Complaint having arisen In regard
to the recently enacted law requiring
manufacturers and dealers In fertili
zers to furnish the Agricultural De
partment with live hundred pounds
of eueh brand In order that thorough
soil tests may bo made, a reporter of
the Atlanta Constitution called on Dr.
Janos, the Agricultural Commis
sioner, mid obtained from him infor
mation of special importance to man
ufacturers, dealers and consumers
of fertilizers. In the tirst [dace the
specific object of the law creating the
department, is to confer upon the
Commissioner the especial charge of
the analysis of fertilizers. A sample
is to be furnished him under rules
prescribed to insure its being a fair
one, and this sample subjected to a
thorough test in order to determine
its practical value.
No conditions uro imposed in the
law as to the nature of the test, or
the manner in which it shall be made,
except that it must be thorough. The
law evidently contemplates a chemi
cal test, but does not coniine it to
that, test alone. The means of sub
jecting a fertilizer to a thorough test
lias been carefully considered by Dr.
Janes, and those adopted by him, viz:
a conjoint analysis, bot h chemical and
experimental, lie believes to be well
calculated to secure the desired end.
The object of the Inspection law is
to protect the public from imposition
in the composition of fertilizers,
whoso constituent elements cannot
be known by simply observing their
physical properties. Such protection
la especially needed in the purchase
of fertilizers, and the recognition of
tiiis fact was a leading reason for cre
ating the department.
What onn bo determined by chemi
cal analysis alone is well understood.
It is, of itself, thorough as |u negative i
tost that is, no fertilizer can be of
any practical value which will not i
stand a chemical test. To complete
it, and make it as thorough ns possi- !
bio, an experimental test in the Held 1
has also been determined upon by |
the Commissioner. When this double
test lias been applied, and the results
of both are in his hands, he call fultil
his duty to planters and dealers by
furnishing information, not only as
to the chemical composition of a fer
tilizer, but also its adaptat ion to par
ticular erops and soils, and lie can
show to manufacturers what changes,
if any, are necessary. -.Sac. A Vies.
German Miner as a Hay t’rtip.
After consulting some of the old
volumes of the America)i Fttrmrr,
which has always been u wise coun
sellor to me, I concluded to try millet
on two and a half acres, and ordered
two and a half bushels of seed. I
dragged down the beds with a seven
toothed harrow and got the Inn ! line
and smooth with the fallow drag. On
the 18th of July I seeded the land;
harrowed it with a Gaddes harrow.
The land was a heavy, stiff, day soil,
not very well adapted to the growth
of this grass, nor was the season very
favorable, having a dry spell just be
fore it headed out, in consequence of
which the crop was not a full 0110
even for the land. Soon after i! had
headed out, and before the seed had
matured or the stalk got hard, I cut
it and cured it in the usual way, and
housed nine large wagon loads of nice
sweet hay, estimated by good judges
at 12,000 pounds. The laud was then
fallowed and seeded in wheat with the
rest of the tobacco lot.
Had ttie millet been seeded earlier,
say last of April or tirst of May, on
suitable soil, with a favorable season,
lam satisfied the yield would have
been much heavier.
This grass was valuable on account
of its rapid growth and early mat uri
ty. This crop was made in eight
weeks and three days from seeding.
Farmers may cut their wheat or oat
crop, fallow the land, and get a large
nice crop in eight weeks, and thereby
avoiil buying so much Northern hay.
Some persons may wish to know if
this grass grows well on very poor
land. I will answer by saying it will
not, unaided by manure or fertilizers
of some kind, not excepting broom
sedge or poverty grass.

grown wherever it lias been tried in

California Fa km i no. Mrs. 1
Young, of California, who edits a de- ;
partinent in the .Science of Jicutth. in .
New York, makes the following in
teresting statements:
"1,. A. Gould, of Santa Clara, dries
the fruit from ninety acres of or- j
chards. He lias opened anew six
thousand acre farm in Fresno coun
ty, bringing water twenty-one miles.
The ditch was commenced and com
pleted inside of sixty days. After!
tlie first of May ho put in one hundred
acres of cotton. We saw on the twen
tieth day of last March on Mr. 1
Gould’s place, fifteen thousand al-,
mond trees six inches high. They |
were put into boxes to sprout in l)e
comber, and planted in nursery rows
in February. The great frost of April
fifth, that damaged tile fruit crop
clear down to Los Angeles, did not
touch the plains of Fresno. Mr. G.
also had five men busy putting in
the cuttings for one hundred acres of
raisins. Six hundred acres of grain
to be cut for hay, looked very nicely.
The place lias been commenced but
one year. Last, year, at the lowest
known prices, twenty acres of straw
berries netted the owner $l5O jar
acre.
“A blackberry patch of one and one- j
half acres, last year, gave sixteen tons !
of perfect fruit. The soil was a rich
light alluvial. The plants were set
4xs. They were cultivated thor
oughly and cleanly, and irrigated eo- j
piously from the time of blossoming
once a week. One man can pick one
hundred to one hundred and fifteen
pounds per day. Seven men were:
employed the fruiting sea
son and constantly at work. They j
are more profitable than strawber
ries.”
i A Southern Grass. - Bermuda grass
[was introduced into Greene county
[about fifty years ago, by Mr. Ezekiel
Park, who procured it near Peters
burg, Va., whither it. wa- brought
from the island of Bermuda. For
several years it was considered a
great eurse upon the planting interest
of the county, but the developments
of the last few years have exploded
this notion, and it is now regarded as
a real blessing in disguise. While it
is till inveterate enemy to the growth
o{ corn and cotton, us a grazing and
hay-grass it bus no superior, if, in
deed, unequal in the whole catalogue
of grasf.es. A single acre in this
county, well set in this grass yielded
the enormous amount, of ten thou
sand pounds of cured hay from a sin
gle cutting.— Greensboro ( Ga.) Herald.
The news from Peru to the 1 It h ult.,
is interesting, from the fact that an
other groat discovery of guano has
just been made in an out-of-the-way
place. This time it has been found
below a hard crust of sand some few
leagues to the south of Iquique, the
principal port whence nitrate is ship
ped from Peru. This guano has been
analyzed and found to be the best
quality.
—Ex-Governor Moses, of South
Carolina, is said to be running a faro
bank at Columbia, in that State.
—The wheat in Cobb county is look
