The first steps in the American Crusade, inaugurated by the International Reform Bureau with the active aid of the Misses Mary and Margaret W. Leitch, who had served efficiently as missionaries in Ceylon, was to get the subject of liquors and opium as hindrances to Missions into the program of the Ecumenical Conference, in whose first draft this subject, strangely enough, did not appear. The National Temperance Society also urged the intro duction of this theme. The matter having been thus pressed upon the Program Committee, Dr. Theodore L. Cuyler and afterwards Dr. John G. Paton, of the New Hebrides, were appointed to present the subject in the Conference, and a Supplementary Meeting was also held in Calvary Baptist Church, New York, in which the platform participants were Dr. Paton and Miss Margaret W. Leitch, already named; Hon. Samuel B. Capen, President of the American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions; Dr. Arthur T. Pierson, editor of The Missionary Review; Principal C. Harford Battersby, Honorary Secretary of the Native Races Committee of Great Britain; Revs. O. H. and T. P. Gulick, American Board Missionaries, and Dr. Wilbur F. Crafts. This meeting gave strong impetus to the new movement, especially by the circulation of the alxve-named speeches in print, which passed the hundred-thousand mark. If there be anyone who has never thought of foreign missions as a branch of one of the great sciences about which everyone claiming to be educated should have full and accurate information--not mere rumors of prejudiced critics--surely such a one has need to be reminded that in the fields of discovery, of lang. . .

We speak again of the cotton plant which is a sun plant, and loves a hot, not too wet, soil. So far from these chlorides doing harm by their presence, the general belief is that they are the main agents of good, owing to their property of holding moisture. A little of it in the row will cause the soil next to the plants to hold moisture in such a degree as to make it look greasy by contrast. So say the planters. Many attribute the whole good effect of Kainite to this property. Mr. W. G. Lewis says: My experience with Kainite during two dry years (1880-81) was very favorable; this year being very wet no manure showed any sign whatever. Dr. E. S. Broadwey, Lenoir county, says: Kainite is an absorbent of moisture, which to the growing plant is more beneficial than rain water. This is about the tenor of the reports on this point. 3. Manner of applying Kainite and the manures to be used with it. Kainite has been applied to cotton, we find, in every conceivable manner and in almost every conceivable combination, but most frequently directly in the furrow, with cotton seed, acid phosphate, ammoniated superphosphate or stable manure, one or all. Not infrequently it has been used entirely alone. So applied it did well in special cases. For example, on soils, good in all other respects, but upon which cotton would invariably be destroyed by rust without it, it has been very often used alone with most satisfactory results. So also on the black stiff lands of the east, or reclaimed swamp lands, containing much vegetable matter, it has done remarkably well. (Mr. Lang, Pitt county. ) On the other hand, it has disappo. . .

Deductions. --Upon the consideration that combustible matters generally are burned, including the volatile combustible products of the distillation of coal and wood, it follows that other It may be objected that sulphuric anhydride formed in the shaft would be broken up in volatilizing into dioxide, and oxygen. This may be true in regard to the major part; but that a considerable evolution of the stronger gas takes place is certain. fuels than coke and charcoal may be used in this form of smelting. Even the most volatile gases may probably be made use of, such, for example, as ordinary illuminating gas, natural gas, etc. Following this train of reasoning I was led to experiment with wood, which eventually I used, not as a mere makeshift, but regularly and successfully in practical work. The innovation evoked the criticisms of certain metallurgical acquaintances, who, not understanding the drift of my work, and perhaps imagining that their own experience and knowledge covered the whole field, were disposed to sneer at what they considered a pitiable makeshift. The advantages in its use were threefold: first, obviating the waste by inferior oxidation, which advantage is inherent in pyritic smelting; second, the employment of a fuel cheaper per unit of calorific power; third, a useful mechanical effect in rendering the charge less dense and thereby facilitating the passage of the blast. In order not to mislead the reader I will add that I have not been able to replace more than half the coke with wood. My experiments in the use of coal in the pyritic furnace have been but slight and inconclusive, nor am I aware of others of a more thorough nature; but from analogy there should be important economies in the use of p. . .
