('din cultures grown in soils containing copper as silicate (chryso- colla), from none to 1. per cent Cu. tics of Copper Compounds," that precipitated copper carbonate is soluble to the extent of parts in 1,000,000 of water, while copper sulphide is soluble to the extent of parts of copper in 1,000,000 of water. It is most probable, also, that the finely divided condition of the precipitated carbonate is more favorable to solution, and also to reaction with the acids of plant roots. (2) Corn is seen to be distinctly more sensitive to the car- bonate of copper than either beans or squash. With corn, toxic effects appear with per cent of copper in the soil, while with beans and squash these toxic effects do not appear until :5;") per cent of copper in the soil is reached.
