Nitrate to Farmers Despite Shipping Shortages Across War Years
Washington Aug. 1 Farmers received 75 000 tons of nitrate of soda distributed by the United States Department of Agriculture under the Food Control Act to boost food production. The nitrate cost 75 50 a ton at ports and was purchased largely in Chile, with 120 000 ton applications noted earlier. Shipments were limited by ship shortages, leaving 35 000 to 60 000 tons on hand in Chile and plans to ship the remainder. Future sales to farmers remain uncertain due to nitrate needs for munitions and war production.
