Its use during the past four years for the culture oi COTTON and corn, has given to it a character for standard excellence unsurpassed by genuine Peruvian Guano, and when seasons of drought intervene, it produces a large increase of crops. The price at which Guano is placed is so much below that of Peruvian Guano as to constitute it an object of material importance to Southern agriculture.
