Common Kalt-An Anf i-Knsi Jfnimrc*
From the Eufaula .Vries.J
On a former occasion, I suggested common
gait aa one of the remedies against the mat in
cotton. The reasons then assigned were, that,
in England it has been observed for many years
that wheat, growing near salt water and a few
miles inland, is never subject to the rnst, whilst
it prevailed everywhere else on the Island.—
Drawing an inference from these well authenti
cated facts, it was argued that land sown in salt,
in winter would, in ail probability, have a bene
ficial effect against the mst in cotton.
Since making those suggestions, strong evi
dence of their truth has been furnished in that
valuable and able Southern paper, Tbe Macos
Teucobath. We quote from its columns the
testimony of “One of the most successful plan
ters in the South.” He says: “I have used salt
for fifteen yearn or more. I find it essential to
success on all lands like mine, and most of the
cotton lands are like mine. Three hundred
pounds, (G bushels) of salt and two hundred of
land plaster to the acre are almost a total pre
ventative of rust, which is one of the worst ene
mies to cotton the planter has to contend with.
Salt makes cotton bear longer in the season and
stand drought better, it increases the quantity
and improses the quality of the staple, it acts
equally well on corn, oats, and other grain,
toughens wheat straw, and causes less waste
from the heads of wheat breaking off when cut.
I use eight hundred bushels, but many cannot
use it on account of the price.”
The evidence of experience begins to roll np
and truth moving slowly will finally be acknowl
edged. In less than ten years, if the price shall
permit, common salt mixed with plaster and
other. compounds, as an Anti-Rust Manure, will
be as extensively used as guano. Practice and
experiments will have to establish the quantity
to be used and the best mode of its application.
It is known that common salt is present in
every cultivated acre of land in the world, in
greater or less proportions, and enters into
plants as a necessary part of their food, and as
a constituent of their stems, leaves, and fruit.
It abounds more in rich alluvial lands, but less
and less in thin and poor soils. On every plan
tation, the rust generally makes its appearance
in tho same fields and localities. These portions
of land suggest attention and treatment.
In spealting of salt, custom refers onlv to
common salt, but all salts are componnas of
Acids with Earths, Alkalies, and Metallic Ox
ides, and they are vastly nnraerous. Nearly all
these salts feed and nourish plants. Common
salt feeds man, beast, and plants.
Dickson’s compound manure (I quote from
memory) consists of equal parts of common
salt, gypsum, soluble bonedust and Peruvian
guano. Except the guano, and it contains the
salt called phosphate of lime, but principally
valnable for its Ammonia, all the other constitu
ents are salts—gypsum being tho sulphate of
lime and soluble bonedust tho phosphate of
lime, whilst common salt consists of chlorine
and sodium. Tho functions these salts perform
go beyond stimulating tho growth and feeding
the plants; they also ameliorate tho soil, de
compose organic matter and neutralize poison
ous acids.
That common salt is a manure of great value,
when properly applied, is not only attested by
experience, but from the farther iact that chlo
rine and soda are found in most plants, in nearly
all of them on analysis.
Unskilled planters may not, at first, succeed
with its use, and wo Are all unskilled groping in
the dark and studying our horn-book in agricul
ture, but wo must never despair, but progress
every year in knowledge derived from thought
and experience.
Some rich lands may abound in common salt—
and such do not need its application; but
poor soils require all tho salts of tho earth to
enrich thorn.
How does common salt act, and how is its in
fluence wrought on vegetation? It is a deliques
cent salt, it absorbs moisture from the atmos
phere and retains it in the soil, thus keeping it
moist in droughts, equalizes temperatures, and
acts generally as an ameliorator of noxious
acids and the soil—preparing and supplying food
for plants.
The poisonous acids, and tho variable temper
atures of soil, in its natural state, alternating
from rains and droughts, by damaging the steady
and healthy development of tho cotton, invite
the animalculto, which are the cause of rust, as
well as of all epidemics in man and plants—de
nominated contagions.
Now if the two preceding propositions are true,
and I think both science and experience will
■ustain them, then is common salt not only a
good manure, applied on lands deficient in it,
but also an anti-rust manure. When put on land
and plowed under, common salt, like all the oth
er thousand salts of tho earth, goes to work. It
is no idler, it does not lie still and do nothing,
but its two elements, chlorine gas and soda are
active partners underground. All material sub
stances, but more particularly their constituent
parts, are ever active and striving to move and
form new combinations. The “Vis Inertino” of
philosophers will do as a relative idea, but if
meant as a fact, it is contradicted by every atom
in the universe.
Therefore, all theso acids, alkalies, earths and
their compounds, exert an universal and never
ending effort to make new combinations and
transformations. Hence the importance of ap
plying to exhausted lands the salts of fertility
—the phosphate of lime, tho chloride of sodi
um, guano and many others. Mixed manures
are much better than any particular one. Com
mon stable manure well housed, contains am
monia largely, and nearly all the valuable salts.
The power and efficacy of common salt on
cotton may be seen in the long staple of the
Sea Island variety. This cotton, I believe, is a
native of one of the West India Islands, and
was transplanted to Georgia on the Islands be
low Darien and extending to Savannah, by the
Turnbulls, Spauldings, Tatnalls, and Leakes.
Be it remembered that under the equator, the
coarsest sheep's wool, and the shortest and coars
est cotton staple grows. The cotton staple is the
convert in the warmest latitudes; and so is
sheep's wool.
As we recede from the equator—north, the
ootton staple becomes longer and finer, until we
reach the latitude of Memphis, Tennessee, where
the upland staple arrives at its greatest perfec
tion. Col. Pope, of Memphis, Tennessee, took
the premium at the World s Fairs, both in New
York and London, years ago, for tlie finest up
land cotton.
Whilst this is tho law of nature, that in low
warm latitudes the cotton staple is the shortest
and coarsest, yet we know, and everybody knows,
that common salt from the Ocean and Gulf of
Mexico, carried in spray by the winds and tem
pests even thirty miles inland, improves the
staple and makes it the longest and finest of all
varieties. In further corroboration of the direct
power of common salt on cotton, it is known
that all attempts to raise S*»a Island cotton in the
up-country, beyond the influence of salt water,
hive resulted in tailures. Gov. Hamilton tried
it on the Hope Oswichee Bend plantation, below
Columbus, Ga., over thirty years ago, with
signal failure. Therefore, the power of common
a Ut is manifest and visible on ootton, and as the
Southern planters are now awaking up from
their sleep of ignorance, it is to be expected that
by many trials, experiments, observation and
experience, we will conquer the rust. We pro
fess to teach no one ; we confess onr ignoronce
in all agricultural matters; but, as Horace said
of himself in his De Arte Poetiea, we propose
to exert the of&ce of a whetstone : “not sharp in
itself, bnt capable of sharpening the intellect of
others, by exciting investigation.”
If wu are called upon by our interest to use
common salt as an anti-rust manure, as well as
a general fertilizers, we must have it at a rea
sonable—paying price, or forego its use.
Before the war, steamboats would put down
r u nw the plantations on all the Southern rivers
a* $1 to fl 25 per 3 bushel sack. This was the
esse on the Chattahoochee, Apalachicola Bay,
and the steamboats conferred great comforts
and blessings upon planters. How is it now ?
That mammoth monopoly, the Georgia Central
Railroad, if I mistake not, charges $1.42 for
freight alone, from Savannah, Ga., to Eufaula,
making it cost here about $3»00 per sack. We
cannot manure with it at that price. In Eng
land it costs only 10 cents per bushel—and they
use 10 to 20 bushels per acre on their lands.
The Central Railroad is killing the goose that
lays the golden eggs. A wise forecast as well
as profound political economy should teach
them—that low tariff charges on salt for agri
cultural purposes would pay them ten-fold in
the increased production, and the invigorated
prosperity of the country.
All extortion, tyranny, and oppression are
Eatefnl in the sight of God and man, and sooner
or later will pay the penalty of their crimes
against the peace, prosperity and happiness of
the people.
Will that distinguished assemplage, at the
State Fair, soon to convene at Macon, Ga., take
this matter into consideration ?
Should the members at the Fair make an ap
peal to the Central Railroad Company, to re
duce their charges on salt to a nominal price,
for their own interest, as well as that of the peo
ple, perhaps it might be heeded.
It was not the genius of Napoleon, but the
public opinion of the people’s giving utterances
of their detestation to all tyrannies, which waft
ed his banner in triumph over the continent of
Europe. Rush cub.
