Improvement in Agriculture.
To the Editor of the *South Omnlryman
Your favor of the 13tli inst. is received,
, :n rl in compliance with your suggestion, I
will endeavor as briefly as possible to an
swer the query you have put to me, in re
gard to the rise of laud in Maryland, occa
sioned by an improved state of Agricul
ture.
My connection for 25 years, with the
pioneer agricultural periodical of this coun
try, gave me opportunities to note the pas
sing wants'of the day, in connection with
the improvements going on, and most fully
developed during that period, and weic
of life, and
1 feel that I liay without vanity, say, that
every movement which has been made
tending to theinaeaFe in the value of real
estate, In the middle Southern States, par
ticularly, owes Vs success more to my ef
forts, and encouragement, than to any oth
er living human *ing.
I well rem-embA when I first became
connected with •th^“Faitner,” the great
deterioration Which had taken place in the
value of landed-estates in -otu owu ami ad
jacent States. Our lands had become so
far impoverished, that they no longer yiel
ded a support for their occupants, and I
believe, if a search was to be instituted, to
determine the fact, it could be proved, that
in some of the bounties of cur State, with-
jde of its great -commercial
the seat of the .National
abandoned with
tiro future, and the
Rcher lands of the West,
isolated case or two, but
serves me aright, there were
To pitch-an extent was this
deterioration carried, that many of the
most influential trlen of Md., considered it a
• j.eless task, for our state to continue to
pay the interest on its public debt, from
the supposed inability of the tax payers to
meet their liabilities to the curamon wealth;
and the drenltlful alternative was mooted,
in half a day’s
mart, and also,

ng in the public estima-

ate advocated measures
n alternative—but fortu
nately for the ln^ior and glory of our gal
lant old State, (wqiosc sons were partakers
in the battles of the revolution—fought in
all sections of the revolted-colonies—North
and South)—better consels prevailed, and
the efforts of persons were elicited to j Guano had, comparatively' speakin
quite a furor in our midst; and to such an
extent was this carried duri.g one. season,
when.the supply was short that the hous
es of the Agents of the Peruvian Govern
ment in this city, were literally beset by-
men, women, and children, to sucli an ex
tent that barricades had to be erected, and
the doors locked, to keep the multitudes
from overt* helming them in their counting
rooms. I shall never forget those scenes.
If a famine had been threatened our city
and state, it scarcely could have produced
more intense anx’ftety than was manifested
by thousands of the farmers—their wives,
their commission merchants, their friends,
all of whose services were brought into
requisition, to use their influence to pro
cure some of the precious Guano, and thou
sands of promises were exacted, (and bro
ken often enough, too) from the Agents,
for portions of the cargoes which were yet,
to arrive. No one but those conversant
with the scene, can form an idea of the
scenes enacted on the occasion. Men liv
ing hundreds of miles distant, often writing
to their agents and others to purchase Gu
ano for them, felt impelled to visit the city
to see in person why 7 their supplies were
not, forwarded. Some spent weeks here,
off and on, hoping to get even the smallest
quantity ; others suffered their wives to
mix among the crowd which was besieging
the Agents quarters, hoping that the well
known gallantry of the Spanish race was
not extinct, and that their appeals would
not he resisted— and they were not cither!
You will form some adequate idea, from
these remarks, of the high appreciation in
which this fertilizer was held in this and
the neighboring States, the first year after
its effects had become well established—
the results having been introduced to the
agricultural public mainly through my
Journal. Many well authenticated facts
could he produced, to prove that lands
were purchased, and by the application of
Peruvian Guano, the cost of cultivation,
with the price of the Guano, and of the
land itself, were all paid for by the pro
ceeds of a single crop to which it hail
been applied ! This it was, that caused
it to be so vostcnsively required, and the'
Peruvian agents had not been able to meet
the demand, their supply 7 for tlie wheat
seeding having early 7 become exhausted,
before one half of those desirous of apply
ing it to their crops had obtained their
supplies.
Although warned continually against
relying solely 7 on the use of this fertilizer :
and urged to follow up its application with
putrescent and phosphatic manures, too
tew, alas! heeded the admonition. The
work-
save her homfcyedire a disgrace as that
with which sK was threatened. About
this period^*! Itvas prompted to make a
change in some of the features of my pe
riodical, whichfeave more time and oppor
tunity for refle&impf and observation and
•consultation. of well known and
successful aapicilturists in our own and
neighboring Slat's, was solicited and ob
tained, and the subject of manures, and the
renovation of our worn cut lands, was
made a prominent point in the discussions
■which took place in the columns of my
Jov®aak I date this, as the commencement
of the ncir era in the agriculturc of our
State. It has accomplished for Maryland
and Virginia, to a great extent—what the
introduction of the turnip culture and the
application of bone earth had done for the
agriculture of England .and Scotland,
which commenced under the auspices of
the Iloyal Agricultural Society, about the
conimencempnt of the present century.
The time would fail me to do justice to the
noble spiritsivho came forward to the res
cue of our glod old State in this critical
period of its mistory, whose contributions

the circulation of which was largely in
creased, thereby, aud the beneficial effects
were being daily experienced. In the
course of these discussions, the great end
was attained, for which I originally aimed,
viz : The discovery of the means by
ed miracles aud no remonstrances could
he received against trusting solely to its
effects. It was found that on the poorest,
most impoverished soils, from which all
fertility had been apparently exhausted;
it acted most profitably ; land that would
scarcely reproduce the seed wheat sown
on it, by the application of 250 lbs. of Gu
ano, would yield 12,15, and in many in
stances 20 bushels of wheat and upwards, a
decidedly 7 greater quantity than most of
the best quality land in the.State would
produce, without its use. No wonder then,
such reliance was placed upon Guano. On
the improved lands, or such, rather, as had
not been exhausted by the cultivation of
Tobacco, and severe cropping with the
cereals without a return of putrescent man
ures to the land, the result did not show
the same profits in its use. It would pay
the increased expense of its application,
but very 7 little beyond that point—so that
in the Western section of our State, where
greater attention had been paid to the
rearing of slock, and the making and sav
ing of manure, the use of Guano never ob
tained but a limited foothold. The lands,
however, it is proper to add, in this sec
tion, where naturally very good, and of a
limestone formation. It was soon found,
however,that when the Guano was used
from year to year, without the application
of other manures to secure a permanent
improvement of the soils, the effects
were less and less beneficial—arid, al
though many still persevere in its
use alone, some peculiarity in their
soil rendering it profitable, still the
great mass of the farmers who continue to
apply it are now incorporating with it the
phosphatic Guanoes, in order to secure
a more permanent improvement to their
soils—and I am glad to perceive from
communications in your journal from Da
vid Dickson, Esq., of Sparta, that lie has
adopted the same course, and recommends
it to those who -are following his example
in the use ol Guanoes. I hope and trust
they will not lose sight of his admonition
—he has evidently studied the subject
thoroughly 7 , and with great liberality he
has tested it at the risk of heavy 7 outlays,
and his experience is now at the command
of his fellow citizens. I rejoice to see by
an interesting communication in your pa
per and which I had in type for the July
No. of my Real Estate Register, that his
investments have paid him with good in
terest, estimating as he docs, his outlay for
Guanoes, and other such manures, to yield
him a clear gain of 100 per cent! Such
men are an honor to the State, and should
bn more highly prized than a host ol
ephemeral politicians of the day.
Before closing this rambling epistle, al
ready extended "far beyond what I inten
first crop, with interest, on these old
fields.
■‘There may be ingredients in some soils
which will ncutralize^the effects of guano,
and exist in such small proportions that
no chemicgl analysis can detect them. I
have never met with soils of this character
—repeated trials must be the only means
for ascertaining such cases. With regard
to its durability, much has been said, and
many speculations upon the subject—my
experience in the use of it has not been in
small doses of a few hundred pounds, but
as large as 25 to 2S tons in one year, aud
always with marked effect, and entire sat-
islaction. If you except lime, bone-dust
and ashes, no manures that 1 hare tried will
show any lasting benefits without they be fol
lowed up with further improvement. No
one will question, I presume, that if an
application or guano will raise the pro
duction of worn-out lands from 5 to 20
bushels of wheat per acre, and ripen it to
maturity, if the clover will take root and
flourish—and if the straw from this 20
bushels of wheat, he converted into manure
and put back upon the fields or even
spread over the clover in the winter, that
the benefit from the clover and material
thus applied, must be felt to a very great
extent, even though the guano may evap
orate when you cut off the first crop. Clov
er will grow from such an application, and
if plastered will improve, and improve the
soil. Any failure to derive a permanent
benefit from an application of any of these
concentrated manures, however volatile
they may he, must- be charged to want of
proper use of the additional material, placed
in your hands through (heir agency.
“Poudrettc.—I have found a good ma
nure, (when unadulterated) sown with
grass seeds, and rolled in with them,
feix barrels per acre put on this way, on
wheat, where guano has been ploughed
under, will set timothy, orchard grass aud
clover, well.
“JLime, the greatest and most lasting
improver of nearly all soils, and one most
to be depended upon, should always follow
upon all grass lays, the fall after the first
crop has been removed. 100 biub-els per
acre, spread upon the sod, to remain tor
two years, is, in my opinion, the most ju
dicious application of lime. I prefer this
method of applying lime, to the slower,
hut not less certain mode of applying it to
the surface of the old fields, to remain from
three to five years without being cultivat
ed. First, because you hasten your im
provement, which is always gratifying,
and by furnishing the vegetable matter for
the lime to act upon, you can increase the
quantity applied to advantage, and get a
a more speedy returned for your outlay.”
I send you, herewith, several of the
prize essays published by me when I con
ducted the Farmer, from which you may
probably extract much useful information
for your readers—and it will give me much
pleasure at any time, to be able to add iny
mite to the advancement of a profession,
to benefit which, I have devoted the
vigor of my life.

means were found within reach, but they
w ere to a very 7 limited extent, with many
lac facilities of accumulating manure, by
preserving every kind of offal made upon the
farm, and gathering it from all sources of
supply, which are more or less within the
reach of every farm—of gathering from
fbe headlands of creeks and marshes, of
tlie scrapings of roads and ditches-—in fact
of using all the means which were discern
ible or at command,to increase the manure
heap. Still this was too slow a process
for the go-ahead disposition-of our people,
and were not avoidable in sufficient quan
tities for the extent of their broad fields—
lime the great redeemer of exhausted soils
was within tlie reach of many, but the re
turns of profits were not active enough for
general adoption—few were able to await
its tardy, but certain effects. About this
time, the introduction of Peruvian Guano
was made, and the experiments by our far
mers and planters soon -induced the belief
that the long desired secret was discovered
of the infallible means for the rescue of
our lands from the deplorable condition
to which they had been reduced by un
skilful and destructive management.—
“Eureka,” was ready to be shouted from
' thousands of onr people—“We have found
it ?” was the universal belief, and tlie re
sult was like to have proved that the rem
edy was as bad as tlie disease. My Jour
nal, for years, was presenting tbe subject
to the attention of the farmers of the coun
try, in all its bearings ; experiments were
being made in ail directions, and on all
kinds of crops, aud reported to me for pub
lication—many of these experiments at
first proved failures, for want of a proper
knowledge of using the guano—in most
instances no doubt by those who were too
illiberal to support an Agricultural Jour
nal—but the wonderful effects produced
in the experiments by others, produced

says to which A have alluded, and which I
hope you will find room for, if nothing
more, of what I have-written. It embraces
perhaps the pith of all 1 have s’aid, and
gives you, in a few words, the results of
the experience of the writer, Col. H. Cap-
ron, then of this State, and which have
been fully verified by 7 my subsequent ob
servation and experience of the effects of
the several manures which are alluded to.
After showing the prime importance of sta
ble .and farmyard manure; anil the neces
sity of paying attention to its quality, the
writer adds :
“ The farmer must rely 7 upon liis
own judgment, as to the kind of manure he
shall use in his first essay upon “worn-
out lands”—as -the cost -at procuring the
different manures must vary with every
location.
“Leached or unloached ashes, when
they 7 can he procured and delivered upon
the ground at S11 to $12 per hundred bush
els, 1 have found as prompt in their action
ns any of the concentrated manures, and
more durable. Next to lime or bone-dust
they arc certainly the most lasting in then
effects—from 100 to 150 bushels per acre
should he applied for a drcssiii".
Sugar Making.—An important improve
ment in making sugar, has been discovered
in France, by 7 M. Earlue, by which a great
saving is made in this important aud in
creasing branch of business. The new
principle seems to be, that of extracting
the saccharine matter from the crushed
cane or sorgho, by the process of solution
and under a pressure of air. M. Darlue
says the produce of the grape and beet cau
he doubled, and that of the cane quadru
pled by 7 this process.
By tlie present arrangements, neither all
the juice, nor that which is far more impor
taut, the crystaline sugar contained in the
cane, the Sorgho or any othef plant, cau
be fully obtained.
The sugar cane has ninety per cent, of
soluble substance, only forty-five of which
is secured by the inferior apparatus now
in use ; whilst by the new process and im
proved apparatus, over seventy per cent,
can lie obtained. There is a loss* of at
least twenty per cent, of the juice which
remains with the offal under the pre
sent system, and which contains the host
and most solid part of the crystaline su

A New Method of Preserving Butter.
A jiatent has been granted to W.Clark, of
London, England, for a new method of
preserving butter, which promises to he
valuable. It is as follows:—After churn
ing the butter is worked in usual manner ;
it is then placed between linen cloths, like
any other substance to he pressed, and sub
mitted to severe pressure, which removes
the whey and water. It is then covered
with clean, white paper, which has receiv
ed a coating on both sides with a prepara
tion composed of the white of eggs and salt.
Fifteen grains of salt are allowed to each
egg. The paper is dried aud then heated
before the fire, or with a hot^ron, just be
fore it is applied to tlie butter. It is claim
ed that butter treated in this way will
keep two months without any salt, if plac
ed in a cool cellar. Any 7 ordinary 7 cheese
press, or the presses accompanying the
portable cider mills, now common, will an
swer the purpose. Removing the water
from the butter, alii the application of the
prepared paper, which serves to exclude
the air, will, undt.ub elly resnre a decided
improvement in the keeping qualities of
the butter.

ITogs vs. Dogs.—“What a dog lives up
on will keep a hog.” If any body doubts
tlie truth of the saying, let liirn kill li is
useless dog, and put a pig in tbe pen and
give it tbe dog’s allowance. lie will find
in a few months that be lias a fine, fat
porker, fit to be eaten—a use of the dog
could not be possibly applied to by any
Christian man. There are too manjr. If
they had all been killed a year ago, there
might be 200 lbs. of good fat pork in the
country to balance against every dog to
set aside, which would be no inconsidera
ble item in the present scarcity of supplies.
Dogs arc a nuisance, and should be taxed.
While every farmer keeps his dog, sheep
stand a poor chance to get through the
world, and yield their annual fleeces with
untorn throats. The increase of the dog
popularity accounts for the scarcity of
sheep.—iV. C. Planter.

IRON HOOPS 56TIES,
FOR COTTON BARES.
Price G cents per pound, 25 per cent, less than Rope.
A NY one considering the advantage of Iron over
/ik. Rope ns a material for binding cotton hales, will be
suiprised ihatiz has not been adopted long since. In its
security against Ore there is an overwhelming reason for
its adoption,
The presses in the seaport cities have been the main
cause ofits not being generally adopted ; but now that
objection is removed generally, anti the Orleans Press,
the largest in New Orleans gives it the preference over
rope. Tlie Fasr-tnanti Iron Hoopand Tie is the improve
ment of one of ih.-i proprietors, and is adopted from the
fact, that it is found after long experiment to combine the
greatest merits in simplicity and facility of application of
any one yet made. It is,so prepared as to require no
change for re-compression. Thus obviating the only re
maining difficulty at ihe seaboard cities.
The hoops are sent .of any length, from eight to ten
feet and a guarantee given that neither the ri**s nor
IIoops shall break. And farther that all cotton bound
in them shall be received on the same terms, at the Or
leans Press as rope bound cotton. The weight per bale
is about the same as rope, nut one pound more or less.
To show the opinion shippers have of it. we give the
following, among numerous commendation* we have :
The undersigned, masters of vessels, having‘had
cotton compressed with FassinamTs new Iron Hoops
and Ties, hereby recommend the same. The tpile* be
ing well compressed, and the buttons or hoops, never
breaking when thrown down ir* the ship hold. Or when
