Among the iractical papers i t ad at
the Farmers' I i^tiiuie at liitlge Springs
mme. attracted more attention than the

Count \:
Il??w can we know when w* are
tuii.g coinmetcial fertilizers in the
mo?.i economical .va\ ?
L*t. us take a hurried glance over
the situation as it presents itseif. We
hivtt a State with u great range of soil
ami climate, extending from thej seacoast
to the mountains. In the Handbook
of the Slate it is divided into six
divisions: Sea i?l;<nd and coa?t region,
lower and upper pine belt, >aud hill,
Piedmont and AI nine regions. In
m?u:l* uf !lit'in we will find types of soil
coin noii to all. We ^pend annually"
ni> >tit 000,000 lor commercial fertilizer*
in this Stun?, e-insi-ting of the
so-called guano, containimr IVuii; '1 to
o jht cent of ammonium, s to 10 per
wnt phosphoric acid, 1 to 3 per cent
potash, so-called diM?lved bone (acidulated
root,) containing ?l> >ut K> per
cpuI phosphoric fteid; kaitiit with 23
prr cent sulphate of potash, muriate of
potash, sulphate of pota.-h inrni-hin"
potash. For nitrogen we have cofon
seed meal, nitrate of soda, iit'pha e of
ammonia. dried blood, li-li ser<ip and
an abundance of lime.
Of the above we find about 40 per
wnt consisting of the sruano or com
pounced fertHiz *rs. It is not reasonable
to suppose that the compounded
manures that we find in the market, all
made after the same formula altnosr,
would he adapted to ?uch a great, varied
?.t soils. With So tew prime ingredients
really necessary we ought to
he a!?Ie to find the compound that is
hesii adapted to each of the varieties ol
soil found.
now to <;et at tiie tuutu.
How are we to arrive at a sati>t:ic- j
(orv answer? Will a mrchanie.it or i
phtsieal analysis <rive u>'the answer?

Can ?e get a satisfactory answer from
the observations ot' tlie fanner? Can
the agricultural chemist answer?
Cm the experimental station?
It ?cetus to me that the only way we
will t-wrget a reiiableaiulsatisfactory
answer will l?e when we call i:i ilicj
tanner and have linsi to work along j
with the experimental station.
The chemist tells its that a chemical !
anahsis ot >oils will not {five tlie j
answer. Ft a vi gin soil an-t a worn |
soil, contiguous :o each other, will !
give about the sum-: analysis; hut one;
will give a g?o 1 crop, the other will I
fail to (1 > so. We know what inliiiite>imal
amounts ot tertilizers will show :
on tiir crop, hut it would be nuria-on-i.

know , but none ??f ilium will say which
ingredients and how much of each ia
needed.
Can we rely upon the observation of j
the be?t farmers? My experience i> i
that the effort to determine the result j
ol application of manures by the eyes!'
has been most fatal to agricultural pro- j
gress. Experimenting as I havs fur a i
number of \ ears, I cuttld enumerate a 1
number of gro>s mistakes thus made, i
and could show that large sums ol
money have been wasted in that way. !

Florida, agricultural station, the dircc- '
tors consulted a number of successful 1
farmers as to the results of a crop of 1
commercial manure on one acre with :
one ton cotton seed meal, on another 1
with one ton of a compound lert'lizer, ]
ami on one with no manure. The two

THE ACKICL'LTL'UAL CHEMIST. ,
Can the agricultural chemist ?i\v uthe
answer we are smiting? iVof.
Paul Wagner, of Germany, who has
been giving time for several \ ears to 1
the subject of cosnn e ei.il fertilizvrs,
says:
"First. Commetcial manure place :
the farmer who cultivates intei-.-ivelv
in a position to bring crops, even
those varieties which need most t>!&ni
food or are most productive, to their
highest development, increasing :he '
> ield to a degree that is not possoib!e '
bv mere barnyard manure; and furth-1
ermore, they place him in a position
to return very exhaustive crops to their
former fields niter idatively shorter
periods, and that without perceptible
liminntion of vield or exhaustion of |
-foil.
"Second. Commercial manures
: lace tine cautious and circumspect
tanner in a position to increase, temporal
i y or permanently, the development
ol'crops in any Soil, even in the
poorest, and so adjust the nutrition of,
h?- >ame to the peculiar relation o! :

"T:iirl. Commercial manures t:ii- ,
aUe the farmer who cultivates extensively
to make the mutt of his \?idiacres
for the storing of atmospheric
nitrogen. Phosphoric acid and potash
:-a!ts give to clover, vetches, pe^s, s.uratielU,
etc, the power to withdraw 1
from 1 he atmosphere great quantities
of nitrogen, thus enriching lm?ban Irv
with the most valuable of all fertilizer?.
"They also enable them to increase
the food capital, and to gradually
transtorm the extensive product ion
into an intensive one, therehv increa<- '
