Farm That Won't Wear Out

NOTE: THIS IS a DOWNLOADABLE E-BOOK. the greatest economic loss that America has ever sustained has been the loss of energy and profit in farming with an inadequate supply of phosphorus. Phosphorus is a Greek word which signifies "light-bringer" but it is a light which few Americans have yet seen, else we should not permit the annual exportation of more than a million tons of our best phosphate rock, for which we receive at the mines the paltry sum of five million dollars, carrying away from the United States an amount of the one element of plant food we shall always need to buy.Hopkins, Cyril G. is the author of 'Farm That Won't Wear Out', published 2004 under ISBN 9781419261978 and ISBN 1419261975.
