If pure, would be as valuable as any other fer

It is said that large quantities of the natural
phosphate of lime exists in the interior of
Spain ; it is also said to have been found in
the State of New York, and New Jcrsy ; and
as Pennsylvania is now moving onward in the
science of farming, the talents and energy of
her schools may, from the great variety of
limestone rock in onr State, discover the nat
ural phosphate of lime, which wonld bo of
great value. In Clearfield county we have a
kind of limestone which when burned and
slacked, shows every shade of color, from
white to indigo blue and black. It has been
moderately used on the land by s few farmers,
and appears to add greatly to the fertility of
the soil. Bone dust is another form by which
the farmer can add phosphorus to the soil. .
We will now notice some organic elements
cf plants. Of all the organic elements of plants
nitrogen is most important. It is found laige
lyin gluten, that most nutritious part of wheat;
one part of nitrogen and three of hydrogen
form ammonia, the most desirable fertilizer.
"While oxygen and hydrogen are taken into
the circulation, through the leaves, and car
bonic acid by the leaves and roots, nitrogen,
it 13 believed, is taken up by the roots only,
and not in the gase ous form, but when united
with hydrogen, or with oxygen (nitric acid or
aquafortis 1 atom of nitrogen and 5 atoms
of oxygen) forming nitrates of potash, soda,
&c. As farmers now know the great impor
tance and value of ammonia, they should also
know how to increase its amount on their
farms, and how to keep it there. It is very
volatile, and readily unites with carbonic and
other acids, and while united with the former,
it is still volatile, and passes away freely, as
the farmer may fcnow by the smell in barn
yard manure. The farmer can keep it in his
manure heap by sprinkling it from time to
time with oil of vitriol; or perhaps a better
plan would be to scatter sulphate of lime (plas
ter of Paris) occasionally. In both cases the
sulphuric acid unites with the ammonia and
as it is commonly termed "fixes it," i. e. de
prives it of its volatility.
Some farmers have made composts in which
they have mixed fresh burnt lime with the
manure of the stable, the lime having a stron
ger attraction for carbonic acid than ammo
nia has, takes it from the ammonia, sets it free
and it passes ofl and is lost. The effect would
bo the same with guano. To increase the
quantity of ammonia, the farmer should econ
omise by saving all his farm yard manure,
and not let it lie all summer exposed to the
sun and rains. Green manuring, especially
with clover or field peas, is a good plan for in
creasing the ammonia, for they take up a very
considerable quantity of nitrogen. The ma
nure of the common fowl is rich in ammonia,
and also in phosphorous. It is estimated that
-3 or I hundred pounds of this manure is equal
in value, to 16 or 18 wagon loads of stable
manure. It will pay to build a house for fowls
aud in this way their manure may be collec
ted and saved ; this I know from several years
experience.
Permit me further to engross your attention
on the subject of nitrogen. Every farmer
knows that each time he wcrks his corn with
plow or cultivator, it grows more rapidly for
a week or more, though his ground be pretty
tree from weeds. Why is it so ? In this work
he does not add manure to the field. Tho
same I am informed has been noticed in grow
ing wheat by sowing it in alternate rows of 3
or 4 feet in breadth, and using the cultivator
between them. Does not the crust on the
surface of the soil become impervious to the
air and the breaking of it let in the atmos
phere, enabling the roots lo take up more ni
trogen. A scientific gentleman in England (Mr.
Wilkins,) by experiments, has in some degree
at least proven this principle. His method is
to make a kind of a vat or tank, say 5 feet
wide and 20 feet long. He makes a bottom
or floor of clay, or other mateiials impervious,
to water, about 16 inches below the surface,
with sides of the same material 4 or 5 iuches
high. In this bed or tray there are two drains
made on the bottom, with tile or stone, a lit
tie inclined, so as to let any water or other
fluid pass to the lower end, where there is a
gate or plug to draw ofl' all the fluid in the
tank when desired, and let the air pass freely
through the whole length of these drains, the
removed soil being replaced in the tank over
these drains. At the upper end of each drain
a tube extends from the bottom to the surface
and one also at the lower end of each drain,
by which he can know how high the soil is
saturated by the fluid in the tank.
; The seed is sown or planted over these
drains. lie then uses manures in a liquid
form, and some times being offensive, by ap
plying in this way are soon deoderized by the
soil; and being applied to the roots of the
plants, and being divided into atoms, Is soon
taken up as proper food for growing vegeta
bles. He found by experiments that the ad
mission of air to the plant, to cause a rapidity
of growth at least two days in seven over com
mon culture. Now it appears that this admit
ting air benefits mostly by the roots obtaining
nitrogen, for oxygen and hydrogen are taken
nto the plant through the leaves. By this
method he gained time, so as to raise two
crops of hemp or flax in a year. Peas eight
times the quantity grown by the usual meth
ods. He cut five crops of grass from tho
eame ground of the first year's sowing where
only one crop grew before. lie grew Mangel
Wertzel at tho rate of sixty-nine tons to the
acre.
A lady can easily practice this method in
promoting the growth of her geraniums, &c,
"by having a small hole near the bottom of her
flowering pots, stopped with a cork j then
place in the bottom large gravel, two or three
inches deep, cover this with earth as deep as
she desires, and plant her flower roots. One
tube will be sufficient for the flowering pot,
nd if the manure be offensive she can place a
. toP f this tube, and prevent the
escape of ammonia in the room. The fluid
should be drawn off once a-weck, or oltcner,
and renewed by fresh mauure. The use of
fluid manure is not new, having been used long
since in Germany and other countries ; but
the method is new. Warm manure, in the
spring, would bring the plants forward in ad
vance of the season. .
By the analysis of rain water by chemists,
we learn that very considerable quantities of
ammonia are spread over the surface of the
earth. Atoms of potash and lime are also
found in rain water. These all-important ele
ments, being taken np from the earth by evap
oration, thus, by the immutable laws of the
Creator, they are carried to every region, giv
ing life and energy to the vegetable kingdom.
If man acts properly that part designed him,
(tilling the ground,) i. e., plows deep, they
will sink low into his field and remain for the
benefit of his crops ; whereas, if the surface
of his land be hard and impervious to water
they will again bo evaporated or pass away
with the water. That was a wise saying
'Tlow deep while sluggards sleep,
And you'll hare corn to sell and keep."
The farmer will gain much in culture by
deep plowing, and much can be said in its fa
vor, and also of draining.
I must express my great satisfaction and con
gratulate the farmers of Centre county in their
great good fortune in having the State Agri
cultural School established in their midst.
Situated, as it is, in the centre of the State,
few complaints will be made against its loca
tion. As it is in the heart of the State it will,
like the heart in the animal structure, send
forth knowledge from the centre to every por
tion of the Commonwealth. Young men will
become expert in chemical agriculture they
will become geologists new food for plants
will be discovered, and new methods practis
ed, by which larger crops can be grown, and
in less time than heretofore. Tho time has
even now arrived, in the present state of agri
cultural knowledge, that the farmer need not
leave his farm and go to tho far west because
his land is worn out. He can resuscitate his
fields in a moderate length of time, and make
them productive, if he will but use the knowl
edge and means already disseminated.
High encominm is due to that gentleman o
your county, who liberally donated the valua
ble farm for the State Agricultural School,
from the farmers of this great State ; aud they
will not withhold their esteem and thankful
ness from your enterprising citizens who so
magnanimously subscribed $10,000 additional,
for tho furtherance of this great, good and
useful enterprise.

LET US REASON TOGETHER.
HOLLOWAI'S PILLS.
WHY ARE WE SICK ?
IT has been the lot of the human race to be weigh .
ed down by disease and suffering.. HOLLO
WAY'S PILLS are specially adapted to the relief
of the WEAK, the NERVOUS, tho DELICATE,
and the INFIRM, of all elimes, ages, sexes, and
constitutions. Professor Holloway personally su
perintends tho manufacture of his medicines in the
United States, and offers them to a free and enlight
ened people, as the best remedy the world ever
saw for the removal of disease.
THESE PILLS PURIFY THE BLOOD.
These famous Pills are expressly combined to op
erate on the stomach, the liver, the kidneys, the
lungs, tho skin, and tho bowels, correcting any do
rangement in their functions, purifying; the blood,
the very fountain of life, and thus curing disease
in all its forms.
OISPEPSIA AND LIVER COMPLAINTS.
Nearly half the human race have taken these
Pills. It has been proved in all parts of the world,
that nothing has been found equal to them in cases
of disorders of the liver, dyspepsia, and stomach
complaints generally. They soon give a healthy
tone to these organs, however much deranged, and
when all other means have failed.
GENERAL DEBILITY. ILL HEALTH.
Many of the most despotic Governments have o
pencd their Custom Houses to tho introduction of
these Pills, that they may become tho medicine of
tho masses. Learned Colleges admit that this
medicine is the best remedy ever known for per
sons f delicate health, or where the system has
been impaired, as its invigorating properties never
fail to afford relief. -
FEMALE COMPLAINTS.
No female, young or old, should be without this
celebrated medicine. It corrects and regulates tho
monthly courses at all periods, acting in many ca
ses like a charm. It is also the best and safest
modicino that can be given toCbildren of all ages,
and for any complaint; consequently no family
should be without it.
Ilollotcay's Pills are the best remedy known in the
teorld for the following Diseases :
Asthma Diarrhoea SecondarySymptoms
Congbs ChostDiseases . Stone and Gravel
Colds - Fever and Ague Venereal Affections
Infl uenza Bowel Complaints Female Complaints
Coetiveneaslnflamation ' Worms of all kinds
Dyrpepsia Indigestion Lowness of Spirits
Debility Liver Complaints Inward weakness
Dropsy Piles Headaches ;
. Sold at the Manufactories of Professor Hol
