Some interesting investigations
bearing on the artificial production
of diamonds have recently been car-
ried on by Sir William Crookes. For
tho formation of carbon crystals in
tho form of diamonds intense heat
and considerable pressure are esscn-
tial, and this, Sir William Crook's
found, was produced in the course of
some experiments on high explosive
performed by Sir Frederick Aber
and Sir Andrew Nobel. In these teiss
gunpowder and cordite were tired in
closed steel cylinders under such con- I
ditions that pressures as great. as 95,-
tons to the square inch and tenipera-;
tures as high as 5400 degrees abso-
lute were obtained. Removing tho c
residues from the cylinders, tho vari- Y
ous substances were carefully tested P
and examined, and certain minute
'crystals were found which were un- P
doubtedly diamonds. This was dem- c
onstrated by drying the residue and' c
fusing it at red heat in potassium r
bifluoride, to which nitre was added, o
during the process of fusion. The re-lt
sidue thus obtained was then washed:?
and heated in sulphuric acid, after•
which tho largest crystalline par-Ic
titles were separated and submitted'
to examination by crystallographers
who confirm the opinion of the chem-
ists as to their being diamonds.
'These results corroborate the exper-
iments of Moissan, which tended to
show that pressure and heat were
essential to diarnond formation.

YIELD OF Ml'kAn01VS.
In the United Kingdom very e':,se
et -entree has lately been g!tan to
rho subject of increasing the yield
of grass or hay on meadow laird,
writes Mr. J. li. Quail, of Liverpool,England. Experiments with a view
to increasing the yield, have teen
carried out at agricultural colleges
and by individual farmers, and some
of the results aro now obtaivaLle.
One series of experiments has been
carried out at the fares maintained
by tho Lancashire county council,
England.at Hutton, near Preston, England.
The experiments have extended over
a period of four years, and tho re-
sults aro probably the latest and
some of the most reliable obtainable
in tho United Kingdom. They were
cdnducted under the direction of Mr.
John Bayne, M. A. 11, Se., principal
of agriculture at the county council
school, assisted by Mr. Edward Por-
te!,13. C. Sc.; N. 1). A., lecturer in
agi'cul turn.
in their report these authorities
first allude to the different methods
of manuring meadow land, practises!
in the United Kingdom. A very
common method, they say, is to ap-
tly farmyard manure year after
,ear. Another method, probably
quite as common, is to apply farm-
yard manure at intervals and artiii-
al manures in the intervening
ears. A less common and less po-
ttier method is to apply artificial
mhnures every year. The land ex-
erimrnted on had a surface soil,
onsisting of a black loan' of even
haracter, about 10 inches deep, and
estine on a clay subsoil. Analyses
1 the soil showed that nearly one-
hird of it was carbonate of lime.
ho immures used were common
farmyard manure, nitrate of soda
ontaining 95 per cent. of pure ni-
rate, sulphate of ammonia, con-
aining 95 per cent. of pure sulphate,
uporphosphntc, containing 35 per
ent. of soluble phosphate, and kal-
it, contttining 12# per cent of pot-
s,. equal to 23 per rent. of sul-
hate of potash. The prices of these
)enures in England were: farmyard,
7 cents per ton; nitrate of soda,
-13.83 per ton; superphosphate,
16.44; sulphate of ammonia. $58.-

',ears, the farmyard manure was ap-
lied in January, the superphosphate
fid the kainft In March, and the
itrate of soda arid the, sulphate of

sults showed that where plenty
