and one half million tons to
users by the first or next Jan-
uary. This pre-seasonal deliv-
ery would be about one million
tons move than were handled
in the fame peiiod one year
ago.
This acute situation especial-
ly a folds Texas farmers who
must have the bulk of their
fertilizer on hand in early April
In addition to slower handling
by railroads, trucks are wear-
ing hut and deliveries by that
means hre becoming increasing-
ly uncertain. For Inese reasons
he urges farmers to place or-
ders immediately and accept de-
livery as quickly as they can
be made. Ir no o*her way can
they be assured of a proper
supply cf fertilizer which plays
so large a part in the produc-
tion of food and feed urgently
needed in winning the war

Miller says that demand for
fertilizer has risen regularly
during the war years. It is ex-
pected that farmers over the
nation will need about 12,000,-
090 tons rcoming crop year,
or about a half million tons
more than in 1944. He points
out that if the manufacturers
and distributors are to handle
this great volume so that the
farmers will have a fair share
at cropping time it will be nec-
essary to deliver about four
