Pagina 69 - God made the earth and the heavens, and every plant of the field before it was in the earth, and every herb of the field before it grew : for the Lord God had not caused it to rain upon the earth, and there was not a man to till, the ground. But there went up a mist from the earth, and watered the whole face of the ground.
Pagina 246 - A soil to be fertile for cultivated plants, must, as a primary condition, contain in sufficient quantity the nutritive substances required by those plants. But chemical analysis, which determines this relation, gives but rarely a correct standard by which to measure the fertility of different soils, because the nutritive substances therein contained, to be really available and effective, must have a certain form and condition, which analysis reveals but imperfectly.
