Plain Facts AbOut Fertilizers.
WEST BLOOMFIELD, New YORK,
February, 1884.

To the Agricultural Editor of the Weekly
Globe Your articles in The Globe are
attracting much attention. Allow me to
ask whether you have personally tested
the Charleston phosphates in their natu.
raj state The theory among the expert
mental stations is that they will not
readily dissolve. What l want is the
fact. RIM
have frequently tested and compared
the Charleston phosphate in its natural
state, but finely ground, also when COM
bined with sulphuric acid, then called SOL
uble but in that condition it cannot be
taken by plants, for, if it was, it would
act corrosively on their tender tissues.
In the soil it reverts to its original
condition, except it is now in the finest
possible state of division. Bones cannot
be ground fine without great expense
the most economical way of reducing
them, but there is no difficulty in grind
ing the mineral phosphates to an impalpa-
BILE powder by machinery, without the aid
of sulphuric acid, saving the cost of that
material and obtaining double the guam
tity of phosphoric acid in its natural state,
but finely ground, at one-half the cost,
and of equal cropproducing capacity with
that treated with sulphuric acid. This
is so easily demonstrated, and at such
small cost by applying some of each to
the soil and noting the resulting crops on
equal portions of land, that it would have
been more generally tried by farmers if
they had not had it instilled into them
by the manufacturers of fertilizers and
the experiment stations that in phosphate
of lime treated with sulphuric acid, the
phosphoric acid was worth twelve and
one.half cents pound, while the same
phosphoric acid in phosphate of lime
finely ground, was worth but three cents
pound, and in that form was not availa-

Three PeCuIiarities

The superior qualities of Hoods Sarsapa-
rlla are secured by three peculiarltes viz.
First Tho combination of remedial agents
used.
Second. The proportion in which they
are mixed
Third - The process by which the active
medicinal properties are secured
These are peculiar to Hoods Sarsaparilla
and are unlike any other. The result of these
peculiarities is medicine of unusual strength
which effects cures hitherto unknown. A
trial, or even glance at the article, inspires
confidence, because it bears unquestionablc
indication of thorough understanding on the
part of those who originated it.

"BLAcK GNATs."--If anybody wonders
what those " black gnats" were, that are
said to kill plum trees in Mr.. Keeps re-
port on Mooers Arctic Plum March 19),
we will explain that black gnat is the
proof-reader's correction of our ignorance
in writing d" black knot" Plum.growers

peculiarly of Hoods Sarsaparilla, which
is obvious to all, is one hundred doses one
dollar, - an manswerabe argument as to
strength and economy. If you are sick, try
this excellent medicine; it has given health
and happiness to many, and you may reason
ably expect 1t will to you. The cures effected
by Hoods Sarsaparila speak volumes in its
praise, and are constantly adding to its in
flucnce. No better evidence of its worth is
needed, than its enormous sale. An article
without merit cannot attain the popular de-
mand Of this medicine.

rilla, and I know it to be an article of merit"

CLEAN the hen-house thoroughly, and
smoke it several times with bitterweed,
or, as some call it, yellow dog-fennel.
This is said to be effectual.

In making up the latter formula
we should first mix the bone and ashes,
pack the mixture in barrels, and wet
it thoroughly. Lst it stand ten or
twelve days, then pour out on the barn
floor and mix perfectly with the cotton seed
meal. 1t would then be ready to apply
to any crop, the same as an ordinary fer.
tilizer. We think this is perhaps the best
and easiest to make of any of the formulas
we have given, and it would be certain to
give good results on any crop to which it
might be applied, either alone, or in con.
nection with a partial dressing of stable
manure.

"My little girl was afflicted with scrofula.
SO virulent was the disease that her neck had
been lanced ten times. At the time she began
to take Hoods Sarsaparlla, there was very
large bunch on her face This we ex-
pected to open with the lancet; but to our
surprise the bunch began to shrink, and now
it has entirely disappeared. Baby is in good
flesh; sores all gone; her appetite is good,
and she seems as well as any child"

While Dispensing the Latter.
Yesterday afternoon two religious de-
ciples and curb-stone pulpiteers as well,
opened their batteries of song and ser
mon on the outworks of Satan, which
they presumed were strongest and best
fortified at Jonas garden. They failed
TO obtain an audience that in its Sunday
mood could appreciate their zeal or fol-
low their finger pointing heavenward
higher than beer glass. They were
good naturally bedgered several times,
but were not in the least Disconnected.
Two glasses of beer were sent out to
them to quenoh their eloquence, which
were declined with thanks. Then two
glasses of diluted sod corn, flanked by q
brace OF water cups, were offered them.
These we're likewise declined. Then u
wag in the outside Of the saloon filed
high two glasses of water and poured
therein spoonful of white rye, and
having done so tempted the thirst Of
these wondering evangelists Herewith.
These were swallowed instanter amid
the roar of the multitude who had been
made cognizant of the trick. Evidently
they were deceived by appearances,
though soothed and sustained to such n
degree that the services seemed, after
they had imbibed, to be almost inter
minable. They lasted till near sun

Parson Julian, OF the San Marcos Free
Press, put on his pious spectaoles, and
gives the following views Of a stranger,
about the morals OF San Antonio:
"Drink is the curse OF the city and
gambling is as bad or worse. As long as
the gambling commands the city, 80
will drunkenness, crime, dishonesty and
debauchery be rampant here.
As long as there are beautifully fur
nished houses of ill-fame-I believe they
call them bagnios here-inhabited by
high toned lustre of the demi-monde,
who are pretty, fascinating, fashionable
in dress, and accomplished, men will not
enter the bonds of matrimony, or II they
do marry, and do not really love the
woman they marry, will be tempted to
stray from the paths Of virtue probably
under the influence OF alcohol, or the
bad influence of unprincipled so-called
friends-friends ms long us their dollars
last-but no longer.
There are great many, doubt not,
Woodworking, honest men and women In
the city; there are churches and chapels
with their estimable pastors and priests;
there are excellent societies for the dis
tribution of charity and for fostering
other good works, but what is wanted in
this city is high moral tone, one to put
down with a strong hand lawlessness,
drunkenness, gambling and debauchery.'

Two gentlemen, who have been well
known in our city for long time, are
they intend to live. Mr.. w. Kalteyer
left last night for Cotulla to open up 4
business for himself, and Mr.. George
Hartford, popular and very estimable
gentleman, has sold. out his in
terest in the Menger hotel bar to a
Laredo man and will soon go northward
to make his home. The LIGHT wishes

three additions, all adjoining,

4 husband Miss Knapp rode home from

cort are above suspicion.
