KILLING GRASS AND BUYING
lIAY.-It is little singular that a
people engaged actively for half
the year in killing grass cannot
grow grass enough to feed their
stock. .r'he mistake has been in
trying experiments, in futile ef-
forts to make foreign grasses whip
cut the natives. Ifa little Of the
pains taken to grow cotton was used
to make crab grass meadows or Sc
cure swamp grass, VIC conld have
an abundance of forage. Amy
piece of upland that will grow
twelve or fifteen bushels of corn
per acre ploughed up and borrow
ed in April, will yield more mon
ev value for the labor bestowed than
in any other crop.

MARCH.
ACEDPM0SPHATE AND COT.
TON SEED COMPOST.

Believing phosphate of lime in
a soluble form, combined with a
certain amount Of ammonia to be
the best commercial fertilizer we
could use, I have been for q number
ofyears making the pure dissolved
bone the basis of the fertilizers
used by me. and when the articles
have been pure, they have given
me entire satisfaction.
In noticing the analysis of the
Charleston phosphates given by
Prof. Holmes, and others, I found
those phcsphates give as great a
percentage, and in some cases
greater than pure bone. l conclu-
dcd therefore to try them ia place
of the dissolved bone, and after
three years experience, I am con-
yinced that they are as good if not
better than the dissolved bone, OBJ
tained by US from the North; they
are pure, free from dirt, charcoal,
plaster, &C., &c., and cost seven
teen dollars per ton less.
As I have been frequently ask
ed to give my mode Of composing,
using, &c., I will give it through
the columns Of your valuable jour-
nal.
First, in composing with cotton
seed, my experience leads me to
believe that seven bushels, or two
hundred and ten pounds cotton
seed, to one hundred pounds acid
phosphate, is about the right pro-
portisn of each. TO compost, lay
down FIVE boards, 20 feet long,
with one board on each side, edge
ways with stakes driven to hold
them firmly. Now we have some
. thing like the bricklayers mortar
mixing board. Il should be near
water. Measure Or weigh fourteen
bushels of cotton seed and place on
the boards wet them we'll with
water, stirring them with hoes,
then empty on them one sack,
or two hundred pounds of the acid
phosphate mix we'll with hoes, u.s.
ing more water if necessary. We
have now six hundred pounds, q
fair amount of manure for one acre.
Have close pen to throw it in
and repeat as often as required un-
til enough has been composted,
then cover over to shield from ex'
tensive rains; in about six geeks
it will be ready for use. This is
one of the very best and cheapest
fertilizers now known and in use.
It will invariably give satisfaction
when properly manipulated and
the preparation and cultivation
good. The quantity per acre can
be incrc sed or diminished at pleas.
ure ; it can also be used by open,
ing furroNs carly in February,
d;illins in the same the cotton
secd and sowing acid phosphate on
= seed and tapping one furrow. Or
take two hundred pounds acid phos,
phate, one hundred pounds Peruvian
guano, mix well, apply to one acre.
This has given me satisfaction,
yielding equal to compost Of cotton
seed and acid phosphate.
/ believe 4 greater quantity OF
cotton seed than given in the above
formula, is q waste of ammonia
If an increase is desired, then in
crease the acid phosphate in like
manner.

and proprietor in the Union is said
to be } Young Soammon, OF the Chi.
cago Inter Ocean lie is supposed to
be worth tour or five millions, but he
did not make any OF it III journalism.
The proprietor OF the Baltimore
Sm-Mr. Abcl---is said to be worth
some scvca millions OF dollars. The
property l"it to young Bennett, OF
the New York Usrad, made by his
father III the newspaper business,
must be worth three or four millions
of dollars. ChIds, of the PhiIadel.
pha Ledger, is probably worth two
millions. Swain, OF the Philadelphia
Record, the publication of which was
commenced some ten years ago, is
worth about amiliion dollars, all
made by his father in the publication
OF the Philadelphia Lsdyer. Some OF
the proprietors OF tho Chicago If!-
bune arc wealthy The propr.etors
Of the Nssourt Republican arc also
wealthy. The Inter Ocean, owned by
J. Young Scamalon. was originally
started Ivy Mr.. Dana. of the New
York Sun. The journal, from first
to last, probably sunk half a million
dollars, and the Inter Ocean is still q
living concern. Mr.. Dana aud his
i,iends lost in it's publication largo
sum OF money; but this gentleman
has since become wca!ty by the publ
cation OF tho New York San. Old
journals, when we'll managed, are
generally profitable; bat it takes
long time Tor new journal to reach
q paying basis. Tho Inter Ocean. in
competition with such a newspaper
as tho Chicago Tribune, may be ex-
pccted TO spend a large sum OF money
before it pays expenses.
