More Plant Food At Less Cost
There is demand for higher analysis fertilizer in Eastern Canada. The total plant food matters, not packaging. Fertilizer analysis has risen from 12 percent twenty five years ago to 22 percent now, with grade shifts from 1-8-1 to 2-8-4 and today 2-12-6 or 2-18-9 in some areas. Higher analysis like 3-18-9 or 6-10-12 costs less per unit of plant food and requires less per acre to achieve the same results.

How Is Labor Headed
A sober analysis warns that organized labor may dominate the Democratic party voice after Truman's win. It questions Taft Hartley repeal and cautions that gains for one third of workers could endanger free enterprise and two thirds of the workforce if wages and hours demands trigger widespread shutdowns and price pressures. The piece urges labor to accept responsibility and shared burden without harming the broader economy.
