Analyses of Commercial Fertilizers. ·"
Nrzméer J ,B7'(Z7l{l1S. There were 3IO different brands of g
commercial fertilizers registered from january 1, to August _
20, 1902. Of these different brands, 170 were complete fer-
tilizers, or fertilizers containing all three of the essential
ingredients, namely: phosphoric acid, nitrogen and potash;
38 were acid phosphates, or superphosphates; S contained a  
mixture of acid phosphate and nitrogen compounds only; 42 `
acid phosphate and potash salts only; and 52 were classed as » _
bones or tankage.  
Samples C0/levied and Amzg/zeal. Two hundred and twenty-  
eight samples were collected by deputy inspectors, or were   i`
sent by farmers from various parts of the state; 546 samples    
were those sent in by tirms as ofiicial samples; of these  Kg
samples, 500 were analyzed by the Station. A`?
Results ry' Me Amzblscs. The results of the analyses show
that of the 500 samples analyzed, 55, representing 49 brands
and 23 firms, fell so far below the guaranteed analyses in
phosphoric acid, nitrogen or potash, or any two, or all three
of these ingredients, that the deficiencies could not be

 i accounted for by variations in sampling or analysis. It is
 A probable that in most cases, variations can be accounted for
j by hurried or careless mixing at the factories, or gross mis-
A  takes in shipping one brand for another, but in one or two
_  T instances, the results show a desire on the part of the manu-
  facturer to guarantee a higher percentage of the essential
V   ingredients than the goods contain.
  The great majority of the manufacturers, however, have
furnished in most instances, fertilizers fully up to guarantee.
The following table gives the names of all manufacturers
  legally selling fertilizers in the State this year up to August
C 2o, and the number of samples analyzed of each firm’s fertil-
  izers taken from various places in the State or furnished by
  g the manufacturers.
  The table also shows in how many of these samples there
  was a serious deficiency of either phosphoric acid, nitrogen or
i i potash, and in how many the percentages of these constituents
  are such as to be considered acceptable, from the point of
' .   view of the buyer, either because they equal or exceed the per-
    centage guaranteed by the manufacturer, or because a slight
  deficiency in one constituent is, in the l)irector’s judgment,
  fully made up by an excess in one or both of the others.
  L Under the heading "Relative Value Per Ton," is shown in
  · how many instances the "estimated value per ton" calculated
Q Z; from our analysis, equals or exceeds the value calculated from
, the manufacturer’s minimum guaranteed analysis, and in how
· i many it is too low, reasonable allowance having been made
for unavoidable variations. This table should be carefully
studied. It concisely reviews each firm, showing how the
, ' samples of fertilizers taken from various places in the State
V compare with what was guaranteed. In order, however, to
U see the amount of variations from the guaranteed analyses,
this table should be studied in connection with the table of
results of analyses, which follows this introduction. This
table can be easily referred to, as the names of the firms are
arranged in alphabetical order.

   ·· 4 It is evident from the preceding table that while most of
5  the fertilizers examined ran above the minimum guarantee,
  4 yet a thorough and careful inspection seems essential. It is
' . hoped that farmers will generally take advantage of Section 8
V;  of the fertilizer law, and when they purchase fertilizers, at
,,   - least in quantity, that they will take a sample in accordance
;   with Section 8 and send it to the Station for free analysis.

Q cate signed by himself and witness, or by two witnesses, stating
E  that the sender has purchased the fertilizer for his own use
 . and not for sale, and that the sample was taken in the man-
i ner prescribed in this section. Provided, however, that if
  the person, company or agent shall refuse to witness the tak-
I  . ing of the sample, then the sample may be taken at the time
. 1 of the purchase in the manner already described in the pres-
' 1 ence of two witnesses who shall certify to the manner of tak-

· from one of the bags or other packages sampled to be sent to
I the Director after having received the report of analysis of
Q  the sample, and at the same time he shall furnish to the Di-
t  . rector the name and address of the firm of whom the fertilizer
if was purchased and the amount purchased; and any person
;¥ * having sent a sample for free analysis, under the provisions of
i p this section, who shall, after having received the report of
i   analysis of the same, refuse to furnish the required informa-
Q   tion, shall thereafter forfeit the privilege of free analysis of
if fertilizers under this section. But if any sample shall have
it been submitted for free analysis without all the requirements
  of this section having been complied with, the Director shall
i inquire into the case and may accept the sample for free analy-
· l sis if he believes that it is a fair sample of the fertilizer as it
    was delivered to the purchaser.
    Mz/ues Use·d.—In calculating the relative value per ton, the
  3 following values have been used; _

i § tilizers ........ . .... . . . ,......, . . .- .,r,. 6c per lb.
ltl n Soluble and reverted phosphoric acid in plain acid

twenty-fifth inch square. l\Iedium bone passes through a

fine bone.

Potash in all fertilizers, from sulphate .......... 6c per lb.

sarily that the manufacturers used muriate of potash in fur-

nishing the potash; they may have used sulphate of potash, or ·
other salts of potash, but in all fertilizers where the term .
"Potash from muriate" is used there is enough chlorine pres- _
ent to combine with the potash, either from salt in the tankage
used, or the potash salts used, as muriate, kainit, carnallite, j
etc. As the objection to the use of muriate of potash arises  
from the chlorine present in this salt, it likewise follows that J
chlorine in a fertilizer is objectionable, whether put in with  
the potash or otherwise. The using of sulphate of potash .   _
where there is chlorine present in other ingredients of the I    
fertilizer will not obviate the injurious effect of the chlorine,  
and therefore we take this method of showing chlorine pres-  
ent by designating the potash as "from muriate-" if  
Exp/mza!z`02z (fthe Tab/e. In the table of analyses, following A __»_ i S 
the name of each brand will be found the analysis of the sample "
furnished by the manufacturer at the time the fertilizer was ’
entered for sale and which was accompanied by an affidavit
giving the guaranteed analysis. This is the analysis that is .
marked "manufacturer" in the column headed "From Whom ,
Obtained." If any other analyses of the same brand have ;
been made, they will be found following this analysis. These -
samples have been collected by deputy inspectors or sent in
. by farmers. The manufacturer’s guarantee is printed last in
im/ic figures. J
The figures in the table which are set in bold face type are  
those results which, in the judgment of the Director, were too
low to be acceptable. \Vhere the total phosphoric acid in  
samples of bone is marked with (lt) it indicates that the bone  
contains soluble phosphoric acid. This soluble phosphoric  
acid is an indication of either the addition of acid phosphate   `
to the bone, in which case it would not be a pure raw bone, or    
else that the bone containing this soluble phosphoric acid was —  
not strictly a pure or high grade bone, but contained trashy  
materials, vihich carried with tl1em the soluble phosphoric
acid.
The names of the manufacturers are arranged in alphabeti-
cal order, and all the analyses of the same brand have been
grouped together.
