A MEDlco-LeeAL QUESTION.
A Point which would Seem of Prime In

A Point which Would Seem of Prime Inn
portance in Criminal Jurisprudence.
In a recent trial in Chicago it was desired
to establish the probable period during which
certain human bones offered in evidence had
been buried Authorities were searched, and
medical, chemical and other experts appealed
to with the result of determining an absolute
dearth of knowledge upon point which
would seem of prime Importance in criminal
jurisprudence. Upon the discovery of a dead
body or of human remains under circum-
stances pointing to violence, one of the most
important factors in the problem of the dis
covery of the murderer must obviously be
the probable date of DEATH But when this is
beyond the period necessary for the destruc-
ton of the soft parts of the body-usually a
few months at most-the text books of law
and medicine and the experience and obServa-
tions of the anatomical expert are alike silent
and fruitless.
A recent communication to the French
Academy of Medicine indicates a method of
determination of this fact of date which the
medico-legal student will need to master if
he would acquit himself creditably in the
future. This consists in studying the gen
erations of the minute organisms tacarina)
which destroy the body after death. NJ.
Brouardel presented to tho academy the
body of a young girl which he was able to
prove had lain in a cellar for year, by
tracing the order of succession and life dura-
ton of different species of these microphytes.
One species consumes the fatty acids of the
body; another absorbs certain fluids; still
others feed only upon the skin, or the nus-
c,ilar structure, or tive nerve tissue, etc. and
each species dies when its work is ended, its
period of life varying from six to eight weeks,
according to the temperature and other con-
ditions BY this means III. Meguin, one Of
NJ Brouardels collaborators, was able to ac-
curately establish the date of burial in case
Of murder, in which the remains of the vic
tim were discovered in garden
This work has not, as yet, been taken up in
this country, nor is it stated to what remote
ness Of burial it viii apply. But it is not
likely that the French viii be allowed 70

A manure is efficacious only when its
constituents are brought into contact with
the roots of the crop. To obtain this con-
tact 20 the fullest extent, the manure
must be finely and thoroughly distributed
throughout the depth of soil mainly occu-
led by the roots. Soluble manures, as
ammonium salts, potassium salts, nitrate
and chloride of sodium and superphos-
phate, have the advantage that they dis
tribute themselves within the soil after
the first heavy shower. When manure Is
especially required by the plants in its
earliest stages, as superphosphate for tur-
nips, 1t may be drilled with the seed; but
as rule superphosphates should be
sowr broadcast and plowed or narrowed
in.
Top dressing-that is sowing manure
ON the surface of land already under crop
-as for instance pasture, ought gener-
ally TO be confined to manureS that are
soluble or of which the principal ele-
ments easily become soluble in the soil.
Manures of little solubility or those of
which the soil has great retentive power
may be applied 20 the land some time be-
fore the growing period of the crop.
Dlhusive manures, on the other hand,
should be applied only when the crop is
ready to make use of them, else serious

manures, oil cake and bones. and, to some
extent, superphosphate and potassium
salts, belong to the former class, while
aitrates and ammonium salts belong to
;he latter class.
On soils of open texture and little reten-
i've power preference must often be gwen

diminish the loss occasioned by heaVy
rain. Bulky organic manures are IN sucn
cases very suitable.
On worn out soils profitable yield can
be gained only where a complete fertilizer
is given Animal manures are complete
fertilizers in the sense Of containing all
the elements of plant food. A complete
fertilizer among commercial or artificial
fertilizers is one that possesses more or
less of nitogen, phosphoric acid and

was greatly edited by the sermon, and
came to me and told me that she now
