Artificial manures; their chemical selection and scientific application to agriculture . 14 — ?\ AIR INLET 8 OUTLET FOR GASES FIG. 2. LECT. XVI. ELECTRICAL FIXATION OF NITROGEN 281 of carrying out this idea upon satisfactory financial termswere soon found to be practically insuperable. The experiments which have been carried out by Kowalskiand Moscicki at Fribourg appear to be much more promising,and the tests to which their process has been subjected havein many respects given most satisfactory results. The form of their latest furnace is shown in Figs. 1 and 2,and it consists of a jacketed cylinder, 5, which contains a tubu-lar cooling apparatus arranged in such a manner that water oroil maybe circulated in the jacket and round the tubes of thecooling apparatus. An electric current at about 2,000 voltspasses from the rounded end of the electrode, 7, to the flatupper surface of the cooling apparatus, 5, in the field of astrong magnet coil, 19, which results in the flame revolvingrapidly and spreading over the upper surface of 5 in such away that this surface appears to the eye to be covered with acontinuous sheet o
