pyrites, - from
which sulphuric acid Is made, is more
thaa (3.00 per ton over last year;.. The
advance in Nitrate, of Soda, which lsa
necessary Ingredient In tho manufacture
of sulphuric acid, is fully $S,00 per ton
more -than last -year.. Phosphate. Rock
has advanced a minimum of ft. 73 per
ton at the mines and in soma grades of
rock-tfae advance is more than $8.00 per
ton. These three articles- constitute
what is necessary to make Acid Phos
phate, Put them together in the proper
proportion and a ton of Acid Phosphate
will cost 62 OS per ton more than it did
list tear. -
; Bags are costing as 30& per ton taoje
than they did last year, so that the crude
miterlal going into a ton of Aotd Phos.
phate Is costing ... approximately i (2.27
more than it did a year ago.". --.
Every piece of factory supplies and
machinery, coal, and everything neces
sary to operate a factory, Is from- 35 to
U0 pet cent, higher than 1 was a year
ago. 'This W'll add certainly, an addi
tional 10c. to the cost ofvton of fertlll
ser, making in the. most conservative
and reasonable estimate possible a ton of
13 per cent Acid Phosphate, bagged and
ready for shipment, cost the manufac
turerrta 87 .moro than It did twelve
months ago.' - -v '
Now let us look at eomplete ammont-
ated fertilizers: W oS will tako what Is
commonly known aj standard grade ol
complete fertilizer, running, lay. Si per
cent of ammonia, 8 per cent of available
phosphoric acid, and 1 per cent of pot
ash. As I have above demdnstrated, acid
phosphate cost $107 more Itau lart
year. This is equivalent to a little more
thai 10c. per 100 pounds. In making the
H, 8 and 1 fertilizers,' 1,100 pounds of
acid phosphate would be necessary, so at
10c. additional cost per 100 pounds, the
addttiodal cost for acid phosphate would
be $1.S0.
It cotton teed meal was used for ; the
ammonia, It would ..take approximately
700 pounds, and cotton seed meal is new
worth 10.00 person more than last year,
Which is equivalent to 80e per 100 pound
and 700 pounds would cost f a. 10 more
than it did last year.;; Now add SOo for
extra coat for the bags' and you have
(3.80 per ton more for the materials than
we paid for these materials last year. :
. If tankage or blood was used for - the
source of ammonia instead of cotton
seed meal, the advanced cost - over last
year would be $3.20 per Wu, as ammonia
from tankage or blood Is noW-OOo per
ttnlt higher than last year, so for ?l per
Cental ammonia the exlre.cost over last
year would be fl.80.;- . f-.
. SulphatcTpt ammoflia Is the only other
source of ammonia commonly - used in
the manufacture" pf fertilizer.. Twelve
months' ago' 'this1 article was selling at
about (13.00'per tori. . We paid for lt
this week (04.00 pef ton.
. Now I assert that tho price of fertili
zers Lai not advanced nearly so much
as the price of raw materials going into
thcru Let Us see who Is to blame If any
one, for the advance of these crude ma
terials. Take Pyrites: 'We buy fiom
Spain more than three-fourths of all we
use, Nitrate of Soda: We buy entirely
from Routh America. I'otaau Balls: We
buy entirely from Germany. Bo lt can
not bo said thai our ompany controls or
Is in any v.Io responsible for the ad
vance of thane materials as wo have no
Interest whatever In any of these prop
erties, eliln-r directly or Indirectly.

Ah f
roduce ab.olulely nothing, except a
small quantity of phosphate rock?
lt is our aim and purpose to manufac
ture fertilizers as cheaply ta possible and '
to sell them at as low a price as we can
afford, thereby stimulating a large con
sumption of fertilizers snd their general
use for all crops.'- i , ; - - -:-
Let us see how the farmer is situated:
lie Is getting this year from 2i to Scents
a pound for his cotton -more, than last
year,yand we understand that for a great
deal of the cotton seed tho cotton seed
oil mills are now paying 25c per bushel.
Are these advances wrong, and. are the
manufacturers who are having to use this
product condemning: the parties who
produce them, simply because the dh
mand is "such that the price has Increased
so enormously ever last year? At present
prices the farmer can sell the cottonseed
from one acre of land and buy as many
fertilizers as he usually puts over two to
three acres, even though there Is a small
advance In the price of fertilizers, caused
by the manufacturers having to- pay
high prices for the materials entering in
to them. " - v
We propose to he perfectly : fair and
candid in our statements and believe
that when an no prejudiced farmer-looks
Into the situation he will realize that he
Is not charged as much for fertilizers as
the cost of materials under present con
dition, warrant'.' . f
