HUMUS IN THE SOIL.
This Valuable Substance Is Due to the
Presence Of Bacteria.

We find a vast difference in the fer
filthy of different soils, writes c. l..
Macarthur, assistant bacteriologiSt, Ida
no experiment station. For instance.
sand, although it may contain all the
elements necessary for plant food, Is
still found barren and without Ve%eta-
ton. Garden soils. however, may con-
tain less plant food than the sand and
still be considered very fertile. This
difference is usually due TO the sub
stance known rs humus Where the
humus is present the different ele-
ments are present in form that plants
can use This humus is the remains OF
previous plants and animals. When
plants die that part which is not used
for commercial purposes usually goes
back to the soil. In much the same
way great deal of the animal body
reaches the soil.
As soon as this material reaches the
soil il is attacked by millions Of bacte-
ria. which are known as the decompo-
sition bacteria. These bacteria soon
cause a great many changes in the ma
terial. each change tending TO break
down the complex into the more sim
pie compounds. \ part of this material
is set free in the form of gases and is
lost in the atmosphere, but the greatest
part remains in the soil as partly de-
composed mass and is known as hu-
mus.
Different classes of bacteria continue
their work on this material after ii has
reached the form of humus. decOmpos-
ing il still further and building plant
food and other substances from it.
Thus we see that humus is continually
changing. 1t is never the same in two
different fields, and 1t also differs from
year to year in the same field.
The addition of manure to n field
does a great deal toward the formation
Of humus. 1t not only adds decompos-
ing matter to the soil, but it also adds
large numbers of bacteria which form
humus out Of the material already in
the soil Thus we find that if it were
not for the work Of bacteria there
would not be any humus, as the various
plant and animal matter would not de-
cav.

CHOCOLATE AS A FOOD.
IL Should Be Eaten After and Never
Before Meals.

Chocolate is one of the most whole
some of foods. But it should be re-
served for eating after meals. Nothing
can be worse than chocolate eaten
just before a meal, for then 1t ruins
the appetite. Chocolate should consist
Of equal parts Of sugar and cocoa.
When ii contains, as most OF that sold
in the cheap candy stores does, more
sugar than cocoa it loses much Of its
real food value.
Koenig, the great German chemist,
who has done so much to enlighten the
world on the value of foods by publish
ing his analysis Of them, says that
chocolate contains 6.27 per cent of pro-
tein, 60 per cent of theobromine, 21.20
per cent Of. fat, 1876 per cent Of tar
taric acid 1910 per cent OF sugar, 4.07
per cent Of starch, 1.67 per cent of Gel.
lulose and $50 per cent of other car
bOhydrates. Therefore it is highly nu-
tritive.
Athletes, polar explorers and noun
tain climbers know this well. In the
Swiss Alps it is usual to carry chocO-
late in the pocket and to eat a little
Of 1t whenever the climbers pause for
a rest. But chocolate is fattening and
should therefore be eschewed by those
who have tendency to too great cor
pulency. 1t is an ideal addition to the
diet OF a vegetarian.
Chocolate and cocoa are almost as
stimulating as coffee and tea, but have
none Of the injurious effects upon the
nervous system which are for many
people the great drawbacks Of these
drinks
Chocolate is best when made over
night and allowed to stand.-New York

Swedish Bridal SuperstItIons.

In Sweden the bridegroom has a
great fear OF trolls and sprites, and as
an antidote against their power he
sews into his clothes various strong
smelling herbs. such as garlic and rose
mary. 1t is customary 10 I'LL the
brides pocket with bread, which she
gives to the poor she meets on the
way to the church. and so averts mis-
fortune with the aims she bestOws.
On their return from church the bride
and bridegroom visit their COW houses
and farms that the cattle may thrive
and multiply.

A Knight In ropcoats,

The late Sir Tatton Sykes. says the
Manchester Guardian, had a way Of
his own Of taking his walks comfort
ably. A visitor in the neighborhood Of
Sledmere would see the baronet set out
for his morning round wearing two or
three overcoats. When he felt warm
enough he would take off first one and
then another and lay it on the nearest
hedgerow. The person who found an
overcoat and returned it to the house
always received the reward Of a shll-
ling, and no doubt the Sledmere boys
were willing searchers.
