The tendency of phosphates TO re-

III contact with dry earth makes il
necessary to use them only in places
and Mt times when plenty of rains will
supply the moisture to keep the plant
food IN condition for use. Hence
phosphate is much more effective used
on iall-grown grain, or on the crops
planted very early in spring. If n
long spell of dry weather follows it's
application the phosphate will revert
so that water alone will not again dis
solve IT. But in soils which contain
any organic matter the water they con
tam must have an excess of carbonic
acid gas, which Is derived from the
decay OF plants. 1t is this carbonic
acid gas in spring waters that makes
them bubble up as they come out of
the earth and adds greatly to their
pnlatableness. In theirpassage through
the soil these waters have come i'm con
tact with much carbonic acid gas, md

blue grass in Queensland. 1t appears
on the nodes of the stems in masses as
large as marbles. 1t is sweet, and
nearly three parts of it consists of
mannite, which, though sweet, is not

which has the power to decompose
cane sugar without evolving carbonic

not only indigenous in Australia, but
it is found also in tropical Asia and
