Agriculture of JS'orth-Curolina,
Lf.YTKR 111. Ci Y Pil'U
To CUrlrt Fisher, esq Secretary ot the Row
an Agricultural Society.
Sir ? li> enumerating those substan
ces which the mtneial kingdom afloids
to agriculture and the ars, the substance
w .uh d< serves our at c< i> n next to
iron, is G vpslm or Plasteu of fa his.
So surprising have been its eff< els as a
manures in certain parts of our country,
that whole districts have been feuilized
and greatly cnriched by it; and the in
trinsic value of estates have been great
ly enhanced by the discovery of a ht j oi
jt in '.he virini'y New K<rk is so lortu
naie a3 to have great quantities of this
arti< k within its own limits; and, since
much of it lus near the grea- ta al.it
may be easily distributed over that state,
or sent to other countries. Gypsum is
abundantly used in most ot the eustern
states. It is chiefly obtained from Nova
Scotia, no extensive bed of it having yet
been discoveied in New England. So
usetul has it proved on some of the
lands in the interior of those states, that
the farmers have found their interest in
transporting it thiny or forty miles, and
frequently to a still greatt^ distance over
land.
In Virginia, it is said to have been us
ed with most admirable t fleet; and it ij
reported, that some < t the upper coun
ties have b< en greatly benefited by the
discovery ot a bed of it near the Abing
don Salt Works.? In the western slates,
gypsum is found in such abundance, as
to constitute no small part of the native
riches ot that seeti-m of the Unicn.
The loudest encomiums have reach
ed us trom the north, respecting its utit ?
ity there, and the opinion of its talue as
a manure, seems to be the same in Vir
ginia. The following testimony to this
effect, is given in Taylor's Arator, ua
authority generally respected among
our farmers. " The immediate benefit
of gypsum to Indian corn (says this wri
ter) is vastly greater than to any other
ciop, except clover, whilst its btntfu to
the land is equally great. Unplasttred
spaces left at russ large fields of rlover,
have, in sundry instances, produced a
ihild or fourth only of the adjoining
plastered clover. Unplastercd spaces
across large fields of coin, have been
frequently visible during the whole crop,
producing, not an equal, but a considera
ble difTcience. Gypsum, clover, and in
closing, in conjunction, have, within my
own knowledge, doubled, trebled, ai.d,
in a veiy favorable soil, quadrupled the
value of land, in the space of twelve or
fifteen years, whilst the land regularly
produced two exhausting crops, those
of corn and wheat, in every four years of
the period; and these crops w ere contin
ually increasing."
manures, no doubt, are the Food of
land, a* the productions of the land itself
are the food ot animals. Both alike Ian*
guish without their respective aliments.
To restore to laud under cultivation, an
equivalent for the amount of exhaustion
which each crop occasions, is the way
to preserve it from wearing out forever;
and if the food thus supplied, exceeds
the loss ot strength induced by cropping
from year to year, land will obviously
giow more and more fertile the longer
it is cultivated. Hence, the economy of
manurr? and their judicious application,
are probably to be regarded as the most
important subjects that can be present*
ej before the farmer. Every particle of
manure saved, ? elps to form a sinking
fund to cancel those la'ge drafts, which
