Why then, should it be wasted?. And who, pray, thinks of saving it? Very few, indeed. And why not? Is it because it is too unimportant a matter in agricultural economy, to be worthy of consideration? If that be your opin- ion, you labor under a most egregious error, as we shall presently attempt to show you. The theory is that each pint of urine has in it the constituent elements necessary to make a pound of wheat: well then, as every healthy grown up human being, is presumed to excrete 3 lbs. of Urine daily, if su$h li- quid voidings be saved, and appropriated to that purpose, it is competent to grow with this kind of the product of one man, per year, 1095 lbs., which is equal to 18 bushels of wheat. So, if we re the inevitable consequence.

(Remainder in our next.') the liquid evacuations of one individual, is sufficient to afford the necessary ma- nure for au acre of land to be cultivated in wheat, and, indeed, in almost any other crop. But suppose we reduce this estimated value, one-hal- f, to make allowance for wastage, in various wajTs, where there was an increased produce, by means of salt, of six bushels'of wheat per acre. The salt should be applied some time before sowing the seed, not less than ten, and not more than twenty bushels per acre.

The sweetheart of Miss Fanny was a young farmer, residing in the neighborhood, whom we shall designate by the name. of Bob. It happened, that one dy before har- vest the vouog man was detained in tho quantity of salt per acre (in 1849) pro- duced an increase of five and a half bushels per acre. faeocing this work differs so much in jpur expanded country, that it is impos- sible to fix upon any particular period hat would be universally proper; for although the corn is already up and flouting its luxuriant foliage to the Breeze, in many of the states in which our journal circulates, it will not be The testimony of an Essex farmer corroborates these results.

The Application oi'Salt as a 2 a mire. The application of common salt as a fertilizer has been partially understood and practised by a few of our agricultur- ists, but wo very much doubt whether the full benefits of this substance have been derived by those even who have made the experiment, and in some de- gree realized tho advantage it affords. It may be applied advantageously di- rectly to the soil, or it may be mixed with the dung heap. It is found bene- ficial to pasture as well as root crops, means, and from this source, to manure half an acre of land for every healthy a-d- ult member of our families and do it well besides deriving a large addition- al supply of the enriching material, from the junior members of our house- holds. Let us carry out this calculation to the entire population of our country, and what is the result? Theory gives the capacity to a pound of urine, of pro- ducing a pound of wheat, or that the quantity voided by one individual in a year, is sufficient to produce 18 2 bush- els of wheat, then, as we have a pop- ulation of 22 millions of human beings, if we assume, taking the old and the bven in our own state, no particular its active virtues so much of its agri- - which is of .rather a loose hollow de- scription, had a dressing of salt in No- vember, after the wheat was sown, a-b- fourteen or fifteen bushels per acre: it produced at the rate of six bushels per acre more than that which ' was not lay can be set down as the proper one; mltur.il value.

If that be your opin-ion, you labor under a most egregiouserror, as we shall presently attempt toshow you. The theory is that eachpint of urine has in it the constituentelements necessary to make a pound ofwheat: well then, as every healthygrown up human being, is presumed toexcrete 3 lbs. of Urine daily, if su$h li-

The Application oi'Salt asa 2amire.

The application of common salt as afertilizer has been partially understoodand practised by a few of our agricultur-ists, but wo very much doubt whetherthe full benefits of this substance havebeen derived by those even who havemade the experiment, and in some de-

gree realized tho advantage it affords.It may be applied advantageously di-

rectly to the soil, or it may be mixedwith the dung heap. It is found bene-ficial to pasture as well as root crops,

means, and from this source, to manurehalf an acre of land for every healthy a-d- ult

member of our families and do itwell besides deriving a large addition-al supply of the enriching material,from the junior members of our house-holds. Let us carry out this calculationto the entire population of our country,and what is the result? Theory givesthe capacity to a pound of urine, of pro-ducing a pound of wheat, or that thequantity voided by one individual in ayear, is sufficient to produce 18 2 bush-els of wheat, then, as we have a pop-

ulation of 22 millions of human beings,if we assume, taking the old and the
