Rust In Cotton.
, tu
The cry of the blighting and destructive
rfccu of the rust on the cotton crop, is com
ae to us from all sections of the country, and
believed that itadamagea, this year, will
be eqosl to that of the caterpillar or the boll
worm These are tre the three formidable
enemies to the growing cotton weed and iu
fruit. . ,
Plsnters were, in slavery times, content to
ent down and clear up the primeval foresta,
!rf)oght at low prices, and open fresh fields
.bounding in vegetable monld, potash, and
theisltsoffertility, and to appoint overaeera
to drive negroes and mules, to make large
crops j«d wear out the land, and then to
more westward, in quest of a new theatre for
•itnilar operations. The planters knew as
little ts the overseer—the overseer a little
more than the negro about eorrtct husbandry
and culture, and the negro not much more
tk.n the mule. But all combined, and doing
work on virgin soil, they made good crops,
developed immense resources, and exported
more consumable commodities to Europe and
1 other countries, than all the other sections of
the Union.
Rut a great revolution has intervened, and
we are in the beginning of a new order of
things. The free negro bna not, aince the
w.r, and will not, in the future, at least in
oor times, clear any forests, reclaim swamp
lands, ami open up new fields for cnlture.
We have therefore to “accept the situation,”
work our cleared lands, enter upon an im
proved culture, strive for progress, and make
the moat we can, with the materials before
at The question of tbe rust ia of great im
portance and magnitude. We propose to
consider it in threo points of view—its an
tiqulty, its nature and tbe remedies to check
it
1. Its AKTiqctTT—As fir back as authen
tic history reaches, we have the accounts of
tbe ravages of tbe rust. The Old Bible is tbe
most ancient of all histories. Moses ami the
prophets bear ample testimony to its preva
lence in Eastern Asia, in that remote age
snd country. It is enumerated as one of the
iesiruments which an offended Deity em
ployed to chastise the disobedient Israelites
It was always denounced in threats, as well
it in actual punishments. The great terror
held over that people, and often inflicted, io
the Innguage ot tbe inspired writers, was
“pestilence, blasting, RC8T, locusts, caterpil
lars and famine.”
Still later, the Roman and Grecian author
ities spenk of it as destructive to the crops
of their respective countries in Southern Eu
rope. In the meridian Maze of Roman Lit
erature, knowledge and power, Virgil, the
most learned of their poets in agricultural
nutters, alludes to the Rust, with whnt was
deemed a partial remedy for ita damages to
•mall grain:
“ Mox ct frnmentls labor additna, nt mala culmoa,
Ewet Hubtgn, acgnisqne horrent In arris
Cudnua."— Oeorgiea, Lib. 1,150.
Here ho states that “labor” (culture) was
resorted to, to prevent the “ Robigo" (rail)
from damag'ng their crops.
Horace, his contemporary, barely apeaka of
it as the " sterilia Rubigo,” the blasting rust
Horace knew the teinee, whether from the
Masrir, the Falernian, or Formian bills, but
particularly the “Vetcrum Caecnhutn” of
Mmernas, whilst he knew but litlle, and
cared less for agriculture.
Rot the prevalence of ru9t was so destruc
tive that tbo Romans, at an early period, in
stituted feasts to the Deity Robigns, com
posed of prayers, sacrifices and obscenities,
to avert tho calamities. And still later: in
England and on tho continent the rust an
nually continues to inflict ita damages upon
tltrir cereal crops—wheat, rye, oats and
barley.
In America the rust not only affects the
small grain, which it generally destroys in
tho Gulf States, but also our chief crop for
revenue—cotton. In the year 1850 the rust
extended over all the Southern States, in
volving the grass ami trees of the forests to
such an extent that the deer and cattle, feed
ing on the wild woodland pastures, died by
countless thousands from a disease called the
black tongue.
2. Its" Character — Wiiat is it t—Bo
tanists and scientific men have placed the vis
ible phenomena beyond all debate. When
in “lull blast,” it is a parasitic plant of the
Fungus Family. Tho Fungi cover the stalks
of cereals, and, like the small-pox, become
confluent. These minute plants arc the low
est order of vegetable growth, and onty vc-
cetate in a cellulnr state, like mushrooms.—
Up-sjjirting(to coin a word) upon the sicklv
or decomposing leaves of the cotton 9talk,
their roots ramify and consume the sap and
food in its upward tendency, which, other
wise, would give vitality and development
to the cotton stalk, leaves, and fruit. Hence,
when the rust sets up in cotton, the growth
of the plant is stopped, the leavea die and
drop off, nod all farther fruiting ceases.
This damage is sometimes partial, varying
in the extent of its damage, as it is checked
or increased by the season and temperatures.
These fungi, or small clustering plants, of s
, yellow or redish hue, invisible as such to the
ft* nsked eye, yet under tbe microscope are seen
and kaown to have roots and seed. Hence
Botanists say that the rust is vegetable
fungus.
Now all that is claimed, as already stated,
is fully conceded to be true, so far as the facts
»re concerned; but facts are not truths, but
ouly the elements ot truths. We must go
beyond these facts and find out the cause
which produces the fungus growth.
Aa the yellow akin and the yellow eyes arc
not the yellow Jaundice, but only the effect
and ctidene* of the diseaser as umbilicated
pustules are not the small-pox, but only the
effect and evidence of it; as the black vomit
>» not the yellow fever, but only the effect
and evidence of it; and so on u ad infinitum
rnddy yellow Fnngus on cotton leaves is not
the mat, but only the effects and evidence of
lt * In the vegetable, as in the animal econo
m H wc submit, that all contagious diseases
are cauaed by animalcule. This ia. not re
ceived by Botanists, nor even thought of, or
, entertained, at any time—bat they only look
F" ,0 *be effects and not to the cause of the dis
use—and call those visible evidences of the
disease—rust.
Now this ia not a verbal criticism, bnt a
w*lity—and it should be clearly understood.
That animalcule are the cause of rust, can
wc think, be sustained, from tbe analogies of
all contagious diseases, as well as from posi
tive proof!
Some "years ago, I conducted some experi
ments, based upon the idea that animalcules
were destroying the leaves of the cotton
plant, and I successfully stopped the Rust.
Knowing that sulphur smoke would kill
any and all Insects, I fumigated the rust in a
cotton patch, with powdered sulphur mixed
With the dead, rotted heart ot a dead pine
tree, crumbled into a loDg handled frving-
pan. I, dragged the smoning pan ou the
ground, up on one side anel down the ether,
immediately under the stalks of the infected
rows, thus sending dense volumes of sulphur
smoke through ail the cotton branches, and
leaves The rc=ult was. the aDimalcula- were
Ml killed, the cauu of the disease stopped,
and in the fall of the year the eye could not
discover where the mat previously appeared,
but a full and new crop of leaves and cotton
followed.
And this view ia supported by the analogy
of unman contagious diseases. The doctors
tr, the latter, like the botanists in the former
case, confound the effect and the cause—a
radical error in all such reasoning.
The “causa cansans.”—that without which
tbedUcase could Dot occur nor exist—that
which produced it, is quite a different thing
from the developed effect. Cholera, yellow
* ever » frnall-por, measles, the itch, io fact all
contagious diseases are cansed by different
species of animalcnlaj. One species attacks
the stomach and causes yellow fever; an
other the intestines, and causes cholera; an
other the external skin and the mucous mem
brane, and the type of disease is small-pox;
and so on, for all contagious malsdies; they
are mere abnormal action of tissues, caused
by the attacks of different species of animal-
culm, upon different parts of the system, and
producing those different effects which doc
tors call diseases.
A learned physician does not thrust medi
cine into tho human system to destroy a par
ticular disease,as a boy shoots shot from a gun
to kill birds, but bo simply combats symp
toms, well knowing that abnormal action re
moved, normal action will be restored,which
islicsltb.
These animalculm, whether created to prey
upon vegetables or animals, increase and re
produce tbeir species by myriads, producing
epidemics. Blight, mildew, dry rot, sweet
ergot, rust are all produced by animalcule!.
The rust generally appears in small patches
on sour and sandy soils, but seldom on rich
alluvial lands where clay predominates, and
the plants grow off in healthy vigor. Tbe
sour lands vitiate the juices which feed the
plants and produce sickly leaves; and sandy
soil ia subject to variable temperatures from
rains and tbe cooling effects of evaporation,
which produce tbe same effect; and these
sickly leaves invite tbeanimalculte, and it ia
in such localities that the rust starts.
The nnimalcuhe, perforating tho leaves,
induce decomposition, which sends forth the
fungus, as decomposing beds of manure and
vegetable matter send forth mush rooms.—
God baa impressed laws upon all soils, under
certain conditions,by which different growths
spontaneously come forth, without tbe inven-
lion of seed.
These views are submitted because I be
lieve them to be true, well knowing that they
are not orthodox, at present among Botanists
and the Medical Faculty. But the time will
come when they will bo acknowledged, aud
my purpose is merely to direct attention to
tiie subject, that future investigation may
discover the truth, so that knowing the true
causes of rust, we may tbe more understand-
inglv discover tbo remedies to prevent ita
visitation, or to check it in ita ravages.
8. Tns Remedies for the Rust.—When
we contemplate how little progress has been
mnde in tbe medical world, with all ita
school* and colleges for the advancement of
science, in the knowledge of the causes and
in the cure of contagious diseases; when we
see eminent men devoting tbeir lives to these
studies aud investigations for hundreds of
years, and confess that the field of knowledge
is not only barren of satisfactory results, but
that darknesa broods around and upon it;
shall we be surprised that planters, confess
edly deriders of science and progress, should
know to little about the diseases of those
growths, which clothe and feed them, and
add so much to our national wealth t
What progress has been made after years
of study, investigation and practic*, in tbe
cure of cholera and the yellow fever j They
■till bafilc medical skill, whilst even their
causes are in dispute. And can the planters
expect to prevent or control the rust in cotton,
without much study, investigation and prac
tice I Wo planters are, beyond all question,
the most ignorant of our vocation oi all classes
of society. This should not be. The culture
of the earth is a noble and honorable work;
it will be more so when directed by knowl
edge. Wc can oven now dimly see the dawn
of a brighter day. We have a great work of
study and practice before u«. of ditching, sub-
soiling, resting land, and the compounding
of manures, so as to keep down the rust.
As already stated, Virgil, the representa
tive intellect of tbe Romans, in agricultural
matters, recommended ploughing, to subdne
the rust in small grain, but reglectcd to give
any directions about it In England, it has
been observed that wheat, growing near the
sea shore, and even a few miles inland, is not
subject to'the rust clearly owing to the effect
of salt vapor upon the soil, and tbo growing
grain. This suggested tbe experiments of
sprinkling brine on rusted wheat, which was
followed with the most favorable results. Tbe
9alt combining with the Fungi, which are
mostly water, absorbs and dries them op, and
strikes down into the tender roots, and kills
them outright, jThrec pecks of salt to one
barrel of water would make a proper brine.
As the rust io cotton is the same as that in
wheat, only produced by different species of
animalcnla', or if you refuse this theory, theu,
only producing different species of fungi, the
remedy is well worth a trial when the rust
firec appears.
Salt, ploughed in gardens in the fall, is
said, on the best authority, to exterminate
the cut-worm ; and why not try it on those
parts of fields where the rust usually makes
itsfirst appearance f Besides,salt so ploughed
in is a valuable manure, being composed
principally of soda, one of the best of fertil
izers, and chlorine gas.
The Sulphur Famigation for rust I deem
an invaluable remedy, if properly applied.
I have already described its application io
previous remarks. To conquer success, no
half way work will do. We arc just starting
out now with free vagabond labor. But the
future is before us. and knowledge and
wealth will command labor, and wo must
acquire knowledge, and it will bestow wealth.
It is believed that in due time wc can and
will, by persistent observations, experiments,
and science, understand the causes of rust
and the remedies, and thus add, annually,
millions to onr wealth, comfort and happi
ness. Rcsticus.

somewhat increase the demand for small oys

loads ready for shipment, and if the weather
remains cool, business will commence early
