by the throe ladies abore mentioned and
by Mr. Pan! Dickey. Both carriages
were overturned by the crash, In the

The people in ths forward vehicle
did not fare so welt When it wasorer-

the oarriage for about twenty yards.
The negro driver held pluekily to the

from serious injury. Her arm was

The average quality of “Caliche"
contains from thirty to forty per cent,
of sodium nitrate, and the poorest
quality worked ranges from seventeen
to thirty per cent, sodium nitrate. The

The process of extracting and sepa

Sulphate of Ammonia.
One other important inorganic
source of nitrogen la the salt known as
sulphate of amonia. tl is produced
chiefly as a by-product in the manu
facture of illuminating gas from coal;
the gas coals all contain a small per
centage of nitrogen; when subjected
to a dry distillation in retorts, the ni
trogen is driven off in the form of am
monia gas. and is finally absorbed in
sulphuric acid, from which it Is crystal
lized as sulphate of ammonia. This
proauct usually contains about twenty
and one-half per cent, of nitrogen,
when purified, but if sold unpurified,
as bit>wn sulphate at ammonia, it may
not contain more than elgtiteen per
cent, of nitrogen. Sulphate of am
monia is freely soluble in water, and
has this advantage over nitrate of so
da, that it does not leach out of the
soil so readily as nitrate of soda does,
and may therefore be applied witn
other fertilizers in the fall to fall
crops without fear of serious loss
through leaching daring the fail and
winter. I have not mentioned all ot
the various kinds of nitrogenous fer
tilizer materials, but have sketched
briefly the principal ones,' from which
nearly all the commercial fertilizers
sold in the State of'Georgia are made.

there is reason to suppose that it is some
tiuiQ daring the first week or ten days

period at which the Japanese represen-

A GOOD SUGGESTION.
NITRATE OP SODA.
Cottonseed-meal, blood, tankage,
etc., which 1 have deecrtbed to you in
the last letter, are known aa "organic"
sources ol ammonia, or rather ot ni
trogen. Habit Is so strong, you tee,
It Is hard to get rid or the use' ot that
word ammonia. Nitrogen is much
the better term tor our use. Besides
the organic sourcee of nitrogen we
also have what are known aa the “In
organic" sources. I'have explained
in a previous letter fully the meaning
of these two terms, but lest you may
have forgotten, I will atop a moment
to say that an organic substance
may be either vegetable or animal,
thus a leaf, a seed, a piece of meat or
of skin are organic etabetances. An
Inorganic substance Is the opposite of
these, and Is mineral in Itt nature. A
piece of rock or of Iron Is Inorganic.
The chief inorganic sonree of nitro
gen, then, is nitrate of,soda, also com-
nronly called “Chill Saltpetre;" salt
petre because it had many of the prop
erties ot real saltpetre, which is ni
trate ot jotiah, ,nd Chill because it la
imported from Chill in. Booth America.
