To the Editor Of the "St. Croix Avis"
(To be ~continued.)
Dear Sir |!


Here am again troubling you for a little space
in your valuable columns, which l trust you will
grant me, as it regards a subject of great import
anoe to the island, and one touched upon already
in your late issues, namely that of Poudrete.
There is a vast quantity of the substances re-
quired for the composition of that article, or rath-
er precious manure, actually thrown away and
willfully wasted in the course of each year; if we
could form a correct estimate of the amount of
moneys worth, so carelessly wasted by our want
of enterprise, it would no doubt appear exaggera-
ted.
Poudrette faithfully and honestly prepared or
compounded is very much wanted Or needed by
our Planters; there can be no difference of opin-
ion on that scores as we all know that last year
there was a very large sum of money paid out of
the Island for Guano, a Manure inferior to P0udret-
te which can in future be avoided, if our Govern
ment and Planters would only take an other step
in the right direction and look to their joint inter
ests.
There is a person here on the spot who can pre-
pare a very superior Poudrete, containing nearly
twice as much nitrogen as that produced by Bel
loni he has in his possession an excellent method
of drying and concentrating night-soI, and is
quite ready and willing to undertake the prepara-
ton of all the night-sotk, of both towns as we'll as
all the Estates in this Island. SO as to- effectively
preserve all its ammonia and useful constituents,
and at the same time to present it in the form of
a dry inodorous powder; provided he can, on the
one hand obtain q patent from our Government,
and on the other, proper support from the Plant
ers.
The fact that the carrying out of the above
idea, would in itself conduce to a clearly, and con-
sequently more healthy, state of things, should in
itself be an inducement to secure not only the pa
, 1872-07-24

tent but also the patronage of the town people
but, of course, the chief object is to obtain a good
and approved Manure, SO essential to agricultu-
raj progress, which ought to have some weight
with our planters. With regard to the. value, of
the article, (Poudrette(, I beg to offer tho follow
ing remarks: The principal interest attaches to the
ammonical salts which 1t contains, of which the
Sutphdte is the only one that has hitherto found it's
way into the manure markets sufficiently pure, and at
the same time cheap enough to admit Ct its being
applied to the land. In some large towns sulphate OF
ammonia is prepared from urine. The urine is col
lected, acidulated, allowed to p%utrefy and then TO eva
porate; a large portion Of the saline mass thus OBJ
tanned, consists of Sulphate of Ammonia but there are
also present all the fixed salts of the urine. Weight
for weight it is much more valuable than the pure
Sulphate of Ammonia. a.
Ammonidcal salts have been proved in all recent
experiments to be the most active of saline manures.
Il is to the ammonia of the cir that plants, especially
those of tropical countries, (such as the sugar-cane)
are chiefly indebted for their Nitrogen ammonia is
always present in rain water, although its amount
varies considerably, according to various Giro umstan-
ces it is decomposed with great facility. During the
decay Of plants, and particularly of animal bodies and
n1ght soil, ammonia is evolved, and thus the supply
is kept up it is also evolved in considera Bile quantity
from the interior of the earth in volcanic districts.
SuLphGte Of ammonia is not at all c~apricious in
regard to soils it has a great tendency to increase
the bulk of the sugar cane, and gives Uetghtaer and
better c0L0ured sugar than any ordinary fertilizer es-
pecially the Sulphdte of Ammonia contained in good
honestly prepared Poudrette, made with the excre-
ments Of man, which contains tlco portions OF Carbon
to one of Nitrogen, and consequently is among the
very best fertilizing matters. Nitrogen is given off
from Manures in the form Of ammonia, a compound
of Nitrogen and Hydrogen. BerseIius'S analysis of
