April  29,  1916. 
It  should  ho  realized,  moreover,  that  there 
is  some  danger  from  fire  wherever  the 
mulch  has  to  cover  the  ground  so  com¬ 
pletely  ns  would  be  necessary  in  the  cast? 
of  mature  peach  trees.  We  believe  there¬ 
fore  that  most  growers  should  continue 
to  use  the  generally  approved  practice  of 
tillage  for  the  great  majority  of  tiieir 
peach  plantations.  If  anyone  feels,  how¬ 
ever.  that  mulching  would  lie  desirable 
and  feasible  under  his  conditions,  he 
should  first  try  it  out  on  a  small  but  typi¬ 
cal  portion  of  the  orchard  before  extend¬ 
ing  it  to  any  large  areas. 
In  such  cases,  a  good  way  to  make  the 
change  and  get.  the  mulch  started  is  to 
grow  a  good  cover  crop  of  rye  and  vetch 
or  their  equivalent.  In  the  following 
Spring  keep  this  cover  crop  mowed  imme¬ 
diately  around  the  trees,  and  allow  it  to 
grow  in  the  interspaces.  Then  cut  the 
latter  about  as  the  rye  is  beginning  to 
blossom,  allow  it  to  dry.  and  then  rake 
it  up  around  the  trees.  It  should  not  be 
brought  too  close  to  the  trunks,  however, 
and  it  should  also  be  accompanied  by 
some  efficient  protection  against  mice,  as 
they  will  even  attack  trees  when  they  get 
a  good  chance. 
In  the  later  handling  of  the  inter¬ 
spaces.  it  is  generally  advisable  to  get 
some  kind  of  a  perennial  leguminous  crop 
growing  there,  if  convenient  to  do  so.  and 
then  cut  it  ns  often  as  necessary  and  add 
it  to  the  mulch.  Alfalfa  or  possibly  Al- 
sike,  should  be  useful  for  this.  It  is  also 
probable  that.  Hairy  vetch  might  he  of 
some  service  in  this  way,  if  enough  of  it 
is  allowed  to  go  to  seed  each  time  before 
cutting.  In  general,  however,  most  of 
the  mulch  on  peaches  is  likely  to  have  to 
come  from  outside  sources,  especially  as 
t lie  trees  near  maturity. 
I’enii.  State  College,  j.  p.  stewabt. 
R.  N.-Y. — It  is  understood  that  a 
■‘mulch'’  means  any  organic  covering  like 
manure,  straw,  leaves  or  “anything  that 
will  rot.”  left  on  the  soil  under  the  trees 
to  decay. 
Phosphates:  Their  Origin  and  Use 
Pabt  X. 
The  plan  of  making  superphosphates  of 
phosphate  rock  is  of  quite  recent  origin. 
As  we  have  seen,  crushed  bones  were  first 
used.  For  grain  and  many  other  farm 
crops  they  gave  fair  satisfaction,  but 
finally  they  were  voted  too  slow,  as  too 
much  time  was  required  to  make  them 
fully  available  in  the  soil  with  the  cobr.se 
grinding  then  employed.  There  came  a 
time  when  more  active,  phosphates  were 
needed,  both  for  quick -growing  crops  and 
for  new  methods  of  growing  the  staple 
crops  in  a  rotation.  So  Liebig,  tbe  great 
German  chemist,  worked  out  the  plan  of 
using  sulphuric  acid  on  the  bones.  As  we 
have  seen,  this  dissolved  phosphate  be¬ 
came  known  as  superphosphate  or  supe¬ 
rior  phosphate,  for  this  soluble  phosphate 
has  always  been  considered  superior  to 
the  crude  or  slowly  available  material. 
Liebig  seems  to  have  had  the  first  idea 
of  the  modern  plan  of  feeding  a  crop 
somewhat  as  we  feed  ourselves  or  our 
animals — that  is,  on  frequent  meals  of 
available  food  rather  than  <*n  larger  quan¬ 
tities  of  the  cruder  food  which  does  not 
become  available  until  it  has  remained 
for  months  or  years  in  the  soil.  When 
wc  get  at  the  heart  of  this  hot  discussion 
over  the  use  of  raw  phosphate  rock  or  su¬ 
perphosphate,  we.  shall  find  that  Hie  argu¬ 
ment  divides  over  this  question  of  whether 
it  pays  best  to  give  frequent  applications 
of  available  phosphorus  or  large  applica¬ 
tion  of  slower  rock. 
For  some  years  bones  alone  seem  to 
have  been  used  in  making  superphos¬ 
phates.  There  bring  an  increased  de¬ 
mand  guanos  were  used  to  some  extent, 
and  the  demand  still  further  increasing 
the  rock  or  petrified  bone  was  used.  In 
older  to  make  this  rock  available  it  was 
necessary  to  invent  and  perfect  very  pow¬ 
erful  grinding  mills  and  machinery  for 
mixing  and  holding  the  acid  and  phos¬ 
phate  dust-  As  we  have  seen,  when 
ground  bone  first  came  into  use  the  mills 
or  stampers  then  used  did  well  to  crush 
the  bones  into  pieces  half  as  large  as  yonr 
thumb.  In  order  to  make  the  ground  rock 
ready  for  the  acid  it  must  be  ground  to 
dust  While  the  acid  might  profitably 
dissolve  a  piece  of  bone  of  thumb  size  it 
could  not  handle  pieces  of  rock  of  that 
size  to  advantage.  So  year  by  year 
grinding  machinery  was  improved  for 
crushing  or  smashing  the  rock  to  powder. 
It  would  not  pay  us  here  to  try  to 
give  all  the  details  of  superphosphate 
making,  or  the  chemistry  of  it.  Sul¬ 
phuric  acid  is  “a  liquid  with  a  horrible 
bite."  as  a  drop  on  your  band  would 
quickly  prove.  It  does  to  the  phosphate 
rock  or  petrified  bone  something  of  what 
the  pigeon  does  to  her  food  before  she 
feeds  it  to  her  young.  The  rock  is 
crushed  to  a  fine  powder  and  mixed  with 
water  to  make  a  soft  or  rather  liquid 
paste.  This  is  run  into  a  “mixer”  with 
about  equal  parts  of  sulphuric  acid, 
mixed  or  churned  and  then  dumped  out 
into  a  "den”  where  a  fierce  heat  is  gen¬ 
erated.  Enough  of  this  process  is  noted 
here  to  show  farmers  that  they  could  not 
expect  to  do  a  good  job  of  making  super¬ 
phosphate  at  home — in  tbe  barnyard. 
Some  of  them  think  they  can  easily  mix 
the  acid  and  bones  and  thus  save  money. 
It  is  a  job  requiring  suitable  machinery 
and  skill,  and  the  average  farmer  should 
not  undertake  it.  After  coming  out  of 
the  fierce  and  heated  chemistry  of  the 
“den”  the  superphosphate  is  ground  and 
dried  and  made  ready  for  use.  As  we 
have  seen,  that,  hot  struggle  in  the  “den" 
pulls  two  parts  of  lime  away  from  the  in¬ 
soluble  phosphorus,  and  leaves  one  part — 
or  a  soluble  form. 
For  many  years  we  have  been  taught 
the  value  of  the  superphosphate,  and  it 
was  the  general  conviction  that  while  the 
process  was  expensive  it  paid,  in  order  to 
obtain  this  available  form.  In  recent 
years  a  new  theory  or  plan  has  been  pro¬ 
posed.  which  is  to  use  the  raw  phosphate 
and  let  the  slow  processes  of  nature  do 
for  nothing  what  the  expensive  acid  phos¬ 
phate  does  in  a  few7  minutes.  Let  us  look 
into  this  next. 
0\e  afternoon  late  in  the  Fall  Uncle 
Josh  was  driving  slowly  toward  the  town, 
when  an  acquaintance  excitedly  rushed 
out  to  the  road  and  hailed  him.  “Say 
Josh.”  he  exclaimed  in  a  palpitating 
voice,  “have  ye  heard  the  news 7”  "No, 
don’t  kalkevlate  I  have,”  responded  Uncle 
Josh,  sociably  stopping  his  team.  "What 
kind  <>’  news  is  it?”  “Jim  Smith  com¬ 
mitted  suicide,”  answered  the  other. 
“Hung  himself  from  a  beam  in  the  barn.” 
"Is  that  so?”  thought  fully  rejoined  Unde 
Josh.  “Wonder  if  he  gut  all  of  his  corn 
husked  ?" — Philadelphia  Telegram.
