Synopsis

Excerpt from Physiological Bread: A Contribution to the Simplification of Therapeutics; Translated From the German

This explains why our soil, after so many years of plowing and harvesting, at last refused its yield. But about this time it was discovered that the excrements Of men and animals, when brought upon the fields, produced renewed growth. These excrements are nothing else than remnants Of the food consumed which were not made use of; i. E., not transformed into new lymph and blood, and not being made use Of they were chemically decomposed and decayed in the alimentary canal and were excreted as superfluous and useless. Ever since stable manure has been the cry, and from thence our miseries commenced, for stable manure containing consider able quantities of ammoniacal substances is absolutely unable to produce wholesome crops for men and animals, because that which gives a vigorous consistency to our limbs and organs consists of the firm earthy parts and not of ammonia vapor.
