ilril KflEkld' *' ... ,-t '.T.;rr,.r-t - ■ ' V ioai tlie Southern Times and Planter. I!marks of Mr. J. S. Seteman, of Hancock, <m Homs Fertiliters before the Rome Convention. Written out for the “ Plantation ” in response to a resolution of the Contention asking ttfpHblication. Mr. President and Gentlemen of the Convention.” In response to the invitation of your committee to introduce the dis cussion of Home Fertilizers,” I pro pose, without attempting a speech, to introduce the subject with a few plain, practical remarks. With the exception, perhaps, of the Labor question; there is none of such vital importance to the Ag riculturists of Georgia as that of cheap Home Fertilizers. I do not propose to limit the subject to mere manures saved or prepared on the farm, but will treat ofit in its wid est scope, embracing all of the econ omic means, at the command of the landlord, of permanently improving his soil and increasing his annual income. This involves a judicious rotation of crops to secure and pre serve an abundant supply of humus in the soil—deep and thorough prep aration —careful husbanding and manipulation of all animal excre ments and a judicious concentration of the latter. But, Sir, lam met on the very thrcshhold with a seiious, though I hope not an insuperable difficulty. We must combat, not only prejudice, but habit and prac tice. Our people are nat sufficiently self-reliant or sell sustaining. We have too long depended upon for eign skill and industry for com modities, the material of which lie in waste at cur very doors. With our mountains teeming with the richest iron ore; we import the plows with which we till our lands —the hoes with which we cultivate our crops —the axes with which we fell our forests—in a word, every tool and implement used on our farms. Wills the toughest oak and hicko ry growing in our forests, we even imoort hames and axe-helves. I might extend the enumeration until it enbraced every article of prime consumption ; for we even import our own cotton, in fabric, af ter the price has been quadrupled by shipment, manufacturing and re shipment. Indeed, Sirs, the habit of import ing is so fixed, that we are prone to regard as imferior, that which is of home manufacture. This militates against the devel opment of our resources ; and while I would not counsel the extreme of rejecting all importations, let us first husband and utilize our home resources and supplement these by importations from abroad. Under the influence of this habit to which I have alluded, our planters have neglected the means, which nature affords them, of fertilizing their lands, and relied 100 exclusively up on commercial manure*; many of which are excellent, but too cosily for profitable use upon lands so de nuded of vegetable matter as those in the cotton region generally are. Let us examine for a moment these natural means of fertilization as adapted to our old and worn lands. Our lands have been cultivated so constantly in humus —destroying crops, that the first step to be taken is the turning under of Green Caors. a', a means not only of supplying humus to the soil, but of ameliora ting its physical condition to prevent baking, and admit a free circulation of atmospheric air with its fertiliz ing properties. Nature points to peas and clover, kindred plants, which send their tap roots deep into the subsoil and drying up the mineral salts from be -yond the reach of the plow, which absorb ammonia from the atmos phere in an eminent degiee, as pe culiarly suited for the purpose of green manure. By returning these to the soil while green, we return not only all that was extracted from the soil, but an important element of fertility from the atmosphere. There is no soil which is not adap ted to one or the other of these plants. Mr. Edmond Ruffin, the great ag riculturist of Virginia, quadrupled the product of his lands by the use of marl and clover as fertilizers.— Lands in Virginia which twenty years ago were worn and gullied, and turned out ns exhausted, are now producing forty bushels of corn per acre. What has been done in Virginia may be done here. We havs fol lowed their example in one respect. They exhausted their lands by con tinued cultivation in tobacco; wc have exhausted ours by shallow preparation and continued cultiva tion in cotton and com. Clover and plaster, with the aid of stock, have restored their lands to their original fertility. Let us fol low their example and Build up our waste places. But, gentlemen, as our President! bus well said, t> succeed we ir.usl t feel that we are permanently I oca- j ted ant| must have faith in our work.' If we will use the means at our! command we can restore nor ex- j bausted lands to their virgin fertility. I By the use of green manures, grass, stock, deep plowing and 1 cheap Home Fertilizers, the “red old j hillsoi Georgia” may be made to! “bloom as the rose” and rejoice the j hearts of the husbandmen with abundant harvests. But here we are met by another difficulty. You say we have not time for all of thia. Cotton demands all of our time.— This brings us to another important point upon which we have had “line upon line,” and precept upon pre cept,” to no purpose. We plant too much cotton on too much land poor ly prepared and poorly manured. If we will concentrate our effort* upon a smaller area thoroughly pre pared, well manured and thorough ly cultivated we will have time to improve our landed capital, and yet realize a belter per cent on the in vestment than by scratching over the whole surface. I have been surprised to aee over the signature of an eminent agricul tural writer, the deterioration of the land charged in the cost of produc ing cotton, can we boast of progress when a portion of our protits must come out of our capital; The same writer advocates the old practice of surface scratching with turning shovels and scooters against deep and thorough prepara tion. Halt preparation and half cul tivation, of the largest possible area, has been the bane of the South, Times have changed and we must change with them. The time for wearing out land and moving West is past. As our Pres ident has remarked, we must first feel that we are permanently settled, and then determine to succeed, to piogress, to improve and benulify, instead of desolating the land in which we live. Where clay is in reach of the plow, restoration is ea sy. Bring to the surface, each year, an inch of new clay early enough for the frosts of Winter to pulverize and incorporate it with the surface soil. You will thus improve both the chemical and mechanical condi tion of the soil. This is especially the case where the surface is sandy. Besides the increased capacity tor absorbing ammonia from the atmos phere, the dark color imparted by the clay causes a greater absorption of heat which is of great service in “starting off” vegetation in spring. Stock occupy a conspicuous place among the agencies of Home Fertil ization. The determination ol the best mode of utilizing their excre ments, solid and iiquid, is a matter of very great importance, and one which has received too little atten tion at the hands of ihe Southern Agriculturist. As usually saved on Georgia farms, the best parts are lost. The common practice is, to collect in an open lot the year’s sup ply, exposed to the injurious effects of both rain and sun. Thus expos ed, the soluble parts are leached through into the soil below, or car ried off into gullies or creeks : while the ammonia, which is always in the form of a carbonate is volatilized and lost. Unless stock can he kept ! in sheltered stalls, they should be penned at night on cultivable land where the liquid parts can be imme diately absorbed by the soil, and the solid parfs preserved by plowing tljem in as they collect in sufficient quantity. All work stock should be fed in well ventilated stalls, shelter ed from the effects of rain and sun. The excrements, solid and liquid, ' should remain in the stalls until ma , nipulalcd for use, and the ammonia fixed by the frequent use of plaster which converts the carbonate into the sulphate of ammonia, in which form it will remain without loss un til used for plant food, dries off the surface of the manure, prevents in jury to the eyes and hoofs of the an imals, and entirely deodorizes the manure. The loss in the manure thus pre served is insignificant. The air be ing excluded by its compactness, no fermentation takes place—no heal is generated until the bulk is broken and exposed for a lime to the air. This should not be done until its final manipulation preparatory to its ap plication to the soil. We are all fa miliar with the injury the manurial properties of cotton seed when the seed are heated in bulk without plas ter or an absorbent. No one would think of exposing commercial ma nure without shelter during a win ter; then why treat home manures thus! Stable manure is adapted to all crops and all soils. I3 it strange that it should be, when we remem ber that it is derived from the very soil to which we apply it, and thro’ the medium of the very plants to which we return it as food ? The excrement, solid and liquid, of fully grown animals kept in uniform con dition, contain all the elements of the plants from which they derive their food. Liebey, after speaking of the conditions necessary in a ma nure for the purposes of agriculture, remarks: “All these conditions are united in liquid and solid excrements; none of them arc nhsent. In these are present not only amiaouia, but also alkalies, phosphates and sulphates, in the relative proportion in which they exist in our cultivated plants. Our Fall Slock.
