ply of the phoSphates their seeds, accordingly, abound
in these very phOsphates, and In the same degree are
they valuable as the food of misunderstanding to them
these same phosphates, which are essential to their
well-being, and without which their bony structure could
neither be built up nor sustained. On the other hand,
these bony structures after the death of the animals, are
now extensively and most eficaciously made TO supply
this very essential food TO the plants, which are IN turn
to become the food of another generation of animals
Bones, be it observed, then are valuable for the phos-
pilates they contain, and if we can supply our land with
these same phosphates from other sources at a chca-
per rate, SO much the better. Such sources are made
subservient to the purposes of the Agriculturists by the
enterprise of English capitalists and we have now IN
use the super phosphate of lime, manufactured by a
Mr.. Laves of London, which promises great advanta-
gees from its concentration, and the additional quantity
of phosphoric acid combined with the lime, in addition
to that which is naturally combined with it in the bones
upon which he operates. I think I shall probably have
occasion to allude further TO this by and by, when speak

us, therefore, to give o aeach plant that which 1t requl-
