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.
