APPLY TO A, Van A1 the M ivi.-t la Sax i ll ■ Bank . j COM MUXII'ATKD.] The Gorin Tlioory of Disease. tty X. J. M. GOSS, M. 1). Tliere are hundreds of persons j tailing victims lo lung diseases every day, and thousands going i to an untimely grave every year. { And with the circumscribed lim j its of the regular profession in j the use of remedies, this will con j Unite to be the case. Religion should not. ho established by law*, demagogism should not be estab lisheil by law, neither should dog matical medical el hies be forced upon (lie sick, while rational med ication is excluded by medical cliques, as is the easWiow. Is there any way.to prevent or j lessen the mortality of pulmona ry disease in this country? There is a way to lessen the ravages of lung diseases; and it is better to prevent disease than tocufe it af, ter it invades Ute system, The epicure devitalizes his digestive organs find bacteria tire generated by millions; and if his nervous system become exhausted vibrios germinate by thousands. And so with other morbid conditions, which give rise to peculiar germ development. We need indus trious investigators, with iron I wills and gigantic intellects to de velop the hidden sources of dis ease, and tind the antidote to our ills. The world is already full of a shoddy aristocracy, feeble in in tellect, totally unfit to enter the field of scientific research, and work out the grand problem of human health and life, Why does parasitical growth ! take place in (lie tissues of the human frame? Answer, because of a deviation from health or nor mal life. For instance, the de pressed condition of the respira tory organs causes the develop ment of the amoeba, which per meate the mucus surface of the j air tubes of the lungs, as well as those of tiie nose anti throat— ! hence the catarrhal affections of 1 the summer called “hay fever.” ; Depressed conditions of the gas tric mucus membrane give rise to i the generation of bacteria, which j causes disease of the digestive ; system. Bill a highly vitalized state of ! the system, with a good supply of ozone in tiie air, resists the mor bid influence, and health will con tin tie. Let water become stag nant, and millions of infusoria are at once developed. This I am 'demonstrating with the micro i scope daily. II is a law in nature, that in highly vitalized structures no parasitical growth can he gen ended and continued, but upon devitalized tissues or organs t hat | i fungus can and will grow. The | forms of parasitical fungi difl'er I according to the local ion and soil, and each one produces special forms at disease. Amo ba pro * duces lung and throat diseases, bacteria stomach disease and ery sipelas, the vibrios produces ty phoid fever. These parasites are of the order fungi or algos, and are composed of simple sporules, , germs or cells, and these cells ar ranged in groups or layers. The fungi is the most numerous in its species of all plants; it is very numerous also in its genera.—- Whenever the process of nutri tion is impaired, and the renewal of life lessened thereby, then the pari furnishes the proper soil fori the production of these crvpoga mic parasites. Ame lia selects the mucus surface oi the nose and air lubes; the bacteria selects the mucus membrane of the stomach ! and mouth; larcina ventriculi se lects the cavity of the stomach. Scientific physicians may sweep the fields of the invisible world j with Ihe microscope, just a I lie t astronomers have done the starry fields above us with the telescope. 1 lu* air we breathe is loaded with the seeds (sporules)of living an tities, and it our systems are en feebled by any excesses or viola tions of natural laws, then these spores iind a suitable nidus to which they cling, and soon till ns willi disease and death. Extreme cold precludes the possibility of this kind of apparent spout tine oils generation. In Greenland and Lapland t here is no cat arrh. Aniucbu are spheri cal in form, tlma 000, and are composed of nitrogenized sub stance; iodine gives them adatk purplish color. The working class,'as well as those of leasurc, are interested in these investigations. A large per cent, of the din eases of this country is the re j suit of these parasites. Ami how b> gua.nl against t hese diseases, is what all should know. There are certain antiseptics, which, in ab sence of ozone, will aid in the cure and the prevention of dis | ease ; the sulphites, chlorides ami iodids may be used with success !in many of the diseases cai/scd jby those living'onlities. In ordi I nary catarrh of the summer, call 1 ed “ hay favor,’’ the timely use of I sulphurous acid, or the sulphite jof soda with an ordinary spray apparatus, will often abort the | disease, and in many cases, pre vent serious lung diseases. For after the amoeba lias so absor bed the mucus tissue of the air pas sages as to produce decay., then another form of parasitical life ensues, to wit: the odium albi cans and ulceration, aphonia and !•1 . 4 ; violent, chronic cough sets in.— Many cases of chronic bronchitis and asthma have their origin from j the same source. I have just examined the sputa of a patient with chronic bron chitis, and found it lilled with the amoeba. And any one who may be incredulous to these facts are invited to come to my office and examine for themselves. 1 will take pleasure in showing these facts by an actual demonstration | with one of Quee’s best micro j scopes. j Many cases of deafness is catts j ed by the eustachian tubes being permeated by the aimcba. The non success in the treatment of lung diseases has been for >vanl of a knowledge of fheircau.se We may know a remedy, if we can appreciate the cause of the malady. Yellow fever, now tag ing in the West, might lie sue cessl'ully met, if we knew the real nature and cause of the dis ease. Providence has provided a remedy, Iml. in our ignorance, we still complain that there is no remedy for (his terrible scourge. Commercial Fertilizers. The use of commercial fertili zers lias greatly increased in the Stale of Georgia since (lie law of February, 1877, which went into operation the following Heptein her. This requires Hie Commis sioner of Agriculture to prohibit the sale of any aminoninted su perphosphate which does not con tain at least eight per cent, of a vuilable phosphoric acid and two per cent, of ammonia ; and of any acid phosphate or dissolved bone which does not contain at least ten per cent, of available phos phate acid. This insures to eve ry farmer a fair article in any fer tilizer that, he can buy on the market if it has the guaranteed analysis and the inspectors tag on or attached to it, as required by law. Of the 93,478 tons re ; ported by the State Commission er of Agriculture as having been placed on the Georgia market last season 78,146 tons were am- I moniated superphosphates and I 15,332 were non am mediated or acid phosphates. In England no sale can be found for fertilizers not having tho guaranteed analy sis. Before the enactment of this law tlio sale of fertilizers had and& tninished much; but since, the' quantity sold lias been greatly in creased. The now law in relation to fertinzors at last in operation in New*York furnishes the pro tection anxiously waited for b$ agriculturists of I he empire state.' This is as it should be. Where ever introduced, chemical fertili zers must have other than the word of the sellers jfl insure for I hem a generous rjH tjonuge. Farmers naturally IS maud, at the present highrajSj per t"n of artificial mantiS, evidence I hat t hoy are htiyiiiS-Y.; art id, - |mill for and not the less mixtures (on frequcutfHral posed on them. When conuH|| cial fertilizers are with a formula tested by analysis, so that farm can sel led, and apply with iittflerstaiid mg to their soils the plant food, required and in the desired pro I portions, then, and not till thenj will artificial fertilizers come general use. V [No. 0. Experience aiqj ohservntiSi long :igo convinced all farmers worthy ol the name of agricultu rist that liberal manuring pays, and every year adds to the num ber <d those who admit the con venience and economy of calling in artificial fertilizers to aid tlioj compost heap in its work of up(| plying plant food to worn wall hinds and fields under cultivation. Heretofore commer cial fertilizers have not come in i to the market round about with provisfmis9PS| insure their genuineness. Mariyl farmers, in consequence, wj|3| have tried them in good faun have been wofully disappointed, led to condemn them wholesuliy ami to believe that the oulfl source of renovation lies iu muiiK tires made on Ilnur farms and in. careful and patient cull Lack of success has not always, however, been tho fault of the fertilizer; that may have been all it was represented and yet lack ing in an essential element for the crop to which it was applied, though rich in others not re quired. In order to avail themselves to the fullest extent of the undoubt I ed benefits gained in a judicious | application of artificial fertilizers ,in conjunction with home-made j manures, cultivators should be intimately acquainted with the ! character of I lie soil they are til ling, (he demands of the crop which is to be grown thereon and the capacity of the manure and compost heap to provide the plant food, called for. Having thus learned what is. actually needed, the next care is to see to it that the ferlilizer selected includes in its formula the necessary ele ! monts lacking, and in the desired i proportions. The expense, fur | therm ore, ought to be counted ! between the application of a com mercial fertilizer and the turning n inter of green crops, and other methods of renovating requiring no outlay in dollars and cents he lore going outside the farm for help. Every fallow gained, eve ry crop ploughed under, and eve ry change which substitutes a | growth enriching the ground for ! one that has previously rohhedTf', without loss of time*, is so much, profit., and, on the principle of a “ penny saved a penny gained,” should be resorted to when as has already been intimated—it serves an equal purpose and at a less cost than the employment of commercial fertilizers. But if, as, must often occur, an outlay for i fertilizers means time and money j saved, it. is sheer folly to hesitate in making the outlay where the genuineness of the article in question is insured.— New York War hi Ihi onntine of Hunt a/hi Surat.
