There’s a crisis in the making!
If stocks pile up in fertilizer plants and agents’ ware
houses, thesptream of supply will choke up. They must
move fast or the lack of man-power will cause a para
lyzing shortage.
Take the Chilean Nitrate situation for example. To
supply the quantity needed for 1945 crops, many car
goes must be unloaded each month at each port, then
moved out by train and truck for immediate allocation.
It must move out of agents’ hands as fast as it moves
in. If not, the choke-up starts and works back to the
ports, even back to the ships.
Already there’s a threatened shortage of nitrogen,
due to sharply increased war needs. Unless you help
smash the bottle-neck by
taking your nitrate as soon _
as it is offered, the shortage Storage Tips
