Liebig the Boy and the School of Booby
A historical anecdote recalls young Justus von Liebig labeled a booby at school where verbal memory was valued. A master’s derisive question prompted Liebig to vow to become a chemist, a prediction later mirrored by a fellow pupil who excelled as a composer at the Imperial Opera House in Vienna. The piece condemns a rigid teaching method and praises progress toward a more rational system.

Advice on soil types and drainage from Mr. Phinney and B G Boswazz. Prepare rich composts with swamp muck lime charcoal and salt. Plantings should be twice deep and roots spread. Apply lime and charcoal around trunks, slit bark for growth, and lime during bloom to boost yield. Regular lime and compost follow-ups revive old orchards.
