Prof. Bert- rand, a biologichl chemist, in the Pas teur institute, in Paris, read a paper at the International Congress of Ap shied Chenustry, lately held in New York, upon the part played in agri very small quantities of chemicals, dwelling especially upon the necessity for the presence of mangan ese * in 80s Most soils, however, the elements that contain enough are required ' In small quantity, and the farmer only does not trouble hjmsei about them but in fact does not know hat they arp requisite. But there are three elements that the plant does not, mn general, get trom the aw and which readily exhausted from [hese clements ave phosphor potassiam and nitrogen. Artificial hizers contain one or more of these sol. ef jeonstituents, and by their apphestion; {a soil may be kept fertile.

It the potash in feldspar could be cheaply changed into a form which would serve as plant food, there would be a revolution in the potash industry. Thie was (he phase of the question, which for a couple oi hours engaged the attention of a hundred or more of the chemists, gatherad at the congress. Most inter est centred in a provess very swmiar by which cement 3&8 made. substances, which may therefore be used ag fertihzers. The source of the nitrate chiefly used ps Uhili saltpeire, which is manly sedi nitrate. Over two mathon tons are used every vear It comes from the rainless regions of Uhile. H the chmpte were wet, it would be washed awaV. The beds of Chile saltpetre are not inexhaygstible and when it is remems- bored that all the materials neces- sary for making nitric acid exist in practically unlimited quantities, iw the air, and that nitric acid, acting on limestone, makes a nitrate suit. able for the soil, one may naturally ask why the far off country of Chils should provide a fertiliser for the materials of which are all about ua Fortunately, it is not an easy mat- ler to make nitrile acid from the sir, though the required slements are so piantiful. A little nitric acid is made during every thunderstorm: if the elements could eas'ly be made to unite, 50 mach would be formed in a thunderstorm as to prove fatal to all lite. The method used for arti ficially producing nitric acid is » modification of the thunderstorm: It has; been long known that nitric acid can be produced from the air by electric discharges, but it is only re- cently that any commercial proces: has been developed. A Norwegian chemist, Samuel Eyde, has worked it out, and in the American Museum of Natural History at New York, on a very hot day, he described to a crowded audience of interested lis- teners the details of his process and the progress of the industry. Nor way is a country eapecially suited for the industry because of the cheapness of alectricity, which is produced by water power. In 1903 a plant was installed with twenty- five horse power and four employes; in 1911 there were four or five larg- er works using 200.000 horsepower and with nearly two thousand cm- ployes, and the snd ix not yet. Thus do the rain-washed hills of Norway ass'st the acid he'ghts of Chile in providing for plant growth. The very cheap water power in Norway makes the process possible, and perhaps Canada may sometime compete with Norway, either by use »f the same process, or of another Lased on the same principle. At the meeting in New York a vote of thanks to the lecturer was moved by Mr. Bradley, the inventor of 2 process that was tried at Niagara, but was not cerried on becauss of the expense of electric power, Arother form in which nitrogen applied 10 the land is as a com- pound of ammonia, which s itself composed of aitrogen and hydrogen The smell of ammonia is familiar in spirit of hartshorn, the sulphate ot ammonia which is used on the field: ia without smell. Ammonia liquor has long been obtained from gas works; more lately some has been provided by iron blast furnaces and as at Syduey, Cape Breton, from ovens ased for the manufacture of coke. The world's produetion of ammonium sulphate has grown from 543,000 tons in 1902 to 1. 181,000 in 1911. 5 Dr. H. A. Bernathen of the Ba- dische An'lin und Soda Fabrik in Ludwigshafen-on-Rhine, gave an ad- dress, illustrated by experiments, upon the artificial manufacture of ammonia from its elements, Thore seemed to be even greater difficulty in causing hydrogen and nitrogen to combine to form ammon- nia than in causing the formation +f nitric acid from the air. It is doubtful whether electric discharges produce ammonia at all; certainly the amount produced ia very minute. me experiments seemed to Indi- cate that at high temperature, some ammonia was produced by the un- ion of the elements, but Turther work threw some doubt upon the validity of the experiments. Some- times combinations which of thsny- uelves take place very slowly, are made to take place rapidly by the presence of some substance which does not appear to change during the operation. Such a substance is called a catalyser. Experiments in- dicated that no catalyser is capable of producing more than a trace of smmonia. Even high pressure wa: tried with very little sueccezs. Thus, in 1908, in Dr. Bernsthen's words, "The production seemed to have be. come more than ever a dream, of which the realization appeared to be be quite beyond the bounds of possi- bility, 80 that there was every rea- son why the scientist should turn his back on so-unfraitful a field." | But the investigajor Haber was not; daunted. He applied to the Ba-| dische Anilin und Soda Febrik and! carried on his researches. He found | other catalysers; he used very high | pressures oven up to two hundred] and fifty atmospheres; for & fow of gas in such a way that} the smmonia should be absorbed by water, and removed as soon as it was formed, and the remaining gases again submitted to the action eaus- ing combination. A number of men. belonging to the staff. of the Fabrik, which includes considerable more than a hundred university graduates, whose time i= dovoted to research, worked upon the nroblem. Never before had gates een worked with under such = great reseure, combined with high tem- erature. Most metals would, at hat high temperature, not stand sreasure, snd the material used was wot divulged by Dr. Bernsthen.
