Siz,—The season is now approaching \when every thoughtful farmer will try to ‘solve the problem of how to obtain the ‘necessary plant food or manure for the wants of hiscrop. Barnyard manure and ‘maussel mud are of course our main reliaxce So far, in this Province, but there can be no doubt that commercial manures must in the near future play a most important part in our agricultural operations. Artificial ,manures have had no fair trial in this island, because the articles hitherto offered ,to our farmers have, in inany cases, been of inferior quality, and always sold far above their fair market value. The Fertilizers Act of 1885 requires that _Saniples of all manures offered for sale at a | higher price than $10 per ton shall, during the month of January in each year, be sent for analysis to the Inland Revenue Depart- ment, Ottawa, and that any manufacturer jor vendor whois found during the year )seliing a Fertilzer inferior to the samples, ‘shall be liable to severe penalties. This is ‘good so far as it goes, but unserupulous ‘manufacturers can easily impose on farm- ers, because the latter are unable to deter- {mine fromthe analysis what isthe real j Value of the manure. I hope the following observations will _ be found to assist farmers in making their purchases. All fertilizers are valuable in proportion _to the quantities of phosphates, potash and ammonia which they contain. No other material is;worth taking into account in a | manure custing over $10 per ton. ; The market standard in Great Britain for ‘phosphatic manures is the amount of solu- }ble phosphate which they contain. In | America the market standard is the amount :of soluble phosphoric acid. To # chemist jthese are merely different ways of saying {the same thing. Soluble phosphate stands ta soluble phosphoric acid as 100 does to ,45.95. Consequently ‘which has 35 per cent. soluble phosphate has 16 per cent. soluble phosphoric acid. Every honest guarantee of analysis should astute plainiy what per centage of soluble phosphoric acid or soluble phosphate, as well as what per centage of ammonia and potash are contained inthe manure de- scribed. Where the phosphate in a fertilizer is given as ‘*bone phosphate,” it looks like an attempt to evade a realtest. Bone Phosphate may be intended to meantribasie phosphate of, lime as it exists in ground done, or in partially dissolved rock or bone it may include phosphoric aeid altogether insuluble (which is useless) or in a reverted form. The latter has a lower value than what. is soluble in water. English market standards, reverted phos- phates have no value assigned them. | Allowinga reasonable margin for mani- | Pulation and profit the following may be) given as fair prices for the ingredients in commercial fertilizers for the present year: } | | i Soluble Phosphoric Acid....., 8c. per ib, MIR Se 5 chicas oa cose iMate WS Sine in i eS eee a." Take for example 2 manure containing by analysis 2 per cent. atamonia, 6 per cent soluble phosphoric acid and 3 per cent. potash, the following computation will show its real contents and value per ton : 40 ibs. ammonia at 18 cts per Ib........ $7.20 120 lbs. soluble phosphoric acid at 8 cts. DOT. teres peebdbeteleniens coose OOO GO lbs. potash at 45 cts, per lb.......... 2.7 $19.50 This calculation is based on the assump- tion that all the materials used are of the best quality, such as sulphate of ammonia, bone or mineral super phosphate and sul- phate of potash. When ammonia is ob- tained from shoddy, hair or fish scrap, it is less valuable. It is no uncommon thing for manures with no better showing on al- alysis than the above, io be sold for $40 per ton. Farmers should join together and pur- chase the ingredients for their fertilizers aud mix them for themselves. I have tor the last. three years imported ammonia, superphosphate and potash separately, and mixed them to suit my soil and crops with the best results. The prices of these ma- terials are as well understood and_ estah- lished in farming circles in Great Britain, as are the prices of wheat, cats or potatoes. Every farmer should write to the Inland Revenue Department at Ottawa, and ob- tain a copy of Bulletin No. 4, issued by that department in April last, in which the results of the public analysis lor the year 1888 are given. The Bulletin for the pre- sent year will probably be ready in a few days. With the aid of the figures given above it will be quite easy tv determine whether the price asked for any particular manure is afair one. It will be noticed that the manufacturer gets the benefit of the doubt, in these bulletins, as reverted phosphoric acid is included with that which is soluble in water and classed as available. Should any person Jobject that prices given in this letter are lower than those for which these articles actually sell in the British markets—let this be my answer : I will undertake to obtain for any farmer who will hand me the cash on or before the lith imst., any of the above materials by the ton, or aton made up in the proper proportion of each material and guara that the prices, landed in Charlottetown, | all charges shall not exceed the} niee paid, figures, per |b., given above. lam, yours, &c., D.

The choir gave some very choice selee- tions, which were exceedingly well rendered. The whole affair was a grand success— everything passed off pleasantly. We trust that we may have many more such ineetings from our lady friends. The collections taken up amounted to $15.60, Although the travelling was very bad, the church was so full that many of the audience had to stand. But we were all well paid for our attend- ance. At the close a unanimous vote ot thanks was tendered the ladies for the way in which they had entertained us. The meeting ciosed by che audience singing the Doxology and the pronouncing of the Bene- diction by the pastor. REPORTER.
