to u by a geatieman ol this town.
" I have great pleasure ia being able to give a
most satisfactory report ol tue .eSect of Mr.
Curweri'a experiments, as to the use of salt for
all Ri lids of caitie. He has just received a report
t'ruiu his feeder, dated February 3, IS 18, which
is as follows :
fhe following is a correct statement of youc
experiments, i it giving salt to the' cattle under
iny care, bcgi;iing. November 10, 1817 Prom
that time tilt now, your cattle, have had salt as
br?lovr; foity cows and breeding heifers have
had each four ounces per dayj forty three young
and fat cattle, each three ounces ; eighteen
wonting oxen,, 'eacft( lour ounces j twenty one
heifers and oxen of one year old; each two oun
ces twenty young calves, one ounce each ; and
each horse employed at the farm, colliery, &c.
nas nau iour ounces per iay. tour hundred
and forty-four sheep have had fourstone.oi two
ounces each per week, given at twice and on
slates, l ne advantage t salt lor sheep appears
to be great, as we have had none died since
we commenced giving salt In other years we
l ist some of our youiij ewes and. wethers, in
wliat we call the sickness. Our cow, &c. have
their salt given in steamed chatf, twice a day,
which makes thenat it up, as well as other
inferior food. The horses have their salt ffivan
amongst . their steamed potatoes, twice a day :
wnich makes thejen clean out their cribs, and is
a great benefit to their health and condition.
Uur cattle have been in the highest health ever
since we eouiuien.ced the use of salt. I have
now kept your cattle lor ten yeuia and thev
were nsn-er so long without some sickness j they
lvcie. loiuieijf suujcui to ooairuciions, luiiatnnia
-.... V, 11
nous, o.o. i nave uui uau occasion to use any
medicine since Uie zvthvol November last ; and
I can now show 125 head of cattle, without the
exception ol any -one animal that is outof order.
1 believe there is nothing that will promote the
health of cattle and their good condition more
tuau salt, when rightly administered."
' it will appear by this report that the njanti
ty ol salt which Mr. Curwen ha?, given to his
cattle, with the most complete suecesf. is more
tliau double what lovd So nerville used. The
use of tliects of this salt in Mr. Cur wen's farm

farmers tor many miles round ; and hundreds of
them have come to see the cattle fed. Seveial
of them have applied to Mr. Curwen for some of
his salt for their own cattle ; but the severity, of
the conditions, aud the amount of the penalties,
have prevented him from . being able to accom
modate them. The neighboring farmers have
uuited in a petition to the house of commons,
which was presented yesterday : statins that
they are prevented from availing themselves of
tne permission to use salt (or cattle fart anted hv
the late act of parliament) by the heaviness of

which u is cioggea, ana oy tne personal attend
ance (in their case not less than one hundred
and twenty miles to Liverpool) to sign the bonds
and securities required by the net (and praying
relief, etc.. It should be observed, that Mr.
Curwen is also using salt mixed with steamed
potatoes, &c for hia hogs and poultry, with the
ne good efi'ecis ' j but ' they not being under
tne care of. William Glover are apt mentioned
