Vador tho SupervUlon or ?he KxecutJv? Committee or romona CrniiK". IIoiiiC'Madc Fertilizers. Pr. J. lt. Nichol?, thc editor of Hie Journal of Ckemittry, recently had a full meeting, on his farm, of about one hun <1 ri cl working farmers, and delivered to them in the 'am an add rena on chemical fertilizers and their manufacture, from wilie!, wo take the following extra?:, which we copy from thc icportof the itassachu?clt? Ploughman : Dr. N. alluded to the meeting as "a /.limers' barn mei ting, or for the lime, he ilig, we will call it Our Agricultural College,'' and promised lo graduate all :iis hearers, in about an hour without diplomas. Ho added that "probably never before in the history nf agriculture in our country, has a meeting like this of farmers been field in such a place for snell nu object." "As thc sight is the readiest avenue to the mind, he ?aid that nt tho ?lose nf the lecture, Mr. Davis, the ellicienl superin tendent of this farm, will call you into thc barn yard contiguous, and then with apparatus and implements, such as are Used on the farm, will proceed to pre pare, not simply an ounce or a pound Inf fire hundred puuwls of superphosphate of lune, tho most important ?d' all forma of plant food. He will also show you other combinations ot fertilizers, a knowledge of which it i? Important to possess. You have seen the room or laboratory below, simple, plain, and without machinery, in which thc fertil izers for tho farm are prepared, lu that room, Mr. Davis, during tho pn?t winter, made about twelve ton* ol superphos phate ol' high grade, analyzing sixteen per cent, of soluble phosphoric acid, and also several tons of oilier compounds used in tho various crops on the farm. He will use three hundred and eighty pounds of bone charcoal, and a carboy nf oil of vitriol, one bundled ami sixty-live pounds, in making tho superphosphate, mid you must observo all the proceed ings, observe bow he handles the carboy so as to avoid spilling or slopping, hun he mixes the hone with tho acid and writer, how he manipulait s the mass with his wooden hoe. The box in which he will make the mixture is of wood, four feet sijuare and one foot deep, ami it is lined with thick sheet lead, -Hie lead in ono piece, soldered at the corners strong ly with friul Holder. A tin solder will not do, as the acid will act upon it. This box is the result of much experi ment, and is the best and cheapest vessel that can be devised. Its capacity is just right for making ono-fmirtli of a ton of superphosphate uta time, and it requins n whole carboy of vitriol, so that no frac tional parts ol acid are left to cause trou ble. Ho will uno in the manufacture: 1 carboy oil of vitriol.165 pounds Fine bono charcoal.?1S0 pounds Water. 10 gallons The water is find placed in the trough, und thc acid is added to it, then the \? ... is gradually added, causing a great boil ing with evolution of heat and steam as you will see. You observed in the labo ratory that there were roof windows that could be opened for lotting out the steam ; these aro necessary, it takes about au hour for the reaction to become com plete, and thou it will soon dry and be free from moisture. It needs no grind ing-it is ready for the field as .soon in cool. .Specimens of each lot as made, her?, ara tnkea to the analytical labora tory and analyzed to uhcertain how per fect has been thc reaction. Y'ou hare visited thc laboratory, up stairs at the cud of thu building. This is necessary for tiio chemist, ns it is there that all Ins results aro worked out, but it is not need ed by you. You will need a cheap room with good ventilation for tho manufac ture, and thc simple implements you seo hero are all that are necessary. In order that you may understand the nature of tho materials ami compounds wo preparo, I will now proceed to state tho chemical constitution of bones, and what changes bone structure* undergo when subjected to chemical treatment. Tho bony framework of men and animals is essentially alike, and tho molecules of which they aro composed como from the foods consumed. Hie bonos which hold up the muscles and integuments of our animals, come from hay, grain and green forage, &c. It is necessary for cows to procuro a much larger amount of bono material than they need for tho repair of osseous wnsto in thuir bodies, for the composition of milk calla for u large amount of tho phosphates. When you learn that in about avery 30 gallons of milk there is one pound of tribosic phos tdiate of limo, or bone material, you will mvc Homo idea of tho importance of this HtibsUince in the food of cows. The bones of the infant, fed on milk, come from this principle, and hence wo learn thc medium through which human or animal structures are built up. Permit mc to remark in passing, that it must be obvious to you that an animal in milk like a cow, cannot yield excrement of high value. .Most of tho rich material obtained from tho pasture, or from any form of food, goes to tho milk, und heneo little is left ot valri? to return to thc soil. We often hear farmers say they keen cows and HCU milk so as to maintain the fertility of the farm. This is absurd, on tho principle that you cannot cat your pudding and have it too. A cow in milk requires about 80 H.s. of bone material a year, and consequent ly a herd of 25 cows will carry oil' from our pastures and tho barn a ton of bono materials each year, it is apparent that this process ot exhaustion cannot con tinuo for a very long period without ren dering our fields sterile. We must re turn to them thc bone material they have lost,-we must, in othor words, feed our hungry niants upon tho soluble phos phato of lime, and thus givo to them re newed vigor; nnd they in turn will yield tho same back to uur animals, and from them our own bodies will bo nourished. Plauts cannot assimilate bono in itsordi nary condition ; it must bc rendered sol ublo in water before it can enter plant structure, .".nd how this is accomplished it is important to understand. Phos phoric acid, the clement in bono which plants require and which, therefore, bo comes what wc call a fertilizer, is not the only kind needed to romler our fields productive, it is Ono Ol tUC turee i:icnt essentials of plant food, for Ibero aro but three that wo need trouble ourselves par ticularly about. The others are nitrogen and potash. It is proper to remark here that tho great bulk of all vegetable struct urescomes from the air, nnd is, therefore, furnished abundantly and gratuitously; what concerns us directly is tho matter of furnishing proper supplies of phos Shoric acid, nitrogch and potash to our elds and crops, and it is our business to learn how te obtain, prepare and apply theso substances. Now, first, let us consider phosphoric acid, wc at-lt is, and how wo aro to fit it for plant nutrition. I shall uso in tho oxporimeuta thia afternoon what is khowrv ns bonu charcoal, for tho purposo of developing or setting freo phosphoric acid, And here it is in tho vowel bofore you. It is, as you see, a black granular substance, resembling coarse black cand. This substance ls simply burnt bones, bones charred, or changed into animal charcoal by heat. Tho animal portion, or tho gluten, is carbonised and too bono ?truc-turo destroyed. It is a substance largely employed by sugar refiners to de colorize syrftps, an J alter it has served their purpose lt is sold to makers of fer tilisers to be changed into super-pho* phcie. What is the meaning of this word, BO often brought to the attention of farmer* ? Super rrieaua above, over or higher. When prefixed to tho word phos phate, or phosphate of limo, it means that lime is overcharged with phosphoric acid. In lids vessel I liave a fine while powder in mass a* you Ree; it is pure bono powder. Now, this is composed of lime and phosphoric acid : ii is a phos phate, but not a ftfojer-phosphate of linn-, because ii holds three parts of lime ami only one of acid. If it was like the pow der ill this vessel I bave in my band, it would hold only ono pari or equivalent of lime, with tho same ol'acid, and then it would be ?wner-phosphutc. J lld mo is ti substance thc nature of which y>u verv wcjl understand, I""- "f phosphoric acid yoe know ICM. I can ?how you herc u poi tho table t ! ? ? mosi interesting acid in two forais ; in the phial I have what is known as gtarinl phosphoric acid, li rc embie- ?ec, and heneo its name--a very beautiful ?uh. ?stance, hurd, tr.i??parcnt, and intensely sour. i:i this phial we have il in tho form of a clear colorios liquor, about us dense as syrup. Thia is prepared from i tin jet black stipcr-phosphate you . . upon the table. Phosphoric acid i.j ..ti indispensable constituent of plants; no*, a plant exists which luis i* not, How it happened to become necessary i'i plant*, this wonderful acid, wed ? ti"', know, In hom-- ii exist? locked lip ino.t firmly. I'.vcry mplecule <.;. little; particle it ju the tnt brace of thieu molecules or litmus of lime, arid they hold i" so tenacioiidy, thnt we cannot malic ?I avaihtblu for plants unless wc proceed li violently tear thc mol?cules asund 'r and dim the lime into new combinations. This wo accom plish l?y tho aid pf strung sulphuric acid, oil of vitriol. Now, let its ilndcr'di'.iid (his matter, -o that wh-'U Mr. Davis mixes thnt liery liquid, that cai buy of vitriol, with lliosu two barrels of bono charcoal, wc shall know just what happens. Vitriol, you say, will burn our clothing, our lle.di, and <u il will, ?nd vi '. we ?ir.- goin;j lo pour it on to th it I uno, and in one hour not au ounce of the vitriol ?ill exist as Mich. Thc black liquid will -". tin-, au I hoi!, nutt bot steam wi!! ri-e, and in one hour you eau put your h.md into thc riia-n, and batidle il as tull can sugar. What ht comej of the vitriol ! I will lejl you. Thc houe i? l?oiiipos?d, as we have -aid, of th rev equivalent^ of lime timi one of phosphoric acid. Now, I; vitriol has a strong liking l'or lime, or ii seizes hold of it whenever it ?an reach it, and !>. coin?s locked up in its embrace, and . jifi'tfc <./ Hmc. is formed. I'lds is the t*y p siiin, or plaster willi which, you ar? well acquainted. The whol? oi' that ton gal lons of acid is lo h< e. locked up with tho linn* in t li ? . barrels (il hone, and it will ilHappear in ils new combination completely, and now you ask, wh it be comes of ihc pho.iphitrie acid? Well, thal is H pertinent question. As soon as the vitriol Kcizea thc lime, thephonphorii: acid is set frito as ii HI re, bul a Lind ol' VaCUIIUI cxi-ts; (he t o I n ! i ! ?oil ut'', lt! ac; ? is an unnatural one, and hence it asso .dates itself with nu amount of water suf ficient lo replace thc h-t lime. Thc vitriol will si i/o hut two of tho three itoius of limo, and sn the phosphoric tcitl is left in the fono of what chemists lesignatu a mono-calcic phosphate: that is, it hold- mie ?quivalent ol' lime and [wo of waler, mid now it has become ??/? ul,I,-, Wc have prepared a yat full of m/i'-r ?i/toa/ih tte, and that ii compost d of phosphoric acid soluble in water, lime, ind gypsum ; hy far thc l.irg?.-t propor ion nf thc hull: is gypsum. It has been my endeavor lo avoid the i>o of tcchiiii al tenus, thu true language >( chemistry, in order lo render every itatcmeut intelligible lo you. 1 will ii >w .'enture to put upon lite black boan) some liagrams, ni table*, which I hopo will nuke very plain the reactions or changes vhich bimes undergo in manufacturing lUperphospbale. There are three forms il phosphate ol lime : that i.s. limo i > ichi by phosphoric acid in three propor ions, and in naming thsin I must use ho chemical terms. Your attention is ailed to the illustration upon tho black loanl : Trl-calclc I'I." j Iel!' IU-i'iilclc riie-phato Mniio-catelo I'li.ispliale.

Iii this diagram we have a clear illus tration of what I have endeavored to nate tn you.

If he took linc ground raw ?one, nc would reach tho same result *o far as chemical action ia concernid, but lie would have a pasty mass, very di!li mlt to dry. Ii to- look the Charleston iiowdcrcd phosphatic rock', he would baye a dry ami manug.thle powder after the reaction is over, .'hcrciora, you can not well act upon raw hones either line ur in small nils satisfactorily, but you ?au upon bone char, or tho rocks of thc [.marleston marl bed?. Now, yon ask, If this superphosphate will remain soluble as it is fur a long lime? I answer, probably not all of it. The mono-basic phosphate has u len iency to go back, <>r revert, as ibo change is sometimes termed, und this means that it will to some extent, that is, the phos phoric acid, lake up another equivalent if lime in thc compound and thus be come bUbanephosphate. I regard this as i not unfavorable change, for the reason that it is more slowly soluble in tho soi!, il is nut so quickly available, and there fore is more enduring in its action upon crotts. lt is not certain hut that we shall timi it better to convert all of our phos phates into the bi-banic form, rather than into tho wonthbnti?, as that (brm of acid may he too strong to ho assimilated by plants. We do not yet know precisely in what condition the acid is taken up; wo certainly know it inuit bc soluble in water, however." LABOR STATISTICS.-The tenth annual report of thc Massachusetts Hu reno of Statistics of Labor contains sumo very interesting data in regard to some much discussed subjects. There bas been a great deal of wild stutcmcnt in regard to the number of unemployed workingmen, and the Bureau made special efforts to collect information on this point. A can vass waa made of all thc cities, and a circular of inquiry was sent to the asses sors of every town. Ausweis wero re ceived from all but fifty-one towns, rep resenting a population of only 77,459; out of a total ot" 1,051.012, and producing only $13,290,000 worth of goods ont of a ioial pf $592,331,962, and f5.G89,983 worth of agricultural products of a total of 141,621,799; By tho reports received it appeared that there were 21,812 unem ployed laborers of which 8,570 were skilled and 18,252 unskilled. Tho lt) cities showell 12,135 unemployed and tho 325 towns 9,t>77 unemployed. During thc last campaign in Massachusetts it was frequently dcelnred thnt ibero were from 200,000 to 300,000 out of work in that State, and at least 3,000,000 in the United States, but investigation shows that the statement is absurdly extravagant. The subject of convict labor which has attrac ted so much attention is discussed nt great length in tho report. It appears that the total number of State convicts in the United Slates in 1S78 was only 29,197, and of these, 13,186 wero under contract or employed in mechanical in dustries, and it is shown that th? products of prison labor are njily about que-fifth ! of sono per cent, of the manufacture! ol the United States, certainly too small a ! quantity to a lil ct tho pay ot free laborers.

Ilrazcl who (arius ubi ut twelve miles below Columbia, in lUchlntid County, has sol an example lo nil who are in the habit of thinking and teaching that farming does not pay. Last year he ran three ploughs, lending about eighty-live acres, and he made Kufficieiit provisions to keep his family a year, and a consul' rabie quantity to sell, both of grain and bacon. Iii-, farm yielded him tun bales of cotton, aboii: ?ev ' n h H in Ired bushel* of corn and penn, ami any quantity of rough food for stock, such * fodder, peavines, Su\, besides a good many chula-, liol meas ured, also, about l">o bushels of potatoes.

He attributes his success to the facj that he mid lin two ?ons did their own ploughing, worked early and late, or as he hus expressed i;. thoy "were al work when the whippoor wills hollered in tho morning and when the whippoorwill-, hollered in the even ing," ami finally they abstained from intoxicating liquor.

Tiie man or woman whom excessive caution hold.? back from striking thc an vil w illi an earnest endeavor, is pour a.id cowardly ol' purpose.
