 ‘Is the 52nd annual fertilizer bulletin pub-
f? in compliance with the Texas fertilizer law,
i requires that the State Chemist shall issue
5 t one bulletin annually setting forth the
ses of fertilizers made under the provisions
.3} fertilizer law, the operations of the law
3i her information pertaining to the sale of
p er in Texas.

 E REQUIREMENTS OF THE TEXAS
i FERTILIZER LAW

i‘; he law governing the sale of commercial
‘zers in Texas is found in Chapter Twelve
'tle Nineteen of Vernon’s Revised Criminal
} s, 1925, and in Chapter Five of Title Four
frnon’s Texas Civil Statutes, 1925. A sum-
~ of some important requirements of the
pollows. For further requirements, penalties,
'tions and other detailed information, refer-
should be made to the full text of the law,
é, will be furnished by the State Chemist
 request.

 ‘als Covered by the Law

I  l mixed fertilizers, fertilizer materials and
s er substances which have or are claimed to
Ta beneficial effect on the soil or to promote
iowth of crops, come under the law, with the
tion of lime, limestone, marl, agricultural
; I , unground bones, stockpen manure, barn-
* manure and the excrement of any domestic
~: in case that said manure or excrement has
w dried or manipulated or otherwise treat-
bis not claimed to have a value of more than
I a ton.

4 ration

efore a fertilizer is offered for sale in‘
 it must be registered with the- State
"st of Texas. All registrations expire on
_.; 31 of each year, and new applications for
 tion must be submitted for each year.
i: tion blanks for registration are furnished
e State Chemist, College Station, Texas,
I request. The application blank must be
h out and sent to the State Chemist together
a copy of the printed bag or tag to be used.
a bag or tag must meet the requirements of
rtilizer law. Wording on the application for
ration must agree exactly with the wording
I printed bag or tag, and no change may be
tin the wording on the bag or tag after it
ji‘ registered. Any such change requires
i, registration.

T. yses of Commercial Fertilizers Sold During 1953 -54

J. F. FUDGE, STATE CHEMIsT, and T. L. OGIER, CHEMIsT

The application for registration must state
all of the materials used in the fertilizer, including
the filler or conditioner, and these materials must
be used in all batches. A change may be made
only if the change meets the requirements of the
law and the State Chemist is notified.

No brand name identical with or so similar
to a brand name previously registered by another
manufacturer as to lead to confusion can be
accepted. No name which is misleading as to
the ingredients of the fertilizer can be accepted.
The grade of mixed fertilizers should be part of
the brand name; for example, Jupiter Brand 20
Percent Superphosphate or Mars Brand 5-10-5
Fertilizer.

Labels

The_ law requires the following information
to be printed on the bag or on a tag attached to
the bag:

Net weight of contents of the bag.

Name of fertilizer in full.

Name and address of manufacturer, manipulator or
guarantor.

Guaranteed analysis (in order given below):

Nitrogen, percent.
Available phosphoric acid, percent.
Potash, percent.
Nitrogen refers to the total nitrogen (N)
present. Such_terms as “ammonia” or “equiva-
lent to ammonia” cannot be used.

Available phosphoric acid (P205) must be
guaranteed in all mixed fertilizers and in all
fertilizer materials, with the following exceptions.
Total phosphoric acid may be guaranteed in bone
meal, tankage or other similar products, but
where this is done, no guarantee of available
phosphoric acid can be used. If it is desired to
claim available phosphoric acid only, the guar-
antee must take the form set forth above.

_ _Potash (K20) refers to potash soluble in
distilled water. No other guarantee or term can
be used.

Inspection Fees

To finance the inspection of fertilizers and
the collection and analysis of official samples of
fertilizer, experiments relative to the value of
fertilizers, and for certain other purposes, the
law imposes an inspection fee of 25 cents per
ton on all fertilizers sold or offered for sale in
Texas. This fertilizer inspection fee must be
paid on the basis of and accompany sworn quar-
terly statements of sales, due in the office of the
State Chemist on the first day of September,
December, March and June.

3

Bulk Sales

Fertilizer in bulk for manufacturing purposes
can be shipped only to the factory of a manufac-
turer who has registered fertilizer for sale in
Texas.

Fertilizer in bulk cannot be sold to dealers
for resale or distribution.

Registered fertilizers may be sold in bulk by
manufacturers to persons, individuals or firms
for their own use on their own lands, but not
for resale or distribution, under rules prescribed
by the State Chemist. The inspection fee must
be paid on all such sales. All authorizations to
sell fertilizer in bulk expire August 31 of each
year.

Report of Sales

The guarantor must mail a report of each
sale or shipment of fertilizer within or into Texas
to the State Chemist within 3 days after such
sale or shipment. The report must be made by
sending to the State Chemist a copy of the invoice
used in billing the customer. The invoices must
be numbered, and the same number cannot be
used twice during the same year. Reports of
sales in bulk to manufacturers must be marked
“for manufacturing purposes.” Reports of sales
in bulk to individuals for use on their own land
must be marked “bulk sale to consumer.”

FERTILIZER GRADES APPROVED
FOR 1954-55

The grade of a mixed fertilizer is stated in
numbers representing the guaranteed analysis as
percentages of nitrogen, available phosphoric
acid and water-soluble potash. For example, a
grade of 5-10-5 means that the fertilizer is
guaranteed by the manufacturer to contain 5
percent nitrogen, 10 percent available phosphoric
acid and 5 percent Water-soluble potash. Fertili-
zers are frequently referred to by these numbers,
which form a short and accurate description of
the fertilizer. The term grade may also refer to
the percentage of a constituent in a fertilizer
material, as in 20 percent superphosphate.
Wherever practicable, the grade of a fertilizer or
fertilizer material should be included as part of
the full name of the fertilizer required on the
bag or tag.

Fertilizers may also be described by a
numerical statement expressing the relation
among the principal constituents in its simplest
form, called a ratio. For example, a 5-10-5
fertilizer contains 1 part of nitrogen to 2 parts
of available phosphoric acid and to 1 part of
potash. Consequently, this fertilizer has a 1-2-1
ratio; other grades having this ratio include
6-12-6, 10-20-10 and 12-24-12.

The grades of mixed farm fertilizers sold in
Texas have been limited in number for nearly 30
years. Limitation and standardization of grades
reduce the cost of manufacturing and handling,
thereby permitting the fertilizer to be sold to the

grades of fertilizer, enable him to decide t,
readily on the proper grade to be used and (j
the agricultural specialist to make definite
ommendations. The ratios and minimum z ,
of mixed farm fertilizers to be approved in
during a given year are decided by the
Fertilizer Committee after a public heari
which manufacturers and others interested
present recommendations. This public -:?_
is held in cooperation with fertilizer l;
officials, agricultural specialists and man,
turers of Texas, Louisiana, Arkansas, Okla
and New Mexico. The list of approved g '
is published in the annual fertilizer bulletin
may also be obtained upon request to the 
Chemist. ‘

Following the annual public hearing;
grades held at Galveston July 23, 1954, the I
Fertilizer Committee approved the follo,

periods, rather than those based on the Texas
fiscal year, are used because they are in accord
with the periods almost universally used by
fertilizer manufacturers, by the U. S. Department
of Agriculture and by many states, and are those
recommended by the Committee on Fertilizer
Grades and Ratios of the American Society of
Agronomy to provide a uniform basis for estimat-
ing the needs of the fertilizer industry in the
United States. These data were compiled from
current reports of sales of fertilizers required by
law to be sent to the State Chemist by fertilizer
guarantors within 3 days after sale.

Sales of mixed goods this year were only
slightly lower than those of a year ago, the
decrease amounting to less than 1 percent. This
decrease is more than accounted for by the
continued large decreases in sales of 0-12-12,
0-14-7 and 4-12-4. Highly significant increases
occurred in sales of the 1-1-0 and 2-2-1 ratios and
in grades of other ratios of high analysis. Sales
of materials were about 3 percent lower than
they were in 1952-1953. This decrease is more
than accounted for by the large decreases in sales
of phosphatic materials. Highly significant
increases occurred in sales of all the principal
nitrogen materials. Sales of normal superphos-
phate accounted for only about 27 percent of the
tonnage of materials sold this year, as compared
with about 76 percent of the materials sold 5
years ago. The actual tonnage of normal super-
phosphate sold this year was considerably less
than one-half as great as it was 5 years ago.

The tonnages of the primary fertilizer com-
ponents sold during the year, calculated from the
current reports of guarantors and the guaranteed
analyses, are shown in Table 3. Sales in the fall
accounted for 23 percent of the nitrogen, 40
percent of the available phosphoric acid and 25
percent of the potash used during the entire year.
Stated in another way, sales of nitrogen and of
potash were three times as great in the spring
as they were in the fall, while sales of available
phosphoric acid were fairly evenly distributed
between the two periods. Mixed goods supplied
26 percent of the nitrogen, 51 percent of the
available phosphoric acid and 96 percent of the

evident in the Texas fertilizer data for i
years. One trend is toward the use of fe '

The other trend is toward a narrowing t.

Whereas they were actually carried in
about 560,000 tons. By increasing the

farmers have saved the expense of manu-

a quarter of a million tons of fertilizer.

the year ending June 30, 1949, the N:P205 ratio
was 123.25, while during 1953-54, it was 1:1.00.
Consumption of nitrogen has continued a rapid
upward trend, while consumption of available
phosphoric acid has decreased significantly for
each of the last 3 years. Consumption of potash
has nearly doubled in 10 years, but is still
relatively low.

VALUATION PER TON

if the valuation found is 10 percent or more
below the valuation guaranteed, the fertilizer
shall be considered as being adulterated. A
calculation of the valuation guaranteed and of
the valuation found by analysis must, therefore,
be made. The valuation also sums up the valua-
tion of the three primary components (nitrogen,
available phosphoric acid and soluble potash)
shown in the guarantee or found in the analysis,
into a single figure which is convenient for
comparative purposes.  

The calculation of the total valuation requires
a specific valuation for each of the three consti-
tuents. The following prices per pound and per
unit (1 percent of a ton, or 20 pounds) were used
for this calculation in 1953-54:

Prices per Prices per
pound unit
Nitrogen $ .15 $3.00
Available phosphoric acid ................ .- .06 1.20
Total phosphoric acid in tankage
and bone meal .035 .70

The valuation is calculated by multi
the percentage of each constituent by the p_
tion per unit, and adding the products. Follo
is an example of the calculation of the valu
of a ton of a 5-10-5 fertilizer: a

lowest cost per unit of plant food to the farmer
are given first in the table.

In general, plant food in fertilizers of high

analysis costs less than that in lower analyses of
the same ratio. The difference may be illustrated
by a comparison of costs for the 1-2-1 ratio
(5-10-5 vs 12-24-12) and 1-1-1 ratio (8-8-8 vs
12-12-12). A large part of the higher grades
were pelleted, making a better product, which
allowed better distribution and utilization. This
is also true with materials.

REIIATION OF VALUATION GUARANTEED
TO VALUATION FOUND

A comparison of the average valuation
guaranteed by fertilizer manufacturers doing
business in Texas with the valuation found upon
analysis of official samples is shown in Table 6.
In the preparation of this table, all analyses made
were averaged, even though several were made of
each brand. Fertilizer materials, as well as mixed
fertilizers, were included in the calculation of
the averages given. In nearly all cases, the
valuation found exceeded the valuation guaran-
teed.

Rebates found due must be paid to the
purchasers of the deficient fertilizers if they can
be located. If all purchasers cannot be located
by the dealers’ records, the rebates must be paid
to some recognized local agricultural, religious or
charitable organization. The number of lots on
which such rebates were paid by each guarantor
is shown in Table 6. A total of 105 samples
were more than 4 percent below the guaranteed
valuation. Most of these were of high analysis
grades. Further work is needed on the technology
of manufacturing these grades. Rebates amount-
ing to $2,079.95 were made to the purchasers.

HOW TO OBTAIN FREE ANALYSIS

OF FERTILIZERS a 

Purchasers of commercial fertilizers forg
own use on their own land (but not for sale)f
obtain a free analysis of a sample, provided
take it in accordance with the requiremen
the Texas fertilizer law. This privilege of a.
analysis applies only to fertilizers sold unde,
fertilizer law and to samples properly tak
that they represent the goods sampled.
proper sampling of a fertilizer must be  
carefully, and the law requires that it be‘ j
in a certain way to insure a true sample.
who desire the free analysis of a sampl
commercial fertilizer should write to the ',
Chemist, College Station, Texas, and requ
