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 :

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.

" My love, I am about to step out a
few moments, for refreshments. Do

Gentleman Jack took the cite, and
patting his wife on the shoulder, sung
