from reccnet address by Dr.. E, p;
Philpots before the British medical
association.r and indorsed by one
Of the English naturalists.
There are two forms Of clnine
rabies, only one Of which is com,
municable to man. This form is
called hydrophobia, and Is always
fatal. to animal and man. It 10
very rare at all times, and actually
less frequent in warm weather than
ia cold, 90 that il We are going to
muzzle our dogs for hydrophobis,
we had better DO 1t in winter than
in summer. The degree of this
rarity may be judged from the fact
that . very few physicians, even
Of long experience, can recall q sin.
gle instance Of . person dying from
tue hy,irophobia. A man is a5out
tenth as likely to die this way

So

Il gentle fermentation; the earth lntermIXed with and
covering the dung, will absorb the juices and gaseous
matters produced, and the compost come out in a fine
state of preparation for using on the lands" Such
are the SQUAD directions given by a practical man, for
the management of manure heaps they are strictly in
accordance with the views Ofscientifc men, as | hope
they have been clearly set forth In these pages. Now
pray conn pare our practice with these scientific views
these practical directions. / fear the result will not
be fattering. / do not say that we do not take great
pains in making up our manure, but what ] say is, that
in making it up we are not sufficiently aware of the
Importance of preserving the gaseous and liquid parts
and consequently do not bestow sufficient pains on
that part of the matter and that in our subsequent
use of our manure, we utterly ~dissipate all these valua-
BILE matters, and reduce the value of our manure by at
least Onehalf. / need not observe, that OY adopting
plans similar to those above quoted, the dung may be
SO far termented IN the heaps as not TO ferment after
wards in the ground SO as TO produce that heat which
is said to be detrimental, whilst the gaseous matters
resulting from the fermentation in the heaps, and
chiefly the ammonia is caught in its effort to escape,
and made TO assume ne1o forms which are not volatile,
andi in which it affords most valuable food to plants.
Here is similar case A man has a bushel of clean
-four spread outno his table, but the wind blows away
all the finest parts OF it, and leaves him nothing but
the coarse part for the food of himself and his fami-
ly;-they suffer in consequence; they get less bread,
and of inferior quality ;-what must he do ? why take
care to knead his flour up into bread by little and lit
tie, SO as not to allow any of it to be wasted his
bread would be more in quantity and far more nutriti-
Gus. The case it Just the same with our manure.
But it is time that | should observe, that besides the
ordinary methods already mentioned of arresting the
gaseous parts of manure, there are others OF a more
purely scientific nature, though now often practlsed
upon a large scale. Amongst these we may mention

The addition of gypsum or sulphate Of lime, suIphate
OfirOn, the chloride of calcium, |sulphurc or murlalc
acids, and super-phOSphate of lime; substances Of
low price, and which, if added to manure, and espe-
CialIy LIQUID manure, the ammonia would be converted
into salts, which would have no further tendency to
volatiIize, as have pure ammonia, or ammonia in COM
bination with carbonic acid. By the use of gypsum
and |sulphuric acid, two solid substances have been OBJ
tanned from urine, and brought into the markets at
prices high in proportion to their concentration eXpen-
siveness, and high-pretensions-they are called Urate
and ~suIphated Urine. Experiments have proved them
10 be highly active and valuable fertilizers indeed,
Professor Johnston says that % the s~ulphated urine
may be expected successfully to compete with guano,
even at its present high price and if, as we may ex-
peCt, this artificial powder should be materially low
cred in price, it is likely to come into extensive
use. "# Let il be observed, however, that these high
priced articles of manure are adapted only for the use
of those who have no means of creating a suficiency
of manure on their own farms, as is the case with
mo st English farmers, few Of whom have occasion to
keep more than half-a-dozen horses, and from half-a-
dozen to a dozen COWS. To make their farms prOhta-
BILE, they must purchase some sort of manure and the
question with them is, whether it be better to pur-
chase stable manure at Is. ed. or IS. cd. a-load, or some
Concentrated but high priced article. 1t must not for a
moment be supposed that it will ever answer for per-
sons situated as we are, compelled to Keep a large num-
Der Of cattle TO do the a0Ork Of our estates, to neglect to
= In his Elements, however, the Professor says, " This urate
never can possess the virtues of the urine, since it does not con-
tam the soluble saline substances 100 lbs. of urate contain
no more saline or organic matter than 10 gallons of urine. fit
for an acre, the practical farmer will, [ hope, draw the conclu-
sion that i will be a better speculation to go to some expense
IN saving his own liquid manure, and after mixing it with burn
ed gypsum, to lay it %abundantly on bis fields.
