The elements necessary to the thrif
ty growth of crops havi‘)bocn taken off in
crops previously proouceil, and sold
from the farm. What are these ele
ments ? They are substances which
are found to exist iu tho ashea
of the crop, and the volatile elements
of the plants dispersed by combustion.
Os tho mineral elements of this ash
some are still existing in the soil in
sufficient abundance, butothors, which
usually are in small amounts in oven
tho best soils, have more com
pletely disappeared. The* must pu
replaced, and when this is done, tho
fertility of tho soil is restored. No
other thing no matter how necessary
for the plant, will servo tho purpose.
With evoiy needed element present
save one, the soil is still unfertile ; and
these substances must not only be
present, but they must be in a solublo
condition, so that tihey may bo taken
up by the roots of the plants. This
condition may bo promoted, as regards
tho elements alroady in the 6oil, by
cultivation, and especially by fallowing.
Fallowing and rotation of crops are
well known methods of promoting fer
tility. The addition of some indirect
fertilizers, such as plaster and lime,
also help in decomposing tho soil and
causing it to surrender up its fertili
zing ingredients to tho plauts.
But with all this, under ordinary
. culture, it is also necessary to add di
rect fertilizers in the form of such
substances as are wanting. Os these,
among mi nerals, usually only potash
and phosphoric acid are deficient in
ordinary soils. These must bo provi
ded from external sources. For pot
ash we must resort to wood iJshos,
which should never bo sold by the far
mer, except at a price above its actual
value which is never loss than fifty
cents a bushel. For phosphoric acid
we must look to tho mineral phos
phates, or to bones. These should be
economized and utilized to tho last
bone. But bones and mineral phos
phates in their natural condition fire
nearly insoluble, and aro much im
proved as fertilizers by being treated
by sulphuric acid, which rcndi rs the
phosphate of limein them solubiein wa
ter. Phosphate thus prepared is known
as superphosphate.
Barometers tor I'arisiers.
For more than ten years past, a3 wo
have met with tillers of the soil who
owned a barometer and consulted it
many tirm s a day, wo have put this
question to them : do you not find the
barometer of much practical value in
aiding you to escape storms and to
avail yourself of fair weather, in con
ducting tho operations of tho field!
To our surprise, wo have novor met
with an intell’gont tiller of the soil
who has studied his baio ueter, but
did acknowledge that be depended
more upon observations of tho clouds
and the wind than on the barometer.
Would jour barometer boos any
practical aid if j’ou could not see the
sky, clouds, and know which way the
wind blows ? They all answered ‘no.’
William Strong, of Kalamazoo,
Mich., writes as follows : lie owns a
barometer, and j ays considerable at
tention to it, is frequently led astray
by its antics. To illustrate : Ho lias
several acres of bay that is par ly
cured ; tho weathor duos not look ex
actly right, ho consults his barometer,
the mercury is moving-in such a way as
to indicate speedy rain. That hay is
raked and carried to tho barn in such
a green State as to bo nearly ruined by
heating in tho mow. His neighbor
has several acres of hay down, but he
does not think it is going to rain, so
he gets his hay in nice order, before
drawing it, at tlio same timo ho re
marks that he docs not see how neigh
bor A managed to get liis hay fit to
draw so much sooner than ho ai l his.
At the same timo farmer A. is consul
ting his barometer and thinks that it
ought to rain, but it does not rain.—
There may have boon a littlo wind or
very likely a summer sliowor passed
.around to the noith or south, but it
does not rain at his place in a week.
The same trick is playi and oh him some
fine Juue morning, llis’grasa is ready
to-cut—his neighbor’s machines are
running—but ho durst not start his,
for lie has consulted his barometer and
finds that there aro indications of
stormy weather not far in the future.
He does not start li.is m&cliino until
next morning. During the day he
keeps a close watch of the 6ky und
his barometer. In the aftcfnoon a
cloud rises in the West, dark and
threatening. *‘lheie, it is just as I ex
pected ; those neighbors will got thoir
hay wet and badly damaged. Why
could not they havo como over and
consulted the barometer ?” Hut 10, a
break in the cloud ; a little rain passes
a few miles to the South alight for a
few minutes at his place, and all is
over. Ho consults his baromotor—the
indications aro that it will bo fair
weather to-morrow. Yes, audit is good
weather for a month. Tho next day
he is mowing while his neighbors aro
drawing, and lie says to himself, “I
would givo ten dollars if I had cut
this hay yesterday; now I shall be
One day behind when tho rain does
come.” The foregoing is not too high
ly colored, and here is whoro tho
laugh Comes in—l have owned a first
class barometer for many years and
speak from experience.
