According to the annual report) of Messrs. T. Aikman and Co. the fertiliser trade, during 1895, had been more depressed than ever, notably towards the end of the year. During the spring season the quantity ot nitrate of soda showod a slight increase, owing to tho fact that the price was about) 8s per cwt, with an abundant supply, as contrasted with lid per cwt and a short supply for the spring of 1894. When the report was published, the value of nitrate of soda was down to 7s 6d, which is said to bo under the cost of production. The total exports from all tlio nitrate ports during the past year were estimated at about 1,210,000 tons against 1,075,000 tons for 1894. in sympathy with nitrate, sulphate of ammonia had roceded from lis to 8s Cd per cwt. Tho value of potash salts continues to be regulated by the combination of German producers. The year's imports of Peruvian guano readied about 31,000 tons into the United Kingdom and 51,000 tone into Continental ports, which have passed into dealers' hands. The demand has been small in consequence of the low pricesof other ammoniacal and phosphatic manures. The imports of phosphatic guanoes had been almost suspended, owing to tho low prices of mineral phosphate and to tho existence of stocks left ovor from former imports. The total imports of bone material into the United Kingdom for the eleven months ending November last aggregated about 65,000 against 75,000 tons for last year, and quotations showed a decline of Irom 5s to 7« Gd per ton. According to the Board of Trade returns, the imports of phosphate of lime for the eleven months ending November reached 333,000 tons, against 355,000 tons last yoar during the same period; the average value per ton of these imports was returned as about £1 12s against £1 17s 61 in 1894. Owing to supply, competition, and the depressed state of tho fertiliser trade, the fall in value had been from 7Jd to 8J(I per unit at dote last year, to o.Jd to GJd per unit to-day. A slightly more hopeful feeling was boing manifested, many sources of supply being unable to continue working at present prices. Tho average fall in value per ton of oil seed and oil seed cakes, as compared with last year, was from las to 30s per ton, or 10 to 20 per cent.
