To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Let us take a case similar to what has repeatedly occurred in actual practice. We have a soil which, as the result of long cultivation or from natural deficiencies, is incapable of yielding a remunerative crop of wheat. Its texture is good, it has produced wheat abundantly, and needs nothing but a little of the right kind of manure to restore its power of giving a crop. We put upon it Peiuvian guano at the rate of 300 lbs. per acre, and the harvest is a good one. The entire addition to the soil... is but yxHJootto"* 8 = one hundredth per cent.* The amounts* of phosphoric acid, of alkaline earths, and nitrogen added, are, for each, bat but ffjTcth per cent of the soil taken to the depth of a foot. These quantities are rather minute for even the improved analysis of the .present time to estimate suc- cessfully. Calculations like this show that the chemist cannot discriminate by his analysis between, first, a soil which is unproductive from the temporary exhaustion of some of its available ingredients ; second:, the same soil which is rendered fertile again for a year by the use of 300 lbs.
