THE ELEMENTS OF FERTILITY.

Nothing relating to agriculture is
more instructive than the slow ap-
proach of the human mind to a clear
understanding of its fundamental
truths. So early as 1869 a German
alchemist by the name of Brand dis
covered phosphorus in human urine;
but its connection with the brain,
nerves, muscles and bones of man, and
of all inferior animals, Was not found
out for more than a century after that
time. After phosphOric acid was
known to be a constituent of all bones,
no traced it to the grass eaten by
the OK, whose bones are conspicuous,
or traced human bones to the bone
material in bread, meat, fruit and
vegetables eaten by man, and
this bone-earth back to the soil.
Mistaken ideas in infant science, and
equally mistaken notions in early ira
ditions, and embryo religion, retard all
substantial progress in useful knowl-
edge for indefinite generations.
Learned alchemists long believed in
the transmutation of metals and min
erals, and thought that oil of vitriol
and muriatic acid changed into phos-
phoric acid. In l743, Marg yrof proved
tie error Of this opinion; and in l7S0
DR.. Calm demonstrated that this won
derfUl bone acid existed as a perma-
nent substance in the mineral king
dom. Soon after Klaproth and Vau-
quelin ascertained that the mineral
called apctite is phosphate of lime.
Thus the phosphoric light, and
warmth and power of the human brain,
and the remarkable strength of human
and other bodies, are clearly seen In
phosphorus as it exists in the three
great kingdoms of nature-the animal,
vegetable and mineral. Important as
phosphoric acid is In building up every
part Of our bodies, and those of all our
domestic animals, yet in 100 pounds of
dry corn meal (the best type Of our
common food, there is considerably
less than three-fourths of a pound of
this acid. The quantity of ash or ashes
left on burning corn is variable, owing
partly to difference in soil and partly
to unlike varieties of the plant. Thea ASH
is from one to II and a half per cent.
OF this about As per cent. is phosphoric
acid, We need not tell the reader that

There is much dissatisfaction exist
ing in the Second District In regard to
the apportionment of public offices, ana
the lions share Of the appointments
and disbursements of the government
which is secured by Knoxville in diste-
gard of other portions of the district.
This feeling of dissatisfaction exists
without respect to party, and is going
to affect the result of the November
election more than politicians are now
aware.
1t is claimed by those who live IN
other portions of this Congressional
district, that Knoxville has received
one grand gift of half a million OF dol
lars, in the shape OF a eustom-house.
and is receiving a yearly income OF
$4,000 in the shape of salaries to gov
eminent officials, and yet nothing has
beendone in Congress or out to advance
the material interests of h edistrict, and
promote the welfare of the people out
side of Knoxville. How much truth
there is in this statement we are not
prepared to decide, but that this mat
ter is going to receive much considera-
ton in future political contests is plain
to be seen. ID. N. SNYDER.

SPARE THE BIRDS.

The CIarksUiUe Chronicle has these
sensible remarks on a ~subjectfar great
er in interest to the public than is gen.
orally supposed:
"We wish the Changers could be in
duced to investigate the subject of the
value of birds, as protectors Of vegeta-
ton. Some naturalist has asserted
that, but for these vOracious denizens
of the air, even forests would be de-
stroyed. If so-and we do not doubt
it-their value, as p~reservers of or
chards and gardens and field crops, is
inestimable. Yet farmers, who spend
not a thought upon the subject, not
only do not try to protect the birds,
but join in the crusade for their de-
struction. There Is a law to protect
them, but unless it is sustained by an
enlightened public opinion, it is and
will continue to be a dead letter. A
little intelligent observation Of the
habits of birds and the number Of
worms and insects thesmallest of them
will destroy In a given time, Will salts
fly any farmer hat he has no better
friends and allies than the little
warblers who make his home cheerful
and ask nothing in return, but their
protection whilst they aid him in pro-
tecting his fruits and vegetables against
the ravages of destructive insects. The
wanton cruelty with which men and
boys pursue and kill every species of
birds, is a monstrous wrong against
which law and public opinion should
combine until that wrong ceases to
exist. The Changers can put a stop TO
this iniquity, because they own the
fields and the woods, from which the
law authorizes them to exclude the
murderous sportsman"

TO WHAT BASE usES.

Dust we are, but unto dust altogether
it appears that we do not alwaysreturn.
None of us have, perhaps thought of
ttansmigrating specifically into al maple
tree-that fruitful source Of all our
woesI But it appears that Roger VII
liams, Founder Of Providence Planta-
tons, is himself now aProvidenc plant.
The fact lately mentioned that the skull
of James OTIS, the Revolutionary orator,
was found inclosed by therooty fiber of
a tree, has revived the report made to
the Rhode Island Historical Society in
1860 when the grave of Roger was opened
and not a fragmentof his remains could
be found. The root Of an adjacent apple
tree has been pushed downward in a
sloping direction and nearly a straight
course toward the precise spot that had
been 6ccdpied By the skull of Roger
Williams. Thence it followed the difee=
ton of the backbone to the hips, and
thence divided into two branches, each
one following a leg bone to the heel,
where they both turned upward to the
extremity of the toes of the skeleton.
One of the roots formed a slight crook
at the part occupied blythe knee joints,
thus producing an increased resem-
blance to the outlines of the skeleton;
but no. a fragment of Rogers remains
remained. The apple tree hadabsorbed
everything. Little dreamed those who
for generations plucked and ate the
fruit Of that tree they were devouring
the mortal remains of the founder Of
Providence" So PHILOSOPHERS a writer
uponthis interesting subject. Another
goes still farther, and asks whether, "as
his fatherhad planted the tree and eaten
most of the fruit, he might not be con-
sidered as Of the family offspring Of
the old phi1anthropist." Perhaps so;
but why doesn't he inform us whether
his father was a Baptist and a friend of
religious liberty, and a plucky and per-
sistent defender of his opinions? We
have heare of a family tree before, but
neyerof one exactly like that which is
here quantity enough suggested.-Nec

zE4STESING THE RIPBNING OF


GerRIany supports yer thirty agri-
cultural experimental stations, at one
of which Mr.. Stall removed the earth
about the roots of an early pear tree
eight weeks before the normal period
of ripening, for a space of Is to Is
feet in diameter, and to such an extent
as to leave a depth of earth over the
roots of about 2 to p inches, which
could be thoroughly warmed by the
sun. He was surprised not only by
the ripening Of the fruit by the middle
of July, but also by its superior juci-
ness and flavor. In an another expert
ment the removal of the earth on the
north side of the tree alone caused the
fruit on that side to ripen several days
earlier than that on the south side
Frequent watering was necessary in
the above experiments. The summer
temperature of Germany is not so high
as ours, MOI mp to the cotton-growing
point. Our bottom heat by ~fermenting
n or steam, and glass to hasten
vegetation and maturity, are efforts Of
the same general character. Early
pears, peaches, apples and grapes have
a high market value.
