' mi asd .V -^HjflpbiBoti,'' by Siiaeon D,^-> ,HH? Reynolds, M. U?,j,^f Qom^HHpiitacbuaetts. The subject Is ot^HDpt^iffct now, is engag^Rl|^|Pflr5^?igfit aniong the Southern planters. We think that we can do that claaa of oar readers no better service than by laying this essay somes what in full before them. * Guano has been more extensively used aa a special fertilizer than nny others, perhaps than all others. It consists of toe excrement and exuvia ?f birds .dropped upon the same spot through long periods of time. Tbo birds select some island of the ocean where their favorite food abounds, congregate upon it io vast numbers, and there rear their voung. This is also their resting place by day and night. The consequence is that all their droppings, when they are not upon the wing, fail upon the same place. Long before the keel of any vcsael divided the waters of tho vast Pacif ic, or the foot of man trod upon its islands, these birds were collecting their food from its prolific bosom, perpetuating their kind, and adding layer upon layer of their excrement, until some of them are now vast accumulations of Suano, twenty, forty, or sixty feot in epth. Ir is calculated that the deposits of it in south and middle Peru amount to more than twenty millions of tons.? The best guano is found in those tropical latitudes where it seldom or never rains. This vast mas?, however, is not entirely csmposed of the digested droppings of the birds. It contains also feathers, bones, and tho animal matter which come from the decay of the birds themselves. The groat difiercnce in the results obtained from the analysis of different samples of guano indicates that age, exposure, and other circumstances greatly afifect its proprieties. Sound guauu cuumuia n itmuuut ui ;?ur moniacal salts as well as phosphates. In birds, the secretion of kidneys, as well as the intestines, a^^arried into the cloaca, whore the)' become mixed and combined. The food of the sea fowl, which produces this substance, is almost wholly fish, on which account their excrement it; much richer in ni trogen than that of the birds or animals that feed on vegetable food. Its value depends essentially on this fact. COMPOSITION OF OUANO. Professor Norton gives tho composition of a few leading varieties in the following table : 3-5: 3 2. ^ cr sr < 5 . 2 1112 ? 00 ?o -1 OS O ScT S ? 3? -4 O * Si r i I i\S * 3 -1 ~ ? aa D C?5 - w. Ok o- g O O O O -3 M M M I?-111 Tl.i?, it is evident at a jinnee, is an ex treniely rich manure; tlie quantities of ainmoniacnl salts, and of phosphates are re markalily large. The Ichnhoc guano eontains much more water than the others, I becauee the climate in that region is not so j dry as on the west const of South America. { It is also more decomposed, giving usually , a stronger smell of ammonia. The Pacific guanos have very little smell of ammonia, ! but if they are mixed with a little quicklime and gently heated, the odor becomes ! extremely pungent. More recent importations are from two ' islands in the Pacific, discovered by Am^ri- j cans, and called Baker and Jarvis Islands, j Bays Liebig, "The guanos from these islands [ are distinguished from others by their acid i recreation and greater solubility. They | contain only a small quantity of substances . containing nitrogen, no uric acid, and small : proportions of nitric acid, potash, magnesia, i and ammonia. The Baker's Island guano contains as much ?9 eighty p?-r cent., the I Jarvis thirty-three or four per cent., of phosphate of lime. The latter has forty. ! four per cent, of gypsum. These guanos j Approach nearest in their composition to I boned list. Their condition end les the; farmer who wishes to accelerate their act ion, ; to convert them into superphosphate, by the addition of from twenty to twenty five per cent, of their weight ol concentrated sul- j nhuric acid. According to an analysis hy Voelker one pound of guano was found fo be eqnal to j fifty pounds of farm yard manure, and that it containa these element* in the moat eon- I cent rated form. find permits the application ' oj them to the field more conveniently than 1 farm-yard manure, as it may often be done j after putting in the seed. The difference between the Peruvian and Mexican guanos is, that the former contains a larger proportion of tlio ammoniacal salts and the latter a larger proportion of the phosphate*. The especial value of the former may be seen in tbe increase of the Straw and enlms in the grain and grass; while the value "f 'bo. latter is manifested In the increased volume and plumpness of the grain and feeds. Tlio high | rices at i which the guanos have been held for the past few years, have greatly diminished their use in this country. At a reasonable price lliey might be used t.o great profit on our partially exhausted soils, especially when ured in combination with carbonaceous matters. If good guano can be furnished at the seaporta at from forty to fifty dollars per tot), it would find an extensive demand. It is Capable ot increasing, under judicious apjiliention, tbe empa of grain, potatoes, and grass, at least thirty-three per cent Owing to its comparative cleanliness and facility ot application, it is peculiarly suited to horticultural and floiul improvement iiut guano is shameful ly adulterated, and the fanner not only frequently loses the money lie pays for It, but loses bis labor, tbe use of his land, and the crop which ought to grow upon it. Piofesaor Johnston mentions an instance of four vessels which milled from English ports ballasted with plaster of Paris, intended for admixture RprttK thegoaTO tfhn the vessels wsr^-load*d at liie Islands. Another favorite mate rial for adulteration la umber, eo that in some cases the farmer gets fifteen hundred pounds of umber to the ton, and only five hundred pounds of gnnno. In order to protect the purchaser fron^ such outrageous impositions, the Professor gives the following as tests: 1st. The drier tho better; there is less water to pay for and transport. 2d. The lighter the color the better; it is not so completely decomposed. 3d. It has not n strong ainmonincal smell, > it ought to give off such a smell when a j spoonful of it is mixed with a spoonful of ' quicklime in a glass. 41h. When put into a tumbler with watt-r j and well stirred, and the water and fine ! mottoy fw in 11 r>?T it ,.n.?l.i .> 1 ..n ? I.? sand or stones. What is the effect of guano upon crops? j In the first place, is it permanent ? The popular notion is thut it is,not; but wm think it must extend to two crops, because if it? atninoniacal salt? are nearly exhausted the first yenr, the phosphates will continue , to act beyond one year. Professor Johnston 1 says guano very much resembles bones in | its copiposition, and as bonea arc known to i benefit crops in an entire rotation, guano ! ought to do the same. The chief difference j between bones and guano is this: that- the guano contains ammonia ready formed, or j forming, so to speak, while the bones con- i tain gelatine, which forms ammonia only [ during putrefaction. The ntnmo incal part j of the one, therefore, will act early; of the j other, after a longer period, whirothe permanent effects of the remaining ingredients of both will be very much alike. The guanos, then, having tl-o roost ammonia, will have the greatest, present effect, while those having a larger amount of the phosphates will bo the most permanent. Nearly all 1 authorities wo have consulted agree in the conclusion that litre? or four hundred pounds of pure guano is worth as much as fourteen t<? eighteen loads of ordinary manure. An instance ot its energy' is stated by Professor Norton, where eight hundred pounds being put upon an acre of turnip-', they ill grew t-> tops at d produced no bulbs. Even the Buce-'cdiag crop of wheat Was so rank in its growth that, the grain wis miserable. Hon. Marshall P. Wilder, well known to tiro country as one of the lending pomologists. applied eight hundred pounds per sere, and harvested from it sixteen hundred bushels of carrots. Tho following statements were communicated to un several yeais since, hy-l')avid lios.-ly, Esq , of Westfield, Massachusetts. Mr. Mosdy is a thrifty, observing farmer, who manages his estate with singular ability and success. He says (New England Furni-T, vol. 8, p. '2?>S) that three hundred pound* of guano, in one instance, incren.-ed the crop of corn fifteen bushels per norc ; Hint in nnotli r, worth of guntio gave ft profit of j-77 : tlmt in ? third instance he manured n field of seVen acres with fifteen cart-loads of good stable manure, ami on five acres of it sowed one hundred and fifty pounds of g-:n?o p> r acre. The portion on which the guano was put yielded twenty three bushels per acic more than ihe remainder of 'In- field In a fourth instance lie sowed two hundred aid tidy pounds per Acre, which inci-ciond the crop twenty bushels nn nere, and if was ten or twelve days curlier for ihe guano, lie fur J I her slates thai three hundred pounds have given him more bushels of potatoes than twenty loads of manure. now ani> m'iltn to aiti.v otano. j 1st. At we have already stated, gnntio it | best applied in damp or.showery weather, j *2 1. It should he put oil grass lands in I the latter part of March or the early part | of April. Hd. When applied to land just ploughed, lit should be immediately nuxi .1 with the [ noil hy harrowing, or, as Mr Mosely u'at s, hy brushing it wii h birches or ol her brushes. 4th. When grain is sowed early in Ihe ! autumn, only a portion of the gnnno intended to he applied should he then used, I u? the halAnce should he put on.in the spring. If the w hole applied in the fall the gi.ain sometimes becomes too luxuriant, und is liable to he injured by the frosts, j fitli. Guano should be applied with refer- I once to the present crop only, and not with ; the purpose of benefitt ing succeedi >g crops. | tllli. Guano, before Application, should he i mixed with five or six limes its weight of charcoal, fine aoII, or dried muck. We once caused foul* tin s of Peruvian guano to be spread upon n floor ami mixed with six nines iis wcigjn hi inn- mack muck, in lay cis of (lie two ni ticlrs. Aft<r it luul remained in this e. iiulilion two weeks, it was overhauled mid the pile evened up and covered w ith clean muck. The same op< r ntion was repeated in two weeks more. At planting time, two or throe wet ks after the j second overhauling, it was shoveled into j carts, taken into the field, and a moderate handI'nl thrown into each hill. The corn not appearing in due time, exaininaiion was made into its condition, when it was found i that tlie most of the kernels hud sprouted, I hut as soon as the tender germ had i-eaehod the guano it perished. Of the sixteen acres to which it was applied, not a tenth part of the corn ouinc up. Our uext conclusion, j therefore, is? 7th. Thai guano should on no account he ] allowed to coipo in contact with tin- seed.
