Capt. 7. i. Vail has .ju returned from a
visit to Columbus county and brought back
with him a sample of shell mari which he
proposes to send to the State chemist for
analysis to test its fertilizing properties.
Capt. Vail is Of the opinion that this mari
can be used by farmers in this section of the
State to great advantage, should it prove
as strong a fertilizer as he anticipates. His
idea is to use it with the acid phosphate
instead of using cotton seed. Large bodies
Of it are found near Robeson's station on the
Carolina Central Railway, and it has been
used by the farmers there with great success.
Capt. Vail says it can be gotten out and de-
livered to the depot at the rate of % cents
per barrel, THU showing that the cost of
transporting into this section will be very
light. Charlotte Obscrcer.
Great quantities of mari exist all over the
Eastern counties. We have received MANY
letters asking if it would pay to ship. Prof.
Kerr is Of opinion that only the very best
quality can be profitably handled beyond
,wagoning distance. Many farmers will not
haul it a couple of miles. Occasionally a
man Injuries his land by using too much of
it. Mr.. w. ID. Jones showed us a letter
from DIR. Arlington, of Goldsboro. offering
TO ship any quantity, put up in sacks, at 50
per ton, which seemed extremely low to our
notion.
