rious departments and offices.

Pace was the author, this question
has been made the subject a study
by a committee from the legislature,
and their finding, together with data
and appropriate recomedations will
be submitted to the next session.

ing with filler, Wiiliam Callan, vice

ductions can be ef/ected in the cost
of producing fertilizer ingredients,

acid, concentrated ammonium phos
phate and ammonium sulphate, Cal
lan added. “It is therefore advo
cated that only concentrated fertil
izer ingredients be produced at Mus
cle Shoals.
