The following, from the Southern
Planter, contains so much sound, prac-
tical coed sense, that we copy it in
the hope that our agricultural readers
will study and adopt its philosophy:


1nthe preceding volume ofthis work,
page l34, there is very interesting
article on the propriety ofusing liquid
manures for purposes Of horticulture;
solution of SCOT and water is therein
recommended, in the proportion Of
six quarts Of the former to a hogshead
Of the latter. This mixture has been
found to exercise most salutary inr
fluence on peas, asparagus and vari.
ETY. Of other vegetables to which it has
been applied. We do no doubt the
fact stated, and would here observe
that the soap suds which is made in a
farmers family, whichis mostly thrown
away, is one Of the most effect.
i've manures that can can be applied
to vegetables and flowers of all kinds
From an experience Of several years,
we can testify 10 its vigorating effects
and recommend its use with conf
dence. There ore but few families
anywise extensive, who do not make
a sufficient quantity Of this article, in
the course of the year, to keep gar
den Of tolerable size, not only in good
condition, but rich enough TO secure
crops of vegetables.
