It is lamentably true' that while the trades thrive and grow fat in re converting the produots of the soil, a majority oi tne original producers are J themselves ; only comfortable livers at best, and too efte& belong to that numerous class who . are scarcely able, despite their most tire less efforts, to keep body and soul together. In farming, as in every other profession, those tox whom comes the most marked success, those that tower above their fellows, are tne educated, few. j I tell you gentlemen, we must find our really BuccesBiui iarmers ana iruit growers among those who are trained in these pursuits. Classical schools and col leges of liberal arts the country over are annually driving away our bright est young men fromj the country names into otner avenues, and the ranks of "the farmers are doomed to be replenished by the dull and unen- terprising young men, whom fathers, in tne parlance or the times pro pounce incapable of "taking an edu cation. And yet capital oppresses la uur, Httu iauor marveis and repines at the hardships and privations of nerjot. I tell you the only correction lies' in the education of labor. 1 1 do not mean by the education of the fatmer, the once prevalent idba that an education lay only in the mystic NBuuotauon oi musty lore or the ac quisition; of exbaustleBs; stores of oiassic fiction; that will do very well for those who follow the so called profession?, . but I submit that it wont; do as a method for makin farmers and fruit rower: it won fill our stock-pens and dairy yards; it won't turn the ponderous fly wheels oi Irani a or commerce.! In thiB great, teeming, thronging, busy world we neea mat sort of training which is of practical utility in" the real affairs of life. Classical educatiot msy fill a necessary demand among tain classes of our citizahship, but l suomit that the induatrial life r1 our commonwealth and oar nation demands an education that is tan gible and practical. We need an edu cation that will fit men for the busi ness of l life. r ! r f-i'-W. i But let us return to a point alluded to in the outset of thiB discussion, and put the practical test of science to the position I have taken- ' L9t ub take some pure, dry sand. It is, to all appearance, destitute nf earth and air as the component parts of all plants. But it may have ab sorbed some gaseous bodies from the air. In order to free it perfectly from such possible ingredients that could promote growth we will heat it to redness and allow it to remain at that temperature several, days until all volatile bodies must certainly have been eliminated. I will now place some of the cooled Band composed of neither volatile nor soluble ' parts in a suitable vessel, wet it with distilled water and plant in the "wet sand a given weight of corn, wheat or oats. Remember now, that there is nothing present but the hard insoluble silica of which the sand is composed and the pure distilled water. If the sur rounding temperature is suitable for germination, in a few days the grain will sprout and grow with some vigor. fMw. the stalks have attained their maximum growth, they be re moved from the sand and weighed, they will be found to have gained five times the original weight Of the seed The additional weight has then come only from the air and the water to gether with a minute amount of silica that might have been dissolved, that is to say, growth may take place with only four ingredients out of the four teen previously enumerated, viz: Carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and nitro gen, all gases, and are all contained in water and the air, Heaving the , . other ten! unemployed. Now let us vary i Oar experiment I not take the same weight of .seed as in the preceding Case, and add pure water to another vessel cf sand, but in addition I add linie, potash, soda, magnesia, iron, manganese, Bilica, phosphorus," sulphur and chlorine, the other ten ingredients that were emitted in the fir Bt experiment- When the stalks are grown as before I re move and weigh them- The weight has increased seven 1 times its original weight. This weight may still be in creased by omission of the elements, and the addition of some nitrogenous matter l. e .some body rich in nitro gen, such as stable compost dried blood, or cotton seed meaL' Once more I try the experiment ana use both the nitrogenous matter and the water, with the ten minerals. The change now is very marked. ' In the first experiment the Btalks were small and produced no grain; in the two succeeding cases there was oonsidera ble increase, but in the last the grain is large,' well-developed, and fully headed equal to a similar: growth in the richest sou. I have learned, then, by a soientifi-i study of the question, that certaiu bodies are neoessary to perfect plant growth and fruitage, and that perfect success in growth is exactly commen surate with the proper application of these bodies. And I might learn by experiment, with equal certainty, the exact ingredients and proper propor tions suitable to the growth of all plants. Nowi if I have dece ' this, I have learned how I may increase my crop from 6 to 10 per cent nearly double by the j adicious ubb of plant food of fertilizers, we have now i fought the battle with nature, mind has triumphed over matter, and the, "perplexing problem of pushing nature to her utmost has been solved. The same principles may applied to the growth of fruit, and the capacity for production be increased two fold. Aga:n, by experiment, I we may learn which ingredient is the dominant or leadirg I element in the! growth of ; each plant, i Thus, for txample, nitrogenous mat ter is the dominant of wheat. The inference is that large quantities of nitrogenous ma ter stable Products, bone or animal and vegetable matter and but little of the -other two ele ments should be used to produce the best resiiltB with wheat. . When we consider that these ten ingredients exist (with, the exception of lime, potash and phosphorous) n abun dance in all natural soils, w see at a glance bow simple has become the problem of fertihzition. Under this simplified phase of the problem, we have only three elements and nitro genous matter instead of ten elements -and nitrogenous matter. - j Potash is the dominant of the grape. The inference is simple, vie : ' Use for' grape growing a f ertiliatr in which potaBh is in predominance. The same is true for the potato, Jthe pea,! the bean - and clover. !
