Guano on Gray Lands and Rust in Cotton. Gray jaud jagood for cotton, and suitable for guano if it has a clay foundation. Land tjiat is sure to make a good crop according to capacity, is sure to do well with manures of any containing plant-food. I disagree with tho Doctor about ammonia being stimulating. It acts at once, bcoausc it is the jaost essential crop feeder, and is.

most soluble. There is no such thing as stimulating plants. Feed them, and thoy will be suro to grow if treated right. Dr. Pobdleton is mistaken about my ever consulting a chemist in regard to my compound, or salt and plaster, or r.

-J 'o preciatc the valuo of chemistry, and the sciences generally, to the world. They are accomplishing wonders. Salt and plaster, from tho first to tho present, have-bcen a complete succoss with me. He is also mistaken about muriate of potash being a That nluo is a success, as all my tenants will bfcar witness, as well as all others who have seen my crops growing. It is remarkable how two men, G.

Ville, in France, and myself here, should agree soncarly about a complete each being ignorant of tho others experiments. I have always classed the essentials of plant-food in this ofderr Ammonia phosphoric acid, potash and lime, just as Professor Ville has done. I admit all must be present; nnd theso if in sufficient quantities, will find the balance in almost any soil. But beside these four, it is all important to have sulphur (as in land plaster) and salt to keep the cotton plant healthy and growing. I have always contended that rust is caused by nothing but poverty of soil, and my practice lias fully proved The first badly rusted cotton I ever saw, was about fifty-five or fifty-eevon years' ago.

Now 1 ant cultivating the same plat with complete success, making from 2,000 to 3,000 lbs, seed cotton per acre. The rust question is of the first importance- (o the planscr.a, and I fay it is by poverty: of soil, in various still it. is poverty. Causes: 1st. Leaching land by it being t.priiigy and by being heavy rains sinking nil soluble matter WloW tho roots of the cotton plant.

2. Gene? ral exhaustion of all the plant-food. 3. Letting it get grnr-sy too early, or jvork too soon, An riit tenants, in 1871, thoro was a wet in One his patches that, got very He pjoughed one-half over with a sweep, and it took on bolls finely, but got taxed and became rusted, but still made a fair crop. On the other half he took a plough and went in deep, throwing the dirt all in the middle, and causing the cotton to throw off what bolls it had then made, and it failed to set any for a good while.

After the plant recovered it grew finely and commenced to take on bolls, and did not rust but made nothing, frost killing all. ThaFploughing was the last, except a middle 8weep furrow. A heavy load of bolls early, will make cotton rust on thin sandy land from exhaustion, if not well sustained with a good fertilizing compound. Last year, on tho top of a sand hill, one of my tenants left out about twenty rows' without He stopped ploughing about the twentieth of July. The manured rows shaded the ground, kept down the crow-foot grass and i did well, making 1,000 to 1,200 seed cotton per acre.

The rows unmanured were overrun with tho grass, rusted, and did not make at tho rate of 100 lbs. per acre. Two years ago, one of my tenants had a cow-pun in tho middle of ono of my fields, in which cotton rusted badly when not properly manured. Tho next year planted it in cotton. That -where the cow-yen was did not.rust, and made a fine crop.

Tho great remedies for rust are the spade, clay scattered over, rotation of1 crops, rest, and heavy manuring. These remedies arc sure. DAVJD DICKSON. Sparta, Go. SCHOOL NOTICE.
