INSPECTION  OF  COMMERCIAL 
FERTILIZERS 


MADE  FOR  THE 
STATE  DEPARTMENT  OF  AGRICULTURE 


The  inspection  of  commercial  fertilizers  reported  in  this 
bulletin  was  made  under  the  direction  of  the  Honorable 
Andrew  L.  Felker,  Commissioner  of  Agriculture.  The 
state  inspector,  Mr.  Eugene  D.  Sanborn,  collected  samples 
of  128  brands  of  fertilizer  materials  which  were  offered 
for  sale  by  dealers  or  had  been  delivered  to  consumers 
between  March  and  June,  1928.  The  general  character  of 
the  fertilizer  materials  collected  is  shown  by  the  following 
classification : 

Complete  fertilizer  96 

Nitrogen  and  phosphoric  acid  1 

Nitrate  of  soda  7 

Ground  bone  6 

Sheep  manure  6 

Superphosphate  (acid  phosphate)   3 

Sulphate  of  ammonia  2 

Tankage  2 

Sheep  and  goat  manure 2

THE  FERTILIZER  LAW. 

The  New  Hampshire  fertilizer  law  applies  to  all  fertilizer 
materials  offered  for  sale,  whether  mixed  materials  in  the 
form  of  complete  fertilizers  or  unmixed  materials  as  super- 
phosphate (acid  phosphate),  nitrate  of  soda,  ground  bone, 
tankage,  etc.  Under  the  provisions  of  the  law  every  manu- 
facturer or  dealer  who  shall  sell  or  offer  for  sale  any  fer- 
tilizer material  shall  furnish  with  each  lot  or  package  a 
clearly  printed  statement  certifying  the  brand  name  under 
which  it  is  sold,  the  name  and  address  of  the  manufacturer, 
the  number  of  net  pounds  the  package  contains  and  a 
chemical  analysis  stating  the  minimum  percentages  of 
nitrogen,  of  total  phosphoric  acid,  of  available  phosphoric 
acid  and  of  water  soluble  potash.  No  person  shall  sell  or 
offer  for  sale  any  pulverized  leather,  hair  or  wool  waste, 
peat,  garbage  tankage,  or  any  inert  material  whatsoever, 
without  an  explicit  printed  statement  of  the  fact  conspicu- 
ously fixed  to  every  package  of  such  material. 

The  state  official  in  charge  of  the  administration  of  the 
fertilizer  law  is  the  Commissioner  of  Agriculture. 

In  Table  I  are  given  the  grades  of  complete  fertilizers 
collected,  the  number  of  brands  found  in  each  grade,  the 
average  analysis  of  each  grade  and  the  average  retail  price 
per  ton.

CONFORMITY  TO  GUARANTEE 

Fifty-five  of  the  128  brands  analyzed  were  found  to 
contain  less  than  the  guarantee  of  one  or  more  of  the  three 
constituents.  The  total  number  of  guarantees  on  the  128 
brands  was  444,  the  total  number  of  deficiencies  87,  the 
per  cent  deficient  19.6.  This  shows  some  improvement  over 
last  year  when  the  corresponding  per  cent  was  24.5.  Many 
of  these  deficiencies  were  comparatively  negligible,  however, 
the  small  deficiency  in  one  constituent  being  offset  in  value 
by  overrun  in  other  constituents. 

A  detailed  summary  of  the  deficiencies  in  the  55  brands 
which  failed  to  meet  their  guarantees  follows :

NITROGEN  DEFICIENCIES 

Seven  brands  of  nitrate  of  soda  and  two  brands  of  sul- 
phate of  ammonia  were  analyzed.  All  met  their  guarantee. 
One  hundred  fourteen  brands  were  guaranteed  to  contain 
nitrogen  in  amounts  varying  from  0.82  per  cent  to  8.22 
per  cent.  Twenty-two  of  these  failed  to  meet  the  guaran- 
tee. Six  were  below  the  guarantee  by  less  than  one-tenth 
per  cent.  Seven  were  below  by  more  than  one-tenth  per 
cent  but  less  than  two-tenths  per  cent.  Five  were  below  by 
more  than  two-tenths  per  cent  but  less  than  three-tenths 
per  cent.  Two  were  below  by  more  than  three-tenths 
per  cent  but  less  than  four-tenths  per  cent.  One  was 
below  by  more  than  four-tenths  per  cent  but  less  than 
one-half  per  cent.  One  failed  to  meet  the  guarantee  by 
0.54  per  cent.

PHOSPHORIC  ACID  DEFICIENCIES 

Three  brands  of  sixteen  per  cent  acid  phosphate  were 
analyzed  and  found  to  meet  the  guarantee.  One  hundred 
fifteen  other  brands  were  guaranteed  to  contain  phos- 
phoric acid.  Twenty-nine  of  these  were  deficient  in  total 
phosphoric  acid  and  eighteen  in  available  phosphoric  acid. 
Eleven  failed  to  meet  the  guarantee  of  total  phosphoric 
acid  by  less  than  one-fourth  per  cent.  Thirteen  were 
more  than  one-fourth  per  cent  below  but  less  than  one- 
half  per  cent.  Four  were  more  than  one-half  per  cent 
below  but  less  than  three-fourths  per  cent.  One  was 
more  than  three-fourths  per  cent  below  but  less  than  one 
per  cent.  Seven  failed  to  meet  the  guarantee  in  available 
phosphoric  acid  by  less  than  one-fourth  per  cent.  Three 
were  more  than  one-fourth  per  cent  below  but  less  than 
one-half  per  cent.  Six  were  more  than  one-half  per  cent 
below  but  less  than  three-fourths  per  cent.  Two  were 
more  than  one  per  cent  below. 

POTASH  DEFICIENCIES 

One  sample  of  muriate  of  potash  was  analyzed  and 
found  to  meet  the  guarantee.  One  hundred  six  other 
brands  were  guaranteed  to  contain  potash  in  amounts 
varying  from  2.00  per  cent  to  14.00  per  cent.  Eighteen  of 
these  failed  to  meet  the  guarantee.  Ten  were  deficient  by 
less  than  one-fourth  per  cent.  Five  were  deficient  by 
more  than  one-fourth  per  cent  but  less  than  one-half  per 
cent.  Two  were  deficient  by  more  than  one-half  per  cent 
but  less  than  three-fourths  per  cent  and  one  was  deficient 
by  more  than  three-fourths  per  cent  but  less  than  one 
per  cent. 

In  the  tabulation  of  the  analyses  in  the  following 
pages  deficiencies  of  two-tenths  of  one  per  cent  or  more 
are  shown  in  Italics.  The  names  of  the  manufacturers 
are  arranged  alphabetically,  and  under  the  manufacturer 
the  different  brands  are  arranged  alphabetically  or 
numericallv  by  formula.
