Commercial Fertilizers.
To the Editor of the Dispatch:
la my Ust correspondence tc the
Dispatch I promised to have something
more to say on the cost and
value of commercial fertilizers.
! The best and cheapest way to buy
| fertilizers is to buy tne different inI
gradients in a raw state and do the
I - l. t?
\ UllXlDg ac UUUiti. XU uhaiug t?v uuujc j
| we fcaow exactly what we have. B>
buying the ingredients sep irately
| they can be. bought for about the
following prices lor the amount of
available plant food that they contain:
available phosphoric acid five
cents per pound; potash five cents
per pound, and ammonia fifteen
cents per pound.
Now let us see what a ton of 8, 2,
| 2 goods are worth at the above p? ices.
VVe will first take the available phos
pOoric acid. To find this we multiply
twenty by eight and find that
there is 160 pounds of available
phosphoric acid in one ton. Multiply
the 160 by five, the price per
pound of available acid; we fiad
that the acd is worth $8 00 Next
we will take the potash. Multiplying
twenty by two we find forty
pounds of potash in one ton, which
i? worth five cents per pound, or
$2 00 for the forty pounds. The
uo per cent of ammonia will be
ferry pounds in one ton and rnuki- !
plying this by fifteen we find tbat
the ammonia is worth $G 00. making
a total of $1C 00
The fertilizer dealers charge from
$20 00 to $2100 per ton for this
guano.
By mixing 1,000 pounds of 14 per
cent acid, 700 pounds of cotton seed
meal and 75 pounds of muriate of
potash or 300 pounds of katnit, as j
good a guano can be made as the 8,
2, 2 goods. I have bad experienfce
wit a this work for the past two years
I would advise the use of high
grade goods except for the ammonia.
High grade acid can be bought
cheaper in proportion to the amount
of plant food contained than low
grade can. I have been told by
ioc*l farmers that muriute of potash
will give better results than kaiuit, i
and as it contains four times as much
nntash as kainit it is not cecesearv
r ? w
io use only one fouttb as much. For
ammooia use cotton seed meal as it
is vegetable matter and what is not
plant food will decay and make j
oumus. Humus is any vegetable or j
animal matter that has decajed and j
is very important in plant growth, j
Lands that contain a sufficient j
amount of humus is always loose.
All litter, such as grass aDd weeds |
or pine straw that is on the lands
should be plowed under in the fall
as it will then decay and supply
humus for succeeding crops. But i
ch* best way to supply humus and !
at the same time improve lands is j
to plant ihem to leguminous crops,
such as peas, velvet beans, or clovers
and make hay of these crops to feed
beef cattle and then return the ma- !
nute from these cattle fo the ?arm I
lands. Ia this way they can supply 1
plant food io the most profitable i
fatm and at the same time supply i
a sufficient amount of humus.
The farmer that uses only com- j
meicial fertilizes will find that it is j
impossible for him to improve his j
lands. Commercial fertilizers are
only intended to supply plant focd
for the immediate crop to which
tney are applied and not to improve
I ho <x na
VUV . U JUUi
Another mistake id using ferti- ;
lizers is in applying large quantities i
on shallow and pojil? prepared !
j lands. Such soils cannot use much j
plant food in their crop growth as j
the hard pan will not permit the j
roots of the growing crops to reach :
down ra the iaod'for moisture. For i
these reasons tb?;crops will drown
in wet weather and dry up in dry
weather. If a farmer wishes to use
large amounts of fertilizers of any
i k?od he should have a good deep
| mellow soil for hfc plants to grow in. j

To the Hooorabie Senators and Congressmen
representing the Cotton

the U iited States:
Gentlemen I beg to call your attention
to tbe following resolution
adopted by tbe Nat'oaal Cotton
Growers' Hssncint'on, in convention

BBffiiMeDt to dispose of the present
crop; and,
"Wberea*, we believe the consumption
of cofcton can be greatly increased
in the maikets of the world;
and,
"Whereas, such increases will result
ia untold good to the cotton
erowiog Spates, reducing the surplu?,
thereby creating a greater dunai d
and n ceaearily higher prices for our
cott??r; therefore, be it,
"R?Holve4, That a special commit
tee be appointed bv this convention
to^oiifer with the President of the
States, the Secretary of Ag
nculture and the manufacturers of
citton goods, to obtaiQ such con
carted action as will enlarge our trade
in co'toD products in foreign countries/'
I beg further to call your attention
to the fact that this was the mnst.
representative body cf men which
has ever been called together to discuss
the great agricultural interests
of the South.
You are therefore earnestly re
quested to give your active and hearty
support to such measures as will
effectuate the purposes embodied in
these resolutions. ?
Most resnecifullr.

Startling but True.
People the world over were horrified
on learning of the burning of a Chicago
theater in which nearly six hundred
people lost their lives, yet more than five
times this number or over 3,000 people
died from pneumonia in Chicago during
the same year, with scarcely a passing
notice. Every one of these cases of
pneumonia resulted from a cold and
could have been prevented by the timely
use of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy.
A great many who had every reason to
fear pneumonia have warded it off by
the prompt use of this remedy. The
following is an instance of this sort:
'Too much cannot be said in favor of
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, and especially
for colds and influenza: I know
that it cured my daughter, Laura, of a
severe cold and I believe saved her life
when slie was threatened with pneumonia."

Washington, Feb. 0.?The soowfovered
ground and intensely cold
weather are pUjing havoc with birds
and game in Virginia and Marjhnd
Reports coming from the river counties
of those states say that tqnirrels
and rabbits have been seen in barn
yards hunting food an] that coveys
of partridges are to be found living
with domestic fowls. From New
Kent couoty, V*. conies a report
that wild deer from the mountains I
have been seen herding with cattle j
in pastures where there were hay j
racks. To save the game many
farmer-i >;re daily scattering grain
about the fields and highways.
