In 1890 the Massachusetts Experiment Station began investigations with different phosphates applied in equal money value, and in his report for 1900 the director states that the raw rock phosphate ranks above the acid phosphate both as an average for the entire period and as an average between 1895 and 1900, during which time the land to which no phosphorus was applied produced only 55 per cent as much as where raw phosphate was used a result worth every farmer's consideration.

She took the glass, tipped it up and drained every drop of its contents. "By George," said he, "you took a good dose." "Oh, I'm used to drinking phosphates; but never heard of it as an antidote for seasickness before. Have you had a drink of it?" "Oh, yes; I've had two drinks since I left the wharf."

A noted European chemist, Dr. Leduc, has produced what he calls "osmotic growths," from purely unorganized mineral matter growths in form like seaweed and polyps and corals and trees. His seeds are fragments of calcium chloride, and his soil is a solution of the alkaline carbonates, phosphates, or silicates.

"Good fellows," said Dufresnoy. "They will slit your throat for a you." The surface phosphates having already become exhausted, the mineral is now pursued into the dim recesses of the earth.
