TO THE EDITOR OF r IMIi: FARMERS
GAZETTE.
Dear Sir :—Flavin*’ read a piece in 1 lie*
Gazette headed “ Profit of Manure,” three
or four weeks ago, shewing the value ot
Manure for making cotton, I have conclu
ded to give you another instance. But I
am a very poor scholar and not accustomed
t * write trthe I’uhlic. Ifyoti publish tins
please correct the errors of composition.—
’The instance to which I refer is that of a
planter iri the Pee Dee country, with whose i
manner of planting I first became ac<]ttain- i
ted in 183 1. He planted that year 155 a- j
eres, and manured 25 or 30. lie gathered
*O.OOO pounds of seed cotton. He deter
mined to make more manure than he hith
erto had done, and for that purpose took 3 :
old negroes of little value for any thing j
else. But his manure being all put on !
his corn land, lie made in 1835, only 65,-
000 pounds of seed cotton. The number of j
acres planted was 147. In 1830 he plant
ed 135 acres in cotton (20 less than in 18-
31) manured 80 acres, and made 82,000
pounds of seed cotton, (2000 more than in
183 1.) The same year he manured 25 a-!
eres of corn land. In 1837 he planted in j
cotton 170 acres, of which he manured on
]y 33 acres, putting his manure on the corn j
land, lb* made 03,000 pounds of seed I
cotton. On the 33 acres manured, he made
03,000 pounds ofseed cotton. On the 33
acres manured, lie made 29,080 pounds.—
Eluding his manured land planted in cot
ton do so well in 1837, he determined in
1838 to plant no more than lie could ma
nure. He that year manured and planted
125 acres ; from which he gathered 100,-
452 pounds of seed cotton. In 1839 he
planted 125 acres, manured nearly all,
and made 106,597 pounds ofseed cotton. —
‘Phc present year (18 10) he planted 123 a- j
eres; manured the whole. Product 91,-
491 pound seed cotton. Notwithstanding ;
that the past has been a very unfavorable!
season for cotton, part of a field which had !
been planted in cotton three years in sue- j
cession, produced 1000 pounds to the acre I
A.\ Eve Witness.
Dec. 26, 1840.
Wo thank “An Eye Witness’’ for his j
communication. Cannot others follow the j
example ? Facts like those stated by him j
must exert an influence for good upon old
fashioned farmers and planters, who cannot
■spare time to make manure. Why do such j;
men spare time to hoe their cotton or thin
it! Because, they reply, they thereby j
make more cotton than they could by cm
ploying the same labor at the same time in j
auy other way. Well, if they can make j
more cotton by bestowing part of their la- i
bor upon making anil spreading manure j
than by employing it in any other way, why
not do so ? Editor.
