Alrcittiral llyartfilt. EMMMME= WEDNESDAY MORNING; Feb. 3, '69. Curious and. Useful Notes on time. The lime we use to_ fertilize our fields, and to plaster our dwellings, is an interesting as well as a useful sub stance. Perhaps a. little knowledge of what it is, and how it behaves,will invest the walls with other attractions than mere whiteness, and divert the attention while engaged in the - disa greeable work of sowing lime broad cast on 'a windy day.—lf we take in our hand a lump of caustic or fresh burned lime weighing 28 ounces, we are really holding 30 ounces of metal, which is much lighter than lead, and a little harder. The chemist calls this metal calcium. The otherB ounces is a substance _ named oxygen, (which makes up 8 ounces in ,e'very 9, ounces of pure water, and B_cninces in every 64 ounrces of air.) One little afoinof the oxygen joins one atom of the cal cium,_forming what the chemist calls oxide of Calcium, whiCh is dime. ; To abbreviate it, we write CaO., the 'Ca standing for the calcium metal, and the O. for the oxygin. • The 'calcium atom is 2i- times heavier than the-dx ygen attar, The mass of lime we hold is made up of innumerable pairs :of these atoms. __'When a piece of wood is burned or rots in the air, each little atom 'of carbon' (coal) in the wood unites with-two little atoms of oxygen in the air,' arid floats away unseen.— ..This-gas,-called-carbonic acid, is writ ten CO., - the C standing for one atom .of carhop or . coal, andthe 02, for two -atoms of oxygen, (It is the - Sathe - gas that bubbles up in soda water,and the same that expands the holes in a loaf - of bread - Or cake, or inv griddle cakes, to make them light.)' • Now hold some fresh lime over the burning wood, 'and - an - atom 'of lime (Cao) will catch and hold an atom of - the' r eseaping,ca.rbonio - abid:(CQ2)zand we then get a new compbund CO2) which is called carbonate of lime, made up, as you see, of calcium metal and oxygen, witli-Ca.rbori , and-2 more atoms of oxygen,—all united closely. This compound is the same as white chalk. A number of these atoms com pacted into a solid mass; would make whitiinarble. Color it'in streaks or veins witha little inetallic oxide,and it is the variegated Italian marble,— Color it uniformly of a dark or brown ish lute, and'it is Our common lime stone. Remember, then, that chalk, lnarble, and limestone,-are composed of the same elements, differing mainly in their compactness, and in having a little coloring matter in the last two. If we strongly heat liinestone, mar ble or chalk, in • a kiln; or fire, - the carbonic acid (002) ie driven off as an invisible gas, and only‘lime (Cao) remains. This is the strong costic or fresh lime. If long exposed to the air, it extracts from it the floating car bonic acid, and - forms fine grains of chalky limestone again; new heating makes it strong or costie This caustic or fresh lime has strong alkaline qualities like those of potash. In its effort to get carbonic ..acid for which it has a great-liking or affinity, it destroys the flesh; it separates the elements of .all vegetable substances, such as plants, roots, muck, manures, etc„ taking away such eliments as will form carbonic acid for it to unite with. For this reason, we mix it with, soils to decompose the roots and otherl vegetable matters, and: thus let the atoms of the old plants go free to ens! ter into and nourish new_plants. We said that lime is an alkali, like potash and like soda._ There is an other class of some substance having opposite properties called acids. Vin. egar; lemon juice ; and oil of vitriol, are examples, The acids and alkalies !neutralize or destroy each others'act ive properties, and unity -together forming compounds_ -(called salts); .which are mert-often tasteless. _Sour vinegar unites With alkaline soda, and forms a simple neutral-.salt. Almost all vegetable matters, when decaying in the soil, especially if it be wet-,form sour or acid substances. These dark colored acids which make . a - soil sour, andd - upfit it for growing plants, are . called humic acid, oink acid, -&c. We add lime to neutralize or destroy them, and thus sweeten the soil. So, then, when sowing the lime, the farm-' er may be thinking about the ele ments of the lime, its metal. and its oxygen, and what offices .it is to per form in the soil. Remember what is here said, and at another time we may talk of that other very different com wound of lime, called plaster of Paris, -and how it acts on the soil. ABOUT MORTAR. - -52.1143, called .si- - - :Yea by the .chemist.isin.re.ality_a.kind .of acid, which uniteswith_alkalies.— It is made -up of one - atom ofahrown substance called si/icium (Si),. united with threeatoms of oxygen,thus,Sio2. Sand or silica and fresh, lime: mixed together,in time unite and form a hard salt. which is the mortar used upon the ceiling, and which cements stone walls. If lime has lain - exposed to air a long time, the carbonic acid steps in and unites with the lime, and the silica or sand is kept out. This is why tad air-slaked lime is not valued by the mason. This formula; CaO,Sio2, Shows the elements united together to form mortar, that is: the metal calcium (Ca) and the oxygen( o)forming lime, and this united with the silica (Si), and three atoms of oxygen (03)—all .of these strongly united. Has not mortar a new interest, thus looking at it with the chemist's eye ? SLAKING &TM —lf we add water ,tofrash burned, stone lime, every 28 .pounds of lime will unite with 9 lbs. ,of water, to form a ,new compound called hydrated lime. This falls to .Pt9..ge‘ T -T 1 1 ,j9A09 2 M.tiP% ( 2f . ,AV1V... fir'indlimegives out alarge amount, of heat which' was before latent or con cealed. After long exposure, lime gets this Water from the' air, 'and falls to pieces, or is air-slaked. _. As above explained, the carbonic acid it gets at the sanie time, injures it for Mortar, and for spreading on land. The best way is, to always get 'fresh burned lime, that which is in lumps, and, not yet watered or carbonated by the air. It will be seen also, that in every 37 lbs. of slaked lime a man buys,hegets 9 lbs. of water--quite an item Where it is to be hauled any distance- Twen ty-eight tons of fresh lime contains as much real lime, as 37 toris':of slaked lime,, or 50,tons of air carbonated lime. —AmericaTt. Agriculturist.., _ Hints on Impioving the Land. goney.properlynse4 is the - source of many the comforts of life; hence the great.end of farming is. : to . . make money. It .is not to embelish the land, to builiffine horisei, barns and fences; to raise fancy stock, or in- any. other way to - make a show It is to Make money, - to acquire. pro perty, with the-ultimate view-of ',lik ing the comfort of, it. The grand question is, bow can a farm be render ed-the most - profitable ?. ,s . And the in wer is, first and last, -by imprOving the soil so as-to Make it -most perma nently productive. The great defect of-American farms, at least this side of the Alleghenies, is - their imp6ver ished condition. They have been crop ped and recropped, 'their _products sold, and but _little returned 'to the land to keep up fertility. Any body can see that the net products of a farm which are 50. bushels of corn to . the acre, are much greater than one which gives - 40. For, if 30 bush els will bay the expenSes of tillage, there is a profit on the former of 20 bushels, and on the other of-only 10. Supposing this tolicild good on all the crops of the farm, is not 'oneacre of this first farm worth two 'of' th.e - sec ond ? In whatever - way we can in crease the income of the land above the expenses, we gain so 'much more profit, and this decides the value of the farm'. If land which gives a clear gain per acre of $7, is worth-$lOO to to the acre, then that which gives $l4 gain is worth full two hundred dol lars Per acre. . - It costs nearly as much to till land which yields only a profit of $3.50, as that which yields $l4, Why not, then, apply the extra - manure ,and the extra brain-work, and get the $l4? The first man_barely gets a living; the sec ond grows"rieh. The best agricultu rists here,and in England, :have found out this true principle, and it is the key ta their,sue .3esP.,._. They. m ake it a settled, invariable-.rule; to enrich the land, in proportion as they crop it, and to invest their surplus money-in the soil if they can be sure, of a fair interest for it. And this brings us to the old ques tion, how to enrich the soil? Few farmers have the means to bring up their lands at once. When the land holder and is land . are both poor, the farmer is in - a pretty tight place.— There is so little to begin with. 'The great reliance must . be on the barn yard, pig-pen,, poultry , fiouse, privy and green crops, and the muck bed. By some means, let him contrive to raise more grass- and' fodder crops; this will enable him to --keep more stock, and this, of course, brings the increased : manure.. By buYing .a few extra tons of-manure to start with,this will give the first increase in the grass, and so the ascent.will surely follow.— Grain and root crops will then come in for a share.of the_ land, and pro duce a share , of the profits. The im-; port - Alice .of draining, of . .deep plow ing, etd.-, we need not no*dwell upon. No goodfarmer will negleet them.— It must also be understood, at the outset, that_the work,of renovating an Old wornout farm is the work of years, and, must ;be prosecuted `with pa tience.—American Agriculturist. Is. 2UR ..WHiA.T. ; LAND RUNNING, OUT ?—We think not:: There are farm ers who raise as-lintel:l - Wheat per acre as they ever did. They have no bet ter land than theirneighbors.. There is no difference, except, that they farm' better. We May not be able to raise wheat as easily as when the land was new and full of organic matter from the decay of leaves. But if:more la bor is required, we get more than corresponding increase in price. So that, _in point of fact,' farmers are bet ter off than formerly. 4 Our mistake is in trying-to , raise wheat with as.lit tle preparations as when. the .:land was. neW. -- Tge - 'fariner. Who underdrains -hisAand, ,works thoroUghly, and keeps it clean, who makes, rich manure' and does not crop - . his laid too fre quently, can raise ailifuch wheat per acre as -he ever could. There can , be: 'no doubt on this point, 'We . ire:coil: fident that such farming - Will pay—and at all events, if it will not Pay, 'Poor farming certainly will not. We never heard of a case where good farming failed to afford. handsome p.rofits.—: American Agrzculturist. • HEN MANURE. -A subscriber writes: "I have about twenty barrels of pure hen manure;' will it do to let it lay in bulk? If not, what is best to mix with it, and in what proportion for general use r —lf you have dry - initelt," mix it with that, and , let it lie in a heap until it heats.. Then work it over and mix it with more,. doing so three' times perhaps, and finally having the hen dung mixed with" fully four times its weight of muck, and that will pro bably be eight times its bulk. Soil will do instead of muck, and common barn-yard manure will answer very well, and the compost will be very rich.—American. Agriculturist. TIN & SHEET-IRON WARE H.V,ET - -11170N . THE OLDEST.:."
