FIELD AND FIREIDE. THE USE Of PLASTER, The following statement of the use and value of plaster or gypsum was i-ommiinii;ated" to the Farmera' Club of New lorfc city, by . I. Jj.arly: Gf Plaster acts as a condenser of the began.- a iyigorouk:-:$4u,lr:VPoni'.tlie aiamonia 'of- the atmosphere and of iron bars of the cage, vainly endeav'r -the soil. Plaster of Paris is composed- oring to break through. The strug of sii!piuivic acid and lime. A bushel gles of the great brute drew a crowd of this substance, if it acted as a ma-s around the. cage, but, when the wood mire, would clearly exert but a very work began to sucgumb to the furi sroall effect upon an acre of i land by ous assaults of the enraged animal, its chemical action npon plants, 'or and it became evident that there was bv entering into canibinatiou m the great danger of its escaping from its frowtii h nf cmns.

" There are a few phenomena which seem to me' to fully establish the fact that this is the true explanation of the action of plaster: That only a certain . amount will act. Inns a bushel to the acre, sown upon : a clover field, 'act'-as well as fifty bushels showing that it does not act as a manure, as a stimulant, or a gastric pice, or m any. other manner analogous to any of these agencies. ,,!.. ' "Sow a field with plaster in clover," or any other grass, leaving out a , -breadth, or in plastering a crop of to bacco as I have frequently seen it done leaving a few rows withouthe application, and the result -wili be that, while the parts of the crop to which the plaster is applied will! be liourishing and green, those On which no pla3ter is put will be yellow and wortniess, indeed greatly anterior to what they would have been had no SofUeSd pans oi tne tieia. - "How can this be -explained except. in.on thehvDothesis that. t.h nlaatfir w.v.. i.i i the atmosohere mssino- ovPr'it -.uraws ji part of its fenUiriiiir" properties and retains it for the nse of the plants in proximity to it, while those portions where there is no .plaster do not thus derive this greater share from the at mosphere ? ' " ' "Again, sow upon a dunghill. steaming and giving off ammonia, a huit viu f quantity ot plaster; ennf?' stop the escape of gas." Wait awhile, nnt.il t.ho TvincA .

"Take Peruvian guano, whose great fertilizing property is amnlonia, mix plaster wiih it in proper ' quantity, :inii it will become inodorous. - And so of any other animal or vegetable manure which cives off ammonia. "Oreat losses are sustained in sta-- lies, in fips.cnrlla in nil ni.imal onrl ; vegetable manures, by the escape ot. l aHnonia, which constitntes by far by - r lit of all manures. . rias- nay be most profitably fixine this volatile and tur i a a I 1 aris in 1TI "'"M. valuable ingredient, to the great piotit.of the farmer and the public."
