WE.LS:H & SON PHONE 109 NENSALL SIZING FROM THE Aluminum was named by a man who never saw it. In 1807 the great scientist Sir Humphrey Davy decided that alumina had a metallic base, but failed to find a way to extract the metal. But he went ahead anyway and christened the unseen metal "aluminum". Later' he changed his mind and re -named it alu- minium. Both versions are still used. Wonder if the English scientist ever dreamed of the day when, in far -oil Canada, millions of hydro -electric horsepowerwould unlock the riches of alumina to produce more than 500,000 tons of aluminum a year?

According to a University of Wis- consin bulletin it terms phosphate crystals that .don't wash away very easily. Only a small amount of phos- phate fertilizer finds its way into the Crop during a season, the re- searchers point out. Most of it reacts with the soil itself, form- ing insoluble crystals. But a farm- er searching for these crystals wouldn't be able to find them. They are so small that it takes the high-powered electron mie- roscope to ,see thein. Magnified 70,000 times, a typ- ical crystal appears to be about 2t inches long and one inch wide. A fly's wing magnified the sante amount would cover four foot- ball fields. Can't Get Phosphate This crystal formation explains why rain doesn't leach phosphates from the soil, while other min- erals like potassium and nitrogen are rapidly lost. And the crystals also make it more difficult for plants to get the phosphate. It's like money in a safe after you lose the combination. You can't be robbed, but you do not enjoy the use of the money. The researchers hastened to add that the use of phosphate fertil- izer is very profitable .for farm- ers even though much of the phosphate is tied up in these crystals. The small percentage used by plants generally brings a higher crop yield that gives a good return on the fertilizer in- vestment. The phosphate in cryst- als remains slowly available to crops and thus gives some ad- ditional returns. Now that the fate of the un- used phosphate is known, scien- tists may find it easier.. to in- crease phosphorus fertilizer a- vailability through liming and other .soil management practices.
