Theories Mineral

Cairns-Smith, as the leading proponent of the mineral theory, has also shown interest in both the hydrothermal biogenesis theory (Cairns-Smith, 1992) and the iron-sulphur hypothesis proposed by G. Wachtershauser (see Sect. 7.3).

In the opinion of Liebig, the experiments of Lawes and Gilbert, so far from disproving the mineral theory, afford, cn the contrary, the strictest and most satisfactory proof of its truth. The reader is referred to Liebig s able work for a clear and distinct view of what Is really his mineral theory, and to a paper by the same author in defence of his views, in the seventeenth volume of the. Journal of the English Agricultural Society. 

As bonos furnish only two substances to crops, science as well as experience indicates that they are more likely to be useful when used aa auxiliaries—for example, with farmyard manure, et cetera. At all events, that this is true, when bones are to be used for some ye are, may be deduced from the mineral theory, A striking instance of this fact occurred in Nottinghamshire. The soil was supposed to have become deficient in bone earth, and as the first applications produced very good results, it was supposed that by the constant repetition of a larger quantity increased fertility would follow, Those hopes were disappointed, until it was shown by other experiments that other mineral constituents were necessary. By tho addition of these, the accumulated stores of dormant bone earth immediately began to develop wonderful effects. This is but another instance of the truth of the mineral theory of Liebig.
