COMMERCIAL MANURE.

A serious hindrance in the way of the
successful use of commercial manures in
this country lies in the ignorance Of the
consumers about them. Many If not most
farmers have no better idea of what they
ought to get for a good superphosphate.
or guanO, or potash salt, than a little child
has of what good Oolong tea or real Old
Government Java is; and as the average
grocer would be likely to take advantage
OF such ignorance in regard to the quality
Of his wares, and furnish third-rate tea
and coffee at first rate prices, to the mutual
satisfaction ot both parties, so the average
dealer in commercial manures will, when
he feels that it is safe TO do so, supply
farmers with second or third-rate manures
at high prices; and, unhappily for real
agricultural progress, to the satisfaction
of the farmer as well as of himself. Now
farmers do not pursue the same course in
respect to their other dealings; they do
not buy horses or land, or stock, without
exercising some judgment in regard to
the quality of their purchases, or at least
pretending to be able to do so. If thev
buy without judgment they are soon
brought to realizing sense Of their folly.
Over $4,000 tons of Peruvian guano are
consumed annually in this country; more
than hundred thousand tons of super
phosphate are consumed every year along
the seaboard States alone. Itsis reported
that the State of Georgia laid out $40. .0O0.-
600 in commercial fertilizers in 1873. 1t
is evident from these few isolated facts
that the annual trade in commercial man
ures throughout the whole country must
be measured by millions of dollars. There
are some good reasons for believing that
the consumers of these manures do not.
at least in great many cases, get the best
that manufacturers and dealers can really
afford to give them for the prices paid
The assertion has been made by those who
pretend to know that superphosphates OF
a much better quality than those in our
markets could be supplied at lower rates
than those now charged. while still allow
ing handsome profit to the manufacturers.
But leaving this out. of consideration,
there is no doubt that large share of the
dealing in commercial manures is not
what it ought to be, and not what it would
be If farmers took more care to inform
themselves as to the quality of what they
buy. They are cheated simply because
they know no better, and they will be
cheated as long as they will thus allow it
they will not get goods OF better quality
till they demand them, and back their de-
mand with reasonable care to protect them
selves from frauds. S. CdldGeU ia Ne,o
