LISTER AGRICULTURAL WORKS,
The official analysis published la the .'Bulletin" fr this month was to difierent from tbe
various analjtieal testa made for our own guidance, that we considered it necessary t examine
into the matter, and now publish the resulta obtalaed from a sample received irom onr
A genu in Ka'eigh, in advance of tha retest promised us by Dr. Dibhey,
Messrs. N orris 4fe Bro. wrote under dat of Marrh 1st : The inspector drew sample from
PtapscA today for analysis. e kept half of it. Would you like us to tend this to some one
e'se for analysis t"
We directed tbe sample to be sealed and seat here by express, and on arrival handed it over
re Lehmaan ft Miger, bemisti of thia city, for aoalyata, with the following resulta:

We would have preferred to await the retet by the Department, but the use nude ot the un
favorable report by agents of rival ai tides, and thia being the active aellimr season rendered,
prompt action imperative.
