Manures.
Farm-yard manure is generally made up of
the solid and liquid excrements of animals,
some in a state of decomposition, and the re
mainder fresh and unchanged. There exists
a great difference of opinion as to whether it
is most advantageous to use long or fresh ma
nures, rafhor thn htt ; m.i.,i,.
"-'" w..c.j "I ff fff Feet of good BOARDS wanted by
rotted. The difficulty is capable of adjust- 1UU,UUU A.M.IIILLS, at hisstore in Clear
ment. If the intention be onlv to benefit the nc,J' for which tho highest market price will be
immediately succeeding crop, the manure
should be completely rotted ; but long-manure,
if ploughed in and covered, is more benefi
cial to future crops ; it is much preferred for
potatoes, for rotten manures make them wa
tery and worm-eaten. If the object be to
furnish the greatest amount of organic Mat
ter to the soil the soouer the application is
made the better. On compact clays the mix
ture of straw and course manure is beneficial,
rendering them loose and Jight, while the pro
ducts of decomposition are more completely
retained than in a looser soil. Coarse manure
makes loose soils looser and loses more of its
elements in decomposing ; for this reason
compact, ferment manures are best on such
soils. For crops which grow rapidly and ma
nurc in a short time, well fermented manures
and fine composts are more immediatelj' felt ;
turnips, buckwheat, clover, and many garden
vegetables, might almost mature before de
composition would be sufiiciently advanced
in new and coarse manures to do them any
benefit. When it is desired to force or quick
en a crop, a well fermented or line heating
manure should be used, as rich compost, bone
dust, or manure of hersc and sheep. The
straw of wheat, oats, &c, contains a mixture
of saline substances, which is exceedingly val
uable as manures to almost every crop ; the
same is true of their chaff. It is more econ
omical generally to rot the straw and cbaffin
the barn-yard, instead of dissipating all their
volatile matter in the air ; when buried dry
they decompose slowly, and produce a less
sensible effect on the succeeding crop. Du
ring fermentation an unavoidable loss of or
ganic and of saline matter takes place. It is,
therefore, theortically true of dry as well as
' 6' cgeuuiw uiiiucr, mat li. wiii auu I
most to tne sou if ploughed in previons to fcr-
mentation. Yet this is not the only consider-
eration for a practical man ; instead of a slow
and prolonged action on his crops, he may
require an immediate and powerful one for a
shorter time, and to obtain this, may be justi
fied in fermenting his straw with the certainty
even of a loss. Thus the dispute about the
application of Jong or short manures becomes
altogether on of expediency and practical
economy. Chaff partakes of the nature of
fctraw, but decomposes even more slowly when
buried dry Tt is also difficult try format
even when mixed wittiTnimcrr niSnuxc Tue
main general difference between vegetable
manure of the same kind, cut at the same age,
-,, ina iricenordry state is this :
auu wl r
the former decomposes more rapidly,
and
therefore acts more speedily ; the total effect
t will probably be very near the
same. But if the vegetable matter. had been
cut at a more advanced stage, or been expo
Bed to the wheather while drying, it will no
longer exhibit the same efficacy. A ton of
dry straw cut green will be much riciicr man
if cut ripe and dry; not only because the green
plant contains the materials from which the
grain is afterwards formed, but because as the
plant ripened it restored to the earth a portion
of the saline matters it originally extracted.
After it is cat, every shower that falls on it
washes out a portion of the salt contained in
its pores. ( Sec Scientific Agriculture, by
Rogers ; Johnston and Brown's Field Book,
223.) All thoso troublesome pests, uie roo
bers of our fields, should be cut down in their
greatest vigor and laid in tho barn-yard or pig
sty to decay ; they are rich in fertalizing salts,
and whencver'and however applied, are valu
able as manure. It almost surpasses our cal
culation estimate the damages done to crops
by weeds, and the consequent advantages of
destroying them in their bloom ; almost every
species produces millions of seeds which are
waited to far distant-spots ; they shade and
occupy the soil, and by their superior vigor
drain out the sustenance prepared for more
delicate plants, and at last smother them.
The remains of plants with the excrement
and carcases of animals, if returned to the
earth before decomposition, must contain all
the mineral, organic and gaseous matters
which the animals derive Irom their food, or
the plants from the soil. The solid matters
must all pass through the process of decompo
sition, before they assume their original, gas
eous or earthly forms, and becoroo food for
plants. The science of manuring consists in
applving to the soil those elements which
have been taken up by growing crops ; the
richest manures may bts applied to a failing
Boil, and if they lack the . particular elements
which the crop require, and which the soil
does not contain, the field grows barren.
Farm-yard manure probably contains the great
est number of elements necessary to fertility,
but for their full development particular pUnts
require special manures.
Manures operate beneficially in various ways:
First by serving in some instances as food
for plants. Second By causing chemical
. changes in the soil by which other substances
are prepared to be taken up as food. Third
By neutralizing noxious substances in the
6oil, which prevent the growth of crops.
Fourth By their bulk and texture they change
the mechanical properties of soils.
The will of Jabez Barber, of Chicago, who
with his wife and eldest daughter were passen
gers on the ill-fated Pacific, was opened on the
16th inst., before the judge of probate. The
bulk of his property, amounting to $250,000,
will fall to the only surviving child, a little
, girl of three years old.

DISPEPSIA AND LIVER COMPLAINTS
