Now that par pountry islcomplotoly
gridironed with Canals and Railroads,
bringing whatever has a mercantile
value very near every one's door, 1
suggest that no township should go
without Gypsum. Five dollars will
buy at least two barrels of it almost'
anywhere; and two barrels may be i
sown over five or six acres: Let it be.
sown so that its effect (or nomoffect)
may be palpable ; give it a fair, care
ful trial, and await the result. If it
seem to subserve no good purpose, be
not too swift to enter up judgement,
but buy tficaasejiqcls,_ : ;'vary your
timo and method of application, and
try again. If the result bo still null,
let it be given up that Gypsum is not
the fertilizer needed just there—that
soma ill,pndgrstoo Harity,.of
or' ,linsateirendVre ILFthnreiindffeetiViC.
Then lot its use be there abandoned ;
but it will still. remain ; ; true.
