htscovery of Micro-organisms on Which
All Humanity Depends -It Is Sold That
No Animal or Plant Life Could Esist
Without the Aid of These Oerma.
Washington, Sept. 20. The most Im
portant subject discussed at the meet
ing of the Association of Official Agri
cultural Chemists in Washington was
a new discovery, which may be fairly
termed sensational. 'Phis discovery
relates to a species of microbe which
uctually mukes plants grow. In it has
been found the mysterious agent by
whose aid all things vegetable ure en
abled to absorb nitrogen, which Is their
chief food. Without Its assistance
plant life would disappear entirely
from the earth, and In consequence ani
mal lire. Including mankind, would per
ish likewise. Yet this beneficent micro
organism Is so small that It can only
be seen when magnified S00 diameters.
It is a bacterium aud u micrococcus
that Is to say, shaped like a little ball.
An experiment is now being made in
the breeding of these microbes by Pro
fessor Wiley, of the chemistry divi
sion of the department of agriculture.
They multiply at an enormous rule
when f utilised with proper food, and to
produce them ill indefinite quantity Is
easy. Their business In life Is to ab
sorb nitrogen from the- soil and from
the air and to transform It Into nitric
acid. In this shape It Is taken up by the
tissues of the plants, which are not
able to consume the nitrogen in the
crude. Recently a trial was made with
a field of several acres In Florida, on
which nothing would frrow. Analysis
proved that the soil was very rich In
nitrogen, but none of the micrococci
were present. So a small amount of
stable manure was applied thinly to
the surface of the ground, and lo! a
wonderful cron was the result.
The secret of It was that stable ma
nure Is full of these peculiar bacteria.
The later went to work at once upon
the nitrogen lying Idle in the hitherto
barren soli and transformed it into
available plant food. It has long been
known that stable manure contained
very little plant food, and so, until now.
its great efficiency as a fertilizer has
been a mystery. The day may yet ar
rive when the farmer will aoply a so
lutlon (f microbes Instead of a fertll
izer to ms sou. odviousiv. such a
method would only be tried In cases
where tne bacteria were found to be
acKing.
Without the heln of microbes of this
species plants will die In the richest soil
Wrlth their assistance certain kinds of
plants are able to absorb and utilise
the nitrogen In the atmosphere. This
in most part!cularly true of the peas.
Deans, clover and other leguminous
plants. Farmers have long: known that
there was no better way to enrich a
neia man to plant it with clover, or
beans, or peas. The reason why Is
simply that micro-organisms of the sort
described infest these slants in great
numuers. Living in tne rootlets, they
ply the trade of agricultural chemists
on a small scale, but most efficiently.
Their colonies are marked by little ex
crescences or pimples on the roots.
They are' manufacturers of nitric acid.
They do not live in the roots of cereals
hence the desirability of rotating corn
with clover.
In furnishing nitrogen to the soil
the farmer Is supplying stuff for the
microbes to work on. It has been stat
ed ulready that nitrogen is the most
valuable of plant foods. It is ulso the
most expensive, costing from 16 to IS
cents a pound. Sometimes It Is applied
to the land In the shape of wasto from
packing establishments and abattoirs
scraps of Intestines, etc., which are
boiled to get out the oil and finally dried
end ground. At the slaughter house
nothing Is wasted. Kvery drop of blood
is saved, to be dried anil ground. Dried
blood is the best of all materials for
yielding nitrogen. It may be said In a
rough way that nitrogen makes the
flesh of plants, while phosphoric acid
makes the fat.

WASHINGTON GOSSIP.
,- "'-. Tribune Bureau,
SIS Fourteenth street. N. W..
Washington, Feb. IS.
Speaker Reed's determination to keep
down .appropriations is liable to lose him
more-votes for the presidential nomina
tion than it will make him. It Is said that
he favors a big cut all along the line in
river and harbor appropriations. This Is
where Speaker Reed will antagonize nl.ie
out of every ten members of congress.
A member who represents a district which
hasn't a river, harbor or mud pond and
which doesn't want an appropriation is
a genuine curiosity. The river and harbor
bill is the barrel from which every mem
ber expects to pull a slice of pork. When
they fall to get any other kind of an ap
propriation for their districts they intro
duce a bill for the improvement of some
river, creek or tad-pole pond. In a ma
jority of cases It Is a cold steal. Borne of
the stream for which appropriations are
asked are no more apt to be made naviga
ble than the Lackawanna river. But that
makes no difference to the fellow In whose
district aad stream is located. He wants
the appropriation Just as badly as the
colored minister wanted the groundhog
when he was oi't of meat and was ex
pecting visitors for dinner.
The only way in which Speaker Reed
can cut appropriations In the river and
harbor bill Is to smother or kill the meas
ure In committee, and such a thing is next
to Impossible. If the bill ever gets into
the house it will go through with a rush.
The Fifty-first congress, of which Mr.
Reed was speaker of Hhe house, appro
priated neaily .S.nuu.0ui) for river und har
bor Improvements, und President Hani
son promptly approved It. The Fifty
third congress cut those figures In twain,
but President Clevelund, who was ul-
ways been opposed to appropriating
money for such purposes, declined to sign
the bill and ullowed it to become a law;
without his signature. Probably .Speaker
Reed is afraid the president will veto the
bill if It is too big.
There Is every reason to. believe that
there will be no appropriations for new
public building this session, although
many bills have been Introduced. Speaker
Reed was very careful In making up the
committee on public buildings ami
grounds. Before putting a man on that
committee be tlrst found out whether or
not he wanted a public building for his
district. If he did he went on some
other committee.
II I! I!
The Traus-AtlHiitii- Htennndilp compa
nies have u powerful lobby at work hero
to dereat the Stone or uny other Immigra
tion bill that may be presented to con
gress. The Junior Order of American Me
chanics and other patriotic associations
also have guard!' on duty to help pass a
restrictive lav" of some sort. It Is doubt
ful, however. If a prohibitive measure will
get through IM' si salon.
T notice that the Scranton Times doubts
the accuracy ami truthfulness of my
Interview Willi Senator Quay in which
the seti'ilor wh? quoted as saying that he
understood tho Kepubllcan ticket of that
i !ty would be circled by at least 2,000 ma
jority. If the young mun who wrote the
Times' artlJlo will come down to Wash
ington 1 will take great pleasure In In
troducing him to Senator Quay und sev
eral other hiKKir and greater men thui
he ever met before. The Interview In
question was toritii-t In every particular,
and one which, I dare say, the aforesunl
young mun on the Times would be unahla
to get from Si mitor Vfttuy or uny olh -r
public man for the reason that men of
Senator yimv'j standing are not In the
habit of belli ;f Interviewed on Important
topics by novice In the business.
In speaking or Senator Quay recalU
a .lory I heard the other day. The sen
ator's euinmtitKu room at the caplol
faces the white house and the Washing
ton monument. He was looking out of
one of the windows the other morning
when Major McDowell, clerk of the
house, vvulktJ in knit saluted the Senntor
thusly: ,
"Ah, se, ttir, lcoklng at the white house,
t presuni' ."
"No. mujor." replied the senator with
a smile, "1 was looking at the the mon
ument." "Who killed the f lie 'silver bill?"
"I," said Speaker Keed, "with my little
gavel."
"What's In a name?" Is an old saying,
but there seems to be a good deal In some
names when It comes to presidential can
didates. Anil ll! Is that name. There
Is Hill Allison, Bill McKlnely, Pill Morri
son and Hill Whitney all presidential
possibilities. But, after all. Rill may no:
be the winner. It may be Matt.

A WILD WESTERN VIEW.
W. K. Curtis, In Chicago Record.
L. 8. ,1. Hunt, formerly editor of the
Seaftle Post-Intelligencer, and now In
China working up a railway concession,
told me last October tha Mr. Quay would
be a candidate for the nomination an 1
was more likely to head the next Repub
lican ticket than any of the men then
named, 1 asked him what lunatic asy
lum he preferred to be placed In, and he
replied that he was never more sane or
serious In his life. Furthermore, he knew
what he was talking about. He said In
explanation thut the politicians of the Re
publican party were going to nominate the
president this time. The political condi
tons of the country were such that any
Republican who might be nunied would be
elected; that the political leaders In the
several stute-i were tired of dark horses
and accidents and statesmen like iluyes,
iiarfleld and Harrison, and they proposed
this year to nominate a man of their own
kind. Senator Quay was a typical poli
tician, the shrewdest in the United Htates.
and, therefore, he was likely to It- the
man.
PRACTICAL CIIAKITV.
From the Chicago Times-Herald.
At various times well-Intended efforts
have been made by charitable people to
found semi-public pawn-broking shops at
which needy people might procure loans
on personal property at n low rate of in
terest. 1'nhapplly nothing came of nny of
thee schemes until in New York the
Provident Loun society was founded a lit
tle over a year ago. It shows that the
business not only furnishes great relief
for the poor but can be made of .profit fo
the promoters.
The society lent more than $600,000 on
3T.,0K1 pledges ; 23.7S9 pledges were re
deemed. The rate of Interest charged
was 1 per cent, a month, whereas the
statutory rate In New Vork is 3 ptr cent.
a month. The society, arter paying tixc-il
charges and all expenses of management
and writing off 40 per cent, on' oflice fix
tures, earned !- per cent, per annum on
Its contributions. This was returned to
the holders of certificates. So profitable
were Its transactions that It has de
cided to enlarge the operations or tne
bank In a way fo make them reach more
effectively the deserving poor.
