Fertilizer Profits Low
A ten-year average profit of the
fertilizer industry as reported by:
the Bureau of Internal Revenue
shows a return of only one and five
one-hundredth cents on a dollar of
sales while 22,000 farmers in a recent
survey reported a return of
$3.60 in increased yields for each
dollar spent on fertilizer.
In the last ten years for which
figures are available 1929-1938?
total fertilizer profits amounted to
one and five-hundredths cents for
each dollar of sales, or 94 cents on
each ton of $26 fertilizer sold.
Figures just released by the
Commissioner of Internal Revenue
on corporation income tax returns
by industries for 1938 shows returns
for 374 fertilizer manufac;?turers.
Of this number 161 or 49 _
per cent reported deficits. The
i average return for 1938 was 3.6
per cent. The S.E.C. reports returns
of 16 large chemical companies
not engaged in fertilizer

Home In Country
Burned Saturday
Fire of unknown origin Saturday
about noon, destroyed a seven-room
residence on the old Liberty Hill
road about ten miles northwest of
Camden.
The house was owned by the late
S. C. Rose, of the Cantey Hill section
but recently became the property of
Mrs. Klizabeth Carrison Walte. formerly
of Camden, but now of Columbia.
It was occupied by Ben Alexander,
colored, who farms the property,
and his children discovered the
blaze on the roof and almost succeeded
In extinguishing the flames by
use of pump water. Ben succeeded
In saving a portion of his furniture.
He tells The Chronicle that this
Is the fourth residence on the same
spot that has been reduced to ashes
within the past thirty years. Along
with the store, a small commissary
building used in former days also
11went up in flames.
