CARBOLIC ACID. WITII SOME OF ITS USES TO FARM ERS, GARDENERS, AND OTHERS, POINTED OUT. IBY 0. EMERSON, M. I). Among the rich discoveries made by the able chemists of' the preosent ag(,, are two kindred sub stancos--"Kreosote," by IReichon bach, and Carbolic Acid, by Rungo, 'both German chemists. "Creosote," (as it is generally spelled in this country.) was obtained by Reichon .bach from the distilled products of wood-whilst Carbolic Acid was subsequcntly obtained by Runge from tar distilled from bituminous coal. From many points of resem blanco between the two, Car bolic Acid is sometimos called Cre osoto of Coal, to distinguish it from Creosote obtainod from wood. But tho two substances .differ essentially in many of their -characteristies and properties. It is from common gas tar-a cheap rofuso in which it abounds -that most of the carbolic acid is made. In a pure state it exists in solid white crystals, which bo come liquid at a temperaturo of ninety-five degrees Fahrenheit. It is very abundantly manufac 'tured in a liquid form, the strength of which is little less than that of the puro crystals. Carbolic or Phonic acid has been found capable of' subserving a wido rango of utility, and in many of its adaptatations ministers to the requiroments of agriculturists. To some of these I propose to in vite you attention ; and first : Its use in protecting trees and plants from destructive para:sites. In view of' the destructive action exerted upl)on insects, the highest French authorities have pronoun cd-T' Acide 'henique, as they call it-the most powerful insecti cide cn.)yn. The pure and concentratod < forms in which this sUbstance is I kept For sale, are very caustic, and for ordi nary purtposes require great diu tion. Water wiill ontly 4 t ake up anid hold in solution five per cent.., which thecreforoe for'ms ai saturiated soluttioni. Bu~it whencm it is to be applied to te leaves, b)uds, and tenidor par'ts of' plait s, te saturtated soluti ions must be greatly reduced in strecngtht. so as to cont ain onmly a 1-1000this or1< 2-1000ths Ilart. pTe fir st ptropor'-< tin woutldi be maude by addintg a about 01n0 (drachml, ori albout onie cornmmon toasp~)onful to thle L'nl on a of w'ater. A strentgth of' 2-1000)ths part would be about half a d rachm I 01' half a tea-spoon ful, to the gal lon.

Thsmay be done by means of' a common wvater'ing-p)ot, or' w~hat is< still better', a zyringe w"it h a r'oso jet-. The eggs of' many insects foundi on the bar'k and br'anchcs of' plaitts and trees can generially be de-t str'oyedl by a solutioni~ contlainintg ai half' por' con t., the pr'opor1tiont of I the puroe acid to the gallon. Thtis inmut be c'opiously used, so as to 1 wvet the f'ol iago, but applied by 7 moans of' a br'ush or' mop, dIrawnit alotg to branchtos, oez1eially the < lower' side of' thtoso, whei-o they eggs of' cattorpillar's aroe goneralily Yh len tho eggs hatch out, thoe lar'va or wormils may be destr'oyedt inm few minutes, by applying to I them a satur-ated solutioni of' five p)er ccit., atnd less promptly byt rep)eate(d apiplicationls of' a sol- I tion conttaininmg only one 1por cent.

F or I this rea:son, wintor, whten the f'o- a ligo so would be tile bost sea-r son to cffeoct the dIestructiont of toe eggs of insects, t Another way of redlucintg the t str'ength of the puroe acid, so as to roendor' it a saf'o application for' purposes in whieh it is 1used, is j the introduetion into soaps, Somoe of those ar'e of a coarse char'acteor, suitable for dissolving and mak- ~ ing into washes for application to f trees andl p)lantVs. Otheors are of a finer quality, well suitedi for laun-r driy putrposes ; and some still more I refined and ar'omatized, are for f toilet use.c All of these car'bolized or'phonic- I atedl priepar'ations ar'o now manu- i factur'ed in this cit,y, and may be ( got at moder'ate picos by farmners, f gar'denors, or othier persons, witht tection of' trooes or plants against insocts, and( man and boast against, entaneous affections amnd animal paaie,they ar'e invaluable, as:< veli as for' their doteorgent proper' Tho pure acid is also on salo at most of the drug stores, being ox tensively manufactured in labora tories in this city. The retail price in the common liquid form is from 85 cent to $1 per pound bottle. Various powders are also pro pared for destroying and driving away insects and vermin of all kinds-ants, roaches, flies, moths, mice and rats-all of which are destroyed or driven away by the vapor of carbolic acid. Another remarkable power pos sessed by carbolic acid, is that of preservin,g organic matters from mould and decay. All spontano ous decay and destruction or do composition of vegetable and ani mal matters is effected through the processes of fermentation and putrofaction. These processes can not go on when carbolic acid is present in the minutest quantity. In an experiment made by Dr. Lcmairo, of Paris, 15 grammes of yeast, well mixed with wator con taining a saturated solution of -arbolic acid (5 per cont.,) had tdded to it 150 grammes of water tweetened with sugar. Notwith 3tanling the prevalence of warm weather (77 deg. P.,) there was not the slightest appearance of (ermentation, after eight days ex posure to the air. Other experiments exhibited timilar results, after much longer ceeping, the forment during aU ,ho timo being powerless. Meat has been kept in close ves 3ols and closets with only the va )or of carbolic acid rising from vide-mouthed, open bottles and lishes. The meat remained sound md free from any signs of putre action during many weeks in varm weather. Animal matters of every kind, ;uch as flesh, blood, urinous and ocal excretions, when in the most )flonsive states of putrefaction, lave had this process imm(liately hecked by a small addition of arbolic acid, which produced heir doodoration. The introduc ion into an inkatand of a very ninute quantity of carbolic acid 1-1000 part) will effectually pro. rent mould and preserve the ink nt a condition to flow readily. All ho infusorio, whether monads, 'ibrious or other lower organiza .ions, so abundant in substances lndergoing the fermentive and )trefactivo processes, are imlc liately dostroyed by contact with rarbolic acid. Hence the great ldvantages to comfort and healt h hieb may be derived from the ipplication of this substance to inks, foul stables and manure leaps. It may be proper to ob Crve that whero a. sink or cess )ool has had carbolic acid in sonmo if its preparations introduced to a'rest decomposition and effect loodorization, these objects are ittainel only temporarily where Itch places are open to the at. nosphore, allowing the free es ape of the )Iatilo acid, so that ceasional repetitions may be re Also when openI miouIthed bot les are p)latced in closets, ward. obos, etc., to keep moths fr'om lothting, thes pla ,hces, if not tight, nlust, be mtado so inl ot'der to reC aimn tho volatile acid ; otherwiise t will escape, and the field be left pen for the moths. So long as lhe acid can be kept, in, tihe moths, f not killed, will cer'tainily be :ep)t out. Thoe demonst.'ation made by )r. Lemaire of' the capacity of' ar'bolie acid to preservo meat, ns led to an extensive utiliz'ationt >f' (lhe acid for thlis purpose, as liay be shlown by reforonco to i'hat has boonl accomplished by a ingle firmn at Montevideo, having vast est ablishment for the slaugh.. er' of' catt,le, so sbun mdan t in that >art of Sout h A merica. Frmomi 250 o 300 an iinaas were daily slauigh ed( at this establish ment. The idos and1( tallow' of these have cetof'or'o boon the chief sour'cs P pr'ofit, tile imnsoI amount of' neat being nearly all lost. Va ious attempts had been madoe to mt this meat in a conditionl to dmit of its transportation to lEu opo, where it is mush needed. Lftetr several unsuccessful trials, his has been accomlished through he agency of car'bolic acid, as ocommonded thrlough Dr. lo-. ruaire, and( put in practice by Mi. jambert, Civil .Engineer of Paris. I have seen," says Dr. Lemair'o, at theoentrepot (d0s Marias (mn 1aris), many bales of moat brought rom thle La Platta, kept perfectly reserved for nine months by the rieans of phonic acid. I have ta :en of soup preparol'd froam it, alnd oundI it oxcllont--andl also eaten f tile meat at the restaurant (Io ra Gare d'Ivry, both boiled and oast,od. It p)rosentedl no sensihle tifforence from the ordinary beef' Dund( ini our markets." More han 25,000 bales of 100 ponds( to 00 pounds~ each, of this prossrved neat, have found a ready sale in he markets of Liondlon, Dublin, Iantchestor' and Liverpool. Sute essivo arrivals of cargoes at Ha ro andl Bordeaux, for the supply f t.hn renh markent, have benn received, and tho moat free from i bones, sold at a moderate price. i The firm of Biraben-Lambert, I in order to popularize this impor- 1 tant branch of their business, have 1 introduced into Paris the system of A merican 80oup-.houses (bouil- I lons Americaino), where the labor- i ing classes can obtain, for 20 con times, a bountiful supply of- soup, t along with half a pound of the t meat free from bone. Many such < establishments have since been i opened in several populous cen- i tres of the poor. t The public functionaries of the < 13th arondissement, after using f these meats on their own tables, f along with their families, have f given written certificates of their t soundness and excollonco, recom- < mending onlargement and multi- f plication of bouillons Americaine. 1 More than 500,000 killogrammes, c (over 1,000,000 pounds) of moat e from South America, preserved . by this process, have been received r at the custom houses in Paris. On L one of the fete days in Paris, M. 1 Lambert dispensed gratuitously a at bowl of soup and half a pound of t the South American beef; to 800 1 persons, who consumed four hun dred quarts (litres) of soup and i 200 killogrammos of the meat du- t ring the dlay. n The process employod by Mos- f ars. Lambert & Biraben to pro- v serve the meat of -cattle slaugh- f tered by them, is as follows: The meat separated from the 1 bones, is put into a hydraulic d press and subjected to compres- b sion ; it is thus formed into cakes c from 100 pounds to 200 pounds a each. These, after subjection to f the powerful compression, are il completely deprived not only of V moisture but of air. The cakes, v' immediately upon removal from I the ptress, which are coated on the li outside with a composition con- ii taining refined coal-tar, with the ( addition of 20 per cent. of pure q phonic acid. By this simple, in- c expensive and efficacious process, t the meat, deprived of air by con- r pression and protected by a coat c inpenetrable to the admission of v air and its sporules and infusoria u from without, was placed beyond il the power of corruption, with its r freshness preserved during long voyages through tropical lati- b ',udes ; so that on reaching Europe, s and being subjected to soaking for d a few hours, it was found in a per- ' fect condition to be eaten. If any t odor derived from the phenic acid n or coal-tar remained after the d soaking in water, it was entirely c dissipated during the process of F boilin' a In ance, :EInglatid, and other a parts ofI Europe, extensivo use is made of carbolic aci( for purifying h the air of stables and other places g where horses and cattle are kept. f< Tbc most convenient form of up- ii plying it in such cases is when v blended with some fine powdert, fi such as plaster of Paris, clay, sand, common earth o1 sawdust. The ii preparation of' this kind, most ex- 11 tensi vely known in Eurone, is that V of MachDougall, which is not only a uised in Eniglishi stables, but in t those of the Friench Emhperor.- s Tholi English stables are goneral!y a kept very clean, but they still cm- h p)loy this p)owderCI every morning, I spr'inkle'd on the floors of the fi stalls after they arc cleaned out, ti in the proportion of' about two V ounces to each stalb-the annual cost averaging about $1.25 per p~ annum for each horse. The eta- t. blos are thus not only kept healthy v and freeo frem vermin, flies and dI other insects, but .the manure n gathoed( from them is pre'served - froim (decomposition andl all offen- c sivo odor'.P Tho composition of' MacD)ougall li ronisists of' phenato of' lime and q sulIph ite of' magnesin. This andl ti other p)owdoerA, of w hich car'bolic fi acid is the acOtivo inigredC(ient, may t1 1lso) be aplied1 with great advan- ~ tage in chicken andl pigeon houses, d to keep away iinsects by which fowl1s and birds are in fested (. Flies and mosquitoes are quickly n overcome 1)y the presence of' car- , bolic acid. In a par't of the coun- a tr'y where I met with mosquitoes y almost ia clouds, I tr'iedl this ox-e peoriment: A powvder containing8 Lhe acid wvas mixed uip with butter an a plaito; before putting thme har' ness on a horse about to be driven, lhe was ver'y lightly smeared all over wvith this comp)osition-~an op omration very quickly doneW with a broom-corn withe or brush pattedl into the ointment nowv and1 then,. searcely any ap)pear'ance of the intment coutld be obser'ved on his d 30at after' the application was 0 finishod. The harness was then o put on, andl in dIrivinig the whole t] rtfter'noon, the animal scar'cely (1 over switched1 his tail or gave P; other sign of' annoyance.. In applications to animals this recid, used in solution, would quick- q ly evaporate in the open air. Hence ~ the ad van tage (derived from having ' it entangled in. some saponaceoons or unctuous matter, as we find it si in many of the preparations speeially ptreparedl for the putmrpose, Iven this will not provent the G requont. I am convinced that tuimals may be groatly relieved )y judicious applications of car )olio acid, in many places whoreo heir sufferings are often extremo. Serious and oven fttal results inve ensued to those who have 'eceived cuts whilst skinning or lissecting dead animals, similar to ,ho wounds occasionally received by miatomimts engaged in dissecting mt postmortom examinations. In uch cases the slightest cut or cratch allows the entrance into ,he circulation of animal poisons f extreme virulence, too often ullowed by symptoms of the most ormidable character, ending in attal results. In such emergency ho wounds might, as in the caso Xf stings and vonomous bites, be irat touched with the pure acid, ,nd afterwards dressed with a ompress steeped in a saturated olution in water (5 per cent.) urgcons, anatomists and voteri. arians would do well to havo a ottlo of carbolic acid solution lways at hand, not only to detergo nd remove unpleasant smells, ut as an antidote against poison ,bsorbed by wounds. Many troublesome a nd even aveterato discuses can be cured y a proper use of carbolic acid, mong which may be named, the Dot-rot in sheep, mango in pigs nil dogs, the greeso in horses' cet, old sores, etc. This agent, so destructive to the Dwer orders of the animal king om, strange to say, exerts a enign influence upon the higher lasses of warm-blooded animals, nid especially upon tho human atmily, by whom it may be taken lwardly in considerable doses, 'ithout inconvenience and often ith advantage to general health. )r. Lomaire expormimonted upon imself during many days, taking 1 the course ofeach day 1 granme about 15J grains) mixed in a uart of water. iIe reports 'a use where one of his patients ook for some time about a dracbm or day, divided intofour portions. ach dissolved in halt' a pint of tttcr. i refer to this internal se merely to show how harmless proves when taken internally, roporly diluted. Dr. L. recommends the acid to o taken habitually by persons re iding in situations where malarious iseases exist, such as intermittent, Cmittcnt and other fevers. About mn or fifteen grains of the acid lay be taken in the course of a ay-and half this quantity by hildren over eight years old. ach dose should be dilMuted with bout half a pint of water, sugar 11(1 water, or wine and water. H1orses and cattle often become oven from eating too mch fresh rass, clover or other succulent )od. These not properly digest ig, and the abundance of gas do elopod, causes great distonsion, -om which the animal often dies. As the presence of carbolic acid nmo(liately puts a stop to for lentation, a drench containing it 'onu1( pr'obably arrest further welling, and if this has not gone >0 far, enable thoe animal to arrive. lIn the p)roportion of' bou t a tablespoon-ful mixed wvith alf' a gallon of' water, I think 1no ar'm to the animal would 1'esult 'omf tihe drench. A smaller quan ty might answer where cases 'cro miost decsperamte.
