THE VALUE OF MUCK.

Ma. EpIroR II hope my brother farmers will
remember That there Is perhaps no substance
known st present, that is more valuable to the
farmer ~ q substitute tor manure than Muck
The principal reason Why it has not already been
irtrod lced into universal favor, is the want OF
knowledge manifested by many who have used
il. and tie erroneous sapp6stiOn admitted by
many that it is in tit state to apply to the soil
Just Is il is taken from the bog. l have, indeed,
kaown several farmers to haul out and spread on
their aTao.e lands large Quantities of cold, sour
muck, and because II produced harmful rather
that beneficial effects, decry it as a worthless ar.
scle, aud lot OF any advantage either to the soil
or crop. Every person should be aware that
muck Is, naturally sour, or acid, as it is called by
chemists, and 70 destroy or neutralze this ungen.
iAl principle vi acidity, is the man thing tn he
attended " in preparing it to be applied as ma.
