It is too little to call Man a little World; Except God, Man is a
diminutive to nothing. Man consists of more pieces, more parts,
than the world; than the world doeth, nay than the world is. And
if those pieces were extended, and stretched out in Man, as they
are in the world, Man would be the Gyant, and the World the
Dwarfe, the World but the Map, and the Man the World.

References to Kant
Translations of Kant are my own, but key terms accord with standard
English editions. I underline text to signify my own emphasis, and note it
parenthetically. I use bold typeface to express Kant’s emphasis (where he
would have used Sperrdruck), which I generally leave unremarked. I retain
Kant’s italics in quotations, though only to indicate foreign words, not to
express emphasis.
References to Kant’s writings follow standard practice with one refine-
ment: the addition of line numbers. I provide volume, page, and line
numbers from the Akademie Ausgabe of Kant’s writings (Kant –),
except for the Critique of Pure Reason, where I cite the A () and
B () pagination. The A/B page number is followed, after a period, by
the line numbers of the Meiner Philosophische Bibliothek edition (Kant
). These line numbers track the pagination of the Meiner volume, not
the pagination of the A, B, or Akademie editions. To locate cited passages,
first find the A/B page in the Meiner edition and then look for cited line
numbers within that A/B page.
Because an A/B page may extend across a page break in the Meiner
edition, line numbers may sometimes appear to go backward. Thus, A/
Bf.– refers to the sentence, “Sie hat also [. . .] gemeinen
Verstandes.” This sentence begins on line of page of the Meiner
edition and ends on line of page . For the same reason, some early
portions of B have higher line numbers than later ones, since they
appear before the page break: B.– precedes B.–.
When no line numbers are specified, I mean to refer to an extended
discussion in that area of the text. I do this only when I take my
interpretation to be uncontroversial.

The purpose of placing sand at the bottom of each lysimeter is to offer a porous
stratum in which free water may collect and rise to the level of the perforated
copper tube, which would prevent any further rise by conveying the surplus
above into the vault as drainage water. The soil above the tube will therefore be
constantly drained and the sand below constantly saturated, unless the water be
drawn up by the capillary action of the soil as the result of evaporation from the
surface.
By means of a proper arrangement within the vault, of a kind of Mariotte’s
bottle, the water may be caused to flow back through the drainage tube into the
lysimeter to take the place of that lost by evaporation, and thus maintain the
level of free water just below the drainage tube. The water flowing back to the
lysimeter, and the amount of drainage water, are carefully measured by a system
of graduated tubes.
The lysimeters thus constructed represent tile-drained land; in one case the
tile being three feet below the surface and in the other six feet below. The
drainage waters collected in the receiving bottles can be measured and analyzed
from time to time, as occasion may require, to determine the amount of plant
food which is removed.
179. Improved Method of Deherain.[120]—Deherain’s earlier experiments
were made in pots containing about sixty kilos of soil. These vases serve very well
for some kinds of plants, but there are other kinds which do not grow at all
normally when their roots are imprisoned. For instance, in pots, even of the
largest size, wheat is always poor, beets irregular, maize never acquires its full
development, and the conclusions which can be drawn from the experiments can
not be predicated of the action of the plant under conditions entirely normal.
It is necessary therefore to carry on the work in an entirely different way, and
to construct boxes so large as to make the conditions of growth entirely normal.
The arrangement of these boxes is shown in Fig. 24.
They are placed in a large trench, two meters wide, one meter deep, and forty
meters long. There are twenty boxes in this trench, the upper surface of each
containing four square meters area. The boxes are one meter deep, and therefore
can contain four cubic meters of soil. The sides and bottoms of the boxes are
made of iron lattice work, covered with a cement which renders them impervious
to water.
The bottom inclines from the sides towards the middle, and from the back to
the front, thus forming a gutter which permits of the easy collection of the
drainage. The drainage water is conveyed, by means of a pipe and a funnel, into a
demijohn placed in the ditch in front of the apparatus, as shown in the figure.
These receptacles stand in niches under the front of the cases, and are separated
by the brick foundations. Access to them is gained by means of the inclined plane
shown in the figure, and this plane permits the demijohns in which the drainage
water is collected, to be removed with a wheelbarrow for the purpose of
weighing. This apparatus is especially suitable for a study of the distribution of
the nitrogen to the crop, the soil and the drainage waters. The loss in drainage
waters of potash and phosphoric acid is insignificant in comparison with the loss
in nitrogen.
The cases having been placed in position they are filled with the natural soil,
which is taken to the depth of one meter, in such a way that the relative positions
of the soil and subsoil are not changed.
While the soil is transferring to the cases it is carefully sampled in order to
have a portion representing accurately the composition of both the soil and
subsoil. These samples are subjected to analysis and the quantities of nitrogen,
phosphoric acid, and potash contained therein carefully noted.
One or two cases should be left without crop or fertilizer to determine the
relations of the soil and subsoil to the rain-fall. Three or four cases should be
kept free of vegetation and receive treatment with different fertilizer, in order to
determine the influences of these on the deportment of the soil to rain-fall. The
rest of the cases should be seeded with plants representing the predominant field
culture of the locality, and some of them should be fertilized with the usual
manures used in farm culture.
