Agricultural Department.
The Effect Of the Sulphuric
Acid Upon the Commercial
Acid Phosphate.
Southern Cultivator.

There are some differences in
opinions among the farmers of
this section as TO which part of
acid phosphate contains plant
food. Some contend that the sui
phuric acid of acid phosphate is
the only part that does any good
as a plant-food-that the only
way it does good is where there
is plenty Of humus in the soil for
it "to eat up," and that the phos
phate is of no good only "to hold
the acid"
There are others among whom
are myself, who believe that the
phosphate is the important part /;
we admit that phosphate alone is
not a complete fertilizer, but
that it must be mixed with other
chemical elements to formulate a
complete fertilizer; we believe
the phosphate rock or ground
bone must be treated with acid
to render it in an available form
so as to get the most good from
1t, but we think there is a fertili.
zing value in phosphate rock or
ground bone, even if it has not
been treated with sulphuric acid
but we do not think there is any
fertilizing value in sulphuric acid
alone. AS to the humus in the
soil which the acid is supposed to
"eat up," Of course the more hu.
mus in the soil the more good any
fertilizer will do.
Now, Mr.. Editor, please explain
this in the columns of your mos'
excellent paper, the Southern
Cultivator, as | think there may
be farmers in other parts of the
country would like to understand
this question better.

Comment by the Editor

comment Oy the Editor:
You are correct in stating that
the fertilizing value in "acid phos
phate" is in the 'phosphate rock
and not in the sulphuric acid
The sole virtue in the sulphuric
acid lies in its power to dissolve
the phosphate and render it solu-
BILE. There are many who contend
that our "acid phosphate' con
tains enough free sulphuric acid
in it to be partially injurious to
the land and to the crop. We do
not think this is true, or we
would not receive such uniformly
good results from it's use. Sui.
phuric acid far from being a fer
tilizer is such a powerful acid
that it will eat up almost everv.
thing it touches and would kill
every seed or plant with which
they come in contact. 1t is this
remnant of acid left that causes
"acid phosphate" and our guanos
TO kill the seeds, If put In actual
contact, and hence we want our
fertilizers well mixed with the
soil before putting in our seed.

a thing of no use. But they will
now have to revise their opinion.
A vermiform appendix that
catches and holds diamond
worth 5000 is not without its
utility.
But to begin the story at its
beginning: A young shoplifter
person entered the store of an
Omaha jeweler the other day and
asked to look at some diamonns.
She bore about her an air of
affluence and many good clothes
so that the clerk did not scruple
to set forth whole tray full Of
the spark lers, and forebore to
watch he1 too narrowly. The
shoplifter young person slipped
one of the precious stones into
her mouth, and made her way
out of the shop. Almost Immedi
ately after her departure the
stone was missed, detective was
sent after her, and caught up
with her. She still had the stone
in her mouth. The rude detec.
tive addressed her so harshly that
she swallowed the diamond. After
having done 80 she became pauic
stricken--and confessed.
She was hailed to the police
courts, and there her inner con
seriousness was searched by means
of an X.ray machine. The $500
diamond was located in the YER.

that the police judge delivered
himself with the wisdom of Solo
mon. Or, rather, with the wis
dom Of Portia.
THAT diamond is yours" said
the police judge to the jeweler,
"and you have right to dig for
it. 1t is your diamond-take it.
But
"But if you resort to an opera

Exactly the same dilemma tina t

"Be careful and don't shed any

our esteemed contemporary, the

to suspect that Mr.. Strong is the

Erath County, Texas, is not of

We doubt if it is as good a hen

more to the point, all the coun.
