As will be noted above, the fer
tilizer manufacturer is charging the
consumer at the rate of thirty cents
per pound for potash, which is $600
per ton or six dollars per unit. The
fertiliser manufacturer can well af
ford, as he has in the past done, to
pay live dollars per unit when he
places only two per cent potash In
his fertilize! and charges at the rate
of six dollars per unit.
Parsons la close tuocta with the
potash situation and the fertilizer sit
uation in the east are confident that
i lie next few weeks will witness the
sale of many thousands of tons of
the product which are stored in the
east. It is expected that the price
to the producer will be from $4.50
lo $5.00 per unit.
