"The western slope of Palestine is

Mr. Cory said. "The onfiguration

I was therefore not surprised to

"The soil of western Palestine is

WHAT INSPECTION
OF MEAT mm

Great Quantity is Consumed

Country
CONDEMNED MEAT
IS NEVER WANTED
But it Is Used for Making
Other Things That Are |
Very Useful.
People in the United States ar<?
eating meat <it the rate of half '+

they consume over fifteen billion
pounds. Two-thirds of this is inspect
ed by Bureau of Animal Industry employees,
while the remainder should
be inspcted by state or municipal
men, but, unfortunately, this is true
only to a small extent.
Modern meat inspection in this
country dates from 1906. Congress
had made but timid inspection laws.
About that time President Roosevelt
became interested in newspaper reports
about activities in "packing
I town," and he sent two committees to
Chicago to investigate. Their reports
convinced him that the thing needed
in the law was teeth. Alter much
sensational argument, everyone seemed
to agree, so congress put on the
books the stringent act of 190fi. r*

the protection of the public against
unwholesome food as well sa for the

of foreign countries against our meat
exports.
Must Bear Stamp.
Fundamentally the law is based or.
the principle of interstate transportation.
It says that no meat can

the can must have been truthfully

must have been light, clean and

Making Fertilizers by Extracting
Phosphoric Acid From
Rocks
PHOSPHATE ROCK
MOSTLY FROM FLA.
Has Solved Problem of World
Wide Interest to Farmers
and Business Men.
i
1
What may prove to he a revolution- j
ary development in the fertilizer industry
of the world has been reached!
by the Bureau of Soils, United States)
Deparement of Agriculture, Which
has just solved the problem of ex-1
tracting phosphoric acid from phos- J
phate rock by heating mixtures of i
this mineral, sand and coke to a|
smelting temperature in a fuel-fed i
furnace. The new process has been
worked out on an approximate commercial
basis at the department's ex- j
peri mental station at Arlington, Va. i
Comes Largely From Florida.
The phosphate used for fertilizer j
in the United States comes largely i
form the deposits of rock in Florida.
There arc al o large deposits in Tennessee
and a number of beds in South
| Carolina, where the rock was first
I exploited for this purpose. The established
method for producing soluble
phosphate has consisted in treating
the rock with sulphuric acid. In
practice, a quantity of sulphuric equal
to the quantity of rock is used, and
the resulting product, which is known
as acid phosphate, contains only onehalf
the percentage of phosphoric
acid contained in the rock from which
it was derived. Commercial acid
phosphate, for instance, made from a
32 per cent rock contains only lfi per
cent of nho. nhorir firid Tim ol<ihnv- I
ate washing and screening process
now used in preparing the phosphate
rock for treatment with sulphuric
acid often results in the loss of two j
thirds of the rock, and it is with a
view of saving this immense of waste
of phosphate that the ne\y process
was evolved.
The United States Department of
Agriculture has been experimenting
for some time along the lines of freeing
the phosphoric acid by means of
a high degree of heat. It was the
firsts to adopt the Cottrell precipitator
to the collection of phosphoric
acid, the apparatus having been previously
devised by Dr. Cottrell to
abate the smoke nuisance and to recover
sulphuric acid from smelting
operations. The first work was done
in an electric furnace which was
thought to be required to generate
the high degree of heat necessary,
about 1,G00 degrees C. or 2,900 degrees
F. At this temperature rock,
sand and coke were reduced to a molten
slag which was dipped off at in
tervais, the phosphoric acid escaping
in the form of. fumes which were afterwards
collected in a liquid or solid
form.
It soon became evident that this
process would be prohibitively expensive
with an electric furnace, except
in localities where electric power
could be obtained at a very low cost,
about $25 per housepower per year,
and the department therefore turned
its attention to the possibilities of
using crude oil, the cheapest fuel obtainable
in the vicinity of the large
phosphate rock deposits of Florida.
The efforts have recently met with
success, and figures kept on the experimental
runs at Arlington indicate
that phosphoric acid can be extracted
more cheaply in an oil-burning furnace
than by the old sulphuric-acid
process.
One problem which department
scientists have worked out is that
of keeping the fuel in direct contact
with the rock material until the reaction
is well started. For this purpose,
and for convenience in handling,
the material is briqueted with coke
and sand. Briqueting keeps the coke
fuel within the mass and retains it
until the reaction is well started.
Sand or silica is necessary to bring
about the chemical reactions and this
sand is largely present as an impurity
in the Florida uhosnhato do
posits, together with a clayey ingredient
which acts as an excellent binder
in making the briquettes. Thus
the very impurities which make rock
objectionable under the old process
are turned into an asset.
Economics Effected.
The practical value of the new development
is indicated by the fact
that in the experimental runs at Arlington
the department chemists were
rihle to recover a 64 per cent phosphoric
acid, as against the 10 per
cent product ordinarily obtained by
the sulphuric acid process. By passing
ammonia gas into this phosphoric
acid, solid ammonium phosphate, a
very concentrated material containing
two valuable fertilizer ingredients,
results. This material can
stand heavy transportation and handling
charges. It is also practicable
to mix the phosphoric acid with phosphate.
rock in such proportions as to
give a product containing r>0 per cent
of soluble phosphoric acid. This proI

uukb m ai11111ur in us properties to
ordinary 1T> per cent acid phos phate,
is convenient to handle, and may be
used by an intelligent farmer who has
the technical knowledge to reduce the
quantity placed upon the soil, and to
guard against direct contact with the
seed. It also will permit a material
saving in freight to central plants
where the product may be diluted or
mixed with other ingredients for
shorter hauls. The difference between
a 50 per cent product and a 10
per cent product means an immense
saving in the freight charges, and the
1 release of large quantities of rolling
stock and vessel tonnage now engaged
in the transportation of phosphate
and phosphate rock.
While the actual cost of the new :
process in a large industrial plant is
difficult to estimate with accuracy in !
the work thus far done, 'even on a
small scale, it was found that the fuel
consumption was only about 15 per
cent of the value of the product, while
with the sulphuric acid process the
cost of the acid used seldom runs below
22 per ccnt. This factor, together
with the reduction of treight charges,
justifies the assumption that the new
process will be of utmost importance
to the fertilizer industry and to the
farmers who are compelled to u^e a
constantly increasing amount of commercial
fertilizer.

JUST AN OLI) FRIEND

At frequent intervals in recent
years promoters have resorted to ex

this crop: "Mr. Farmer. $8 invested
in American coffee beans and planted
on one acre will bring- you in foir
months $100."
I Turns Out to He an "Old Friend."
The American coffee bean is our
old friend, the jack bean, says the
department. Ever so often it is exploited
as a wonderful new crop.
Long ago it was advertised as "ParI
son bean" and "Wonder bean." In
1013 one advertiser called it Waiaka.
| or Giant Pod Stock bean, claming it
would yield <100 bushels per acre. Last
spring it came out as the South
American coffee bean, with the information
that it would yield 300 tc
GOO bushels per acre. This fall it appears
as the American coffee bean,
and the seed is offered at $25 a bushel.
The extravagance of this price is
offset by the promise that each acre
of the bean will yield in four months
time a crop worth $400
The jack bean is at most a crop of
very small value. \t will yield a fairly
large crop of green herbage, but
this is so extremly bitter that it is
very difficult to get animals to eat
it, either green or as hay. Possibly
it may be better as silage. The seed
crop varies from 20 to 35 bushels per
acre. The beans are not relished by
animals, and cattle do not make much

mined by the work of the Mississippi
Agricultural Experiment Station. The
bean is to a .slight extent used as
food by Mexicans and others but the
flavor is very strong and in some
cases serious digestive disturbances
have been reported. The seeds contain
much grease, a substance used in
medicine, but a few tons of jack
beans supply the world's annual demand
for this substance.
All the evidence available indicates
that the jack bean is not likely to become
of much value to American agriculture.

That is an increase of more than half

for next year $1,100,000 would be
spent for commercial attaches abroad
