THE ABSORPTIVE POWER
OF SOIL.
It is an important -discovery of
recent date, that soils have the
power of separating not only ammo
nia, but other bases also, from their
solutions, and of holding them with
great tenacity after their absorp
tion. Thus 100 grains of clay soil,
taken from the plastic clay forma
tion of England, absorbed 1,050
grains of potash from a solution of
caustie potash containing one per
cent. of the alkali. It is interes
ting to observe that the liquid was
not, in this case, filtered through
the soil, but the cold solution was
merely left in- contact with it for
twelve hours.
It has been further shown that
soils have the ability to separate
the alkaline bases from the acids
with which they are combined.
When saline solutions are slowly
filtered thro4gh soils five or six
inches deep, the liquids which
passed through were deprived of
their alkaline bases, as potash, soda,
ammonia and magnesia, only the
acids were to be found in combina
tion with some other base. Thus,
when muriate of ammonia was
filtered through the soil the ammo
iia was removed, and a correspond
ing quantity .of lime, in combina
tion with muriate acid, was found
in the filtered liquid. In the same
way 'sulphate of potash was derriv
ed of its base, and the liquid collect
ed gave suil hate of lime.
Those soils which have the great
est amount of capillary porosity
~wil condense the greatest amount
of manurial substances on their
internal surfaces, will retain them
longest against the adverse solvent
action of water, and will give them
out most readily to the rootlets of
* the growing plant.
A mass of adhesive clay will
absorb but a very slight amount
of available manure; but if this
same mass is rendered friable, by
mechanical processes, its power of
absorption is- amazingly increased.
In view of what has been stated, it
is very clear that one way in which
plowing increases the fertility of
land is by increasing its porosity
* by pulverization.
*Again, many manarial substan
ces exist in the soil, which, being
insoluble, exercise no action on the
growth of plants, and contribute
nothir.g in their nutrition ; but by
the slow, though regular action of
the fr-osts and the rain, the air and
the sunshine, insoluble and refrac
tory compounds are reduced to a
soluble state, and arc appropriated
and held on deposit by the soil to
the credit of the next cultivated
crop. This explains the well
known fact that soils, which have
been cropped to the very verge of
barrenness, will rec'over their fer
tility if allowed to remain long
enough under the action of climatic
* influences to saturate the soil with
the necessary plant-food, which
they, have unlocked from their
chemical combinations, and given
to the soil in a proper physical con
. dition. These changes are brought
about more rapidly when certain
mechanical changes of condition
are wrought upon the soil.
Carbonic acid is one of the most
active of the agents employed in
*bringing the ins-luble organic
matter in the soil into that physi
cal condition in which it becomes
available as plant-food. In~ brder
that this acid inay be formed, it is
essential that the carbonaceous
matter :n the soil should be brought
into direct contact with the atmos
phere, from which they procure
~ ~Pf~P~arv to convert
SWEET POTATOES.
It is very desirable that this
crop should be largely increased
upon our Southern farms. Espe
I cially does it commend itself to all
advocates of stock raising. Every
one knows its great value as hog
food, and some perhaps as cow
food. It is often regarded as a
troublesome crop. and so it is for a
few days in spring, when the slips
tare to be set out, and a few days
in the fall. when the crop is to be
gathered. But what are ~these
compared to the trouble of a cot
ton crop? And when designed for
hcgs the bigger half even of this
little trouble is avoided, for they
will gather the crop themselves.
To be sure of a good yield, the
slips should be put out itn May
though with some of the early
maturing varieties, such as that
variously designated in different
localities, as the St. Domingo,
Bahama, Mexican yam, Poor Man's
Potato, and another known as the
red yam-fair crops may be made
from slips set out as late as the last
of July. Even with these early
varieties 2t is best to put out slips
early, and thus secure a crop of
vines which may be used as "slips"
in the later plantings. Last year
we- made a fair crop, of the two
varieties above mentioned, from
vines planted the first week in Au
gust!
The best manure for the sweet
potato is that which suits best also
for the Irish potato, viz: woods
mould, or chip manure and ashes.
In the absence of these a little
superphosphate and Kainit-75
lbs. of each per acre, in drill-does
remarkably well. Cow-penned
land, which has had its grossness
taken away by one or two years
of some other crop, is also admira
bly adapted to the sweet potato.
A short time before the slips are
to be put out, let the land be bed
ded. Just as soon after a rain as
it gets in ploughing order, is the
time to do this-the ground will
then retain moisture a long while,
and slips planted in it be less liable
to die. Groat the slips in a puddle
of clay and cow dung-put in hole
and if very dry partly fill the hole
with dirt, then pour in a little wa
ter, and af ter' it has soaked in fill up
with dry dirt. iDo this in the latter
half of the afternoon. Slips can
be thus started in very dry wea

ROW TO GET RID OF FLIES.
The warm, sultry season is rapidly
coming on, and with it the advent
of the troublesome house fly. Many
and various have been the devices
to rid the household of this intole
rable pest, buat nione have been
successful. The Rev. George Mears
Drought, writinig from Ireland says:
"For three years I have lived in a
town, and during that time- my
sitting-room has been free from
fies, three or four only walking
about my breakfast table, while all
my neighbors' rooms were crowded.
I often congratulated myself on my
escape, but never knew the reason
of it until two days ago. I then
had occasion to move my goods to
another house, while I remained on
for two days longer. Among other
things moved were two boxes of
Geraniums and Calceolaries, which
stood in my window, the window
being always -open to full extent.
top and bottom. The boxes were
not gone half an hour before my
room was as full of flies as those
around me. This, to me, is a new
discovery and perhaps it may serve
to encourage others in that which
is always a source of pleasure, and
which now proves also to be a
source of comfort, viz: window
gardening."
Vegetables should never be wash
ed until immediately before being
-prepared for the table. ~Lettuce
is made almost worthless in flavor
by dipping in water some hours
before being served. Potatoes
suffer even more thao other vege
tables through the washing pro
cess. They should no't be put in
water till just ready for boiling.
A glassful of a strong acid lemo
nade drank every morning before
breakfast during the early spring
is better than pills for constipation
or biliousness. To suck the lemon
is better for active effect.
One teasp'onful of honey, one
of powdered alum, one of flour,
moistened with good vinegar and
poultice twice a day, is a cure for

How many soldiers did you receive

conveyed in a single sentence in the
letter of this searching after truth. He
says: "To-day, I find in a small book,
entitled 'La Guerre et La Ch:rite,' page t
100, allusions to associations formed
in Carolina." This seems to be all he
has ever heard of these charities,
