Smoke Being Used To Produce Three Nitrogen Fertilizers ' There's nothing quite so difficult to catch, as a handful of smoke. . , but research, chemists have found ways to capture . one particular type of smoke ana change it Into nitrogen rich fertilize and, clean the ait as well! In the process they have established estab-lished a common bond between Utah coal miners and Utah farmers. Smoke from Utah coal is helping to produce three high-strength nitrogen nit-rogen fertilizers at a new Nitrogen Plant near Provo, Utah. First of its kind at a major American steel mill the plant is located at U. S. Steel's Geneva Works. ' ' . TThe-fertilizers ar derived, as are gether not only Utah farmers and miners, but complete the cycle back to vegetation in huge prehistoric prehis-toric swamps which for m e d the coal we use today. t .

Fertilize Take Soil Samples Now is a good time to take soil samples from your f elds, according- to E. D. DeRemer, Western Regional Agronomist with the National Na-tional Plant Food Institute. "Armed with the test information about your soil's nutrient needs, you can make fertil zer applica-c.ons applica-c.ons this spring and plan your fjrt.lily program for high profit . iiatio:is in the coming years." Ca-e in tak ng soil samples is essential. es-sential. So 1 tests can be only as ood as ihe sample you S3nd to the laboratory. Poor samples cause the greatest errors In soil testing. Soli scientists suggest these steps for tp.king samples: 1. Select an area that is uniform n color and soil texture and has had a similar cropping and ferti- the surface to plow depth. Take 10 to 14 such cores over an area not exceeding 10 acres. 3. Mix the cores representing one soil area thoroughly in a clean pail. Spread out the f nal mixture to dry. Use enough of this mixture to fill one soil carton. A pint of soil Is needed for soil testing. 4. Stay away from fertilizer bands in row crops, from farm lanes, eld borders, sand ridges and areas within 100 feet of gravel roads. - 5. Avoid mixing soils that are light and dark colored, or those that have a different cropping history his-tory or past fertilizer treatment. "You can get soil sampling instruction, in-struction, forms to fill out and shipping ship-ping containers from your county agent or local fertilizer dealer," the ! Institute notes.
