If they are taken strictly accord ing to our printed forms, Which mast be obtained. : , . 2. If they are of sufficient public Interest. ' 8. If the station is free to publish theresults.',',; Rome of the facts observed and re sults accomplliihed, we note briefly. The average composition of am moniated superphosphates with pot ash show with some slight fluctations a marked Inaprovement over that of former years. As to the cost Of these fertilisers the change lias been more decided.'. In 1877. when the station was established, the average cash price of the ammoulated fertilizer was 843.50 per ton. . The same fer tilizer In 1888 could be bought for $27.50- reduction In price of $16.00 per ton. It is not claimed that the station was the sole cause of this- re duction, but that by a judicious con trol of the trade In renewing confi dence between the "dealers and cori sumers in the prevention of frauds In producing healthy competition, it aided largely towards this end. : There has been a large increase in the number of brands of fertilizers in the three states of Virginia,North Carolina and. South Carolina.--In North Carolina alone, the number of brands made In the state increased from 6.83 in 1880 to 16.43 in 1888, in proportion to the whole number sold n the state. . Here the, 'increase is nearly three-fold. What does this chnnge foretell?. Considering the number of brands as indicative of the amount sold, which can safely be said, sinco the conditions for the various years have remained unal tered, these figures prove almost con cluslvely that the home manufactur ers are gradually driving the other more distant competitors from the field: that the, distance from the nmtrceof supply .ofthe. various Jin gradients, and from the high freights which these fertilizers must pay to reach a market,' are proving each year to be a more effectual barrier (o their entering the state In a commer cial point of view. Taking our own state and the two adjoining, It is plainly, seen' that the three, while they controlled one-third of the trade eight years ago, now control one-half. North Carolina, alone, 'eight years ago, controlled only one-Mxteentn, now controls one-elxtb. - With this increase, and there Is now no reason why it should not continue, it la not hazardous to assert that in ten yean, one-half of tho commercial fertilizers sold In North Carolina will 'bo made In North Carolina. " 1 'The operations of the experiment farm are among the, most interesting and Important brandies of the sta tlon's work. Numerous field expert ments have been made with various crops under different conditions of soil,mftnnrlng,cultivatipn,etc When the results of these experiments arc published in full, they must prove of great importance to the farmers, But little has been done In the way of .feeding and dairy experiments, though" extensive preparations have been made for pursiing this branch oi famine. A substantial stable for experimental purposes has been erect ed on the latest pattern to suit this climate, In which arrangements are being mnde to accommodate ensilage experiment, as well as the expert ments In reference to the digestion of certain forage plants, and value as foods In the yield of milk and butter.

The Boston Herald prints a four column letter from General Butler, In which be produces fact andoffidal reports for the purpose of proving his charges of cowariice against Ad miral Porter during, the seige of New Orleans, which charges were made in a public speech In this city last May, and have been the subject of much controversy between tho two princi pals. . : .. , - General Butler says: .-.U ; - The sole question between myself and Porter ls,dll he or his flagship and the rest of thomortaf "fleet sail away from the neighborhood of the forts where they were sdttioned by Farragut, down to the head of the passes, or out to sea, and remain there for a considerable time till Por ter believe it safe to return to the forts f Admiral ; Porter has been quoted as saying that one officer did run away, but that he would not give his name. There was no officer who ran away save Porter or those ur. der his orders. T charged a ''high officer," and there was no such' one there who could run away other than Porter i himself, ' so vhe well - knew whom I meant A To Porter's statement that he had a letter from Gideon Welles thank ing him for his efforts and saying that but for his (Porter's) exertions Farragut could not have Captured New Orleans, Gen. Butler says f ? To make Welles letter an answer to the charge of your running down to the passes seems a very lame ex cuse. First.Because Welles was not there and did not know anything about the matter, except what ypu wrote him; . " ' Second, Because that letter was only drawn ont by and founded upon your own false and bombastic report written and dispatched while yon were at Pilot Town on the 25th of April. ' General Butler asks why the fact that this report was written ' twenty- five miles down the river away from the forts was concealed from official reports to prove that this was the fact "The fact Is," says the general, 'that Instead of aiding in the capture of the city, yon were the only obsta cle In the way of the capture of New Orleans as It was captured." ' After commenting in his caustic manner upon' matters of a per sonal nature, brought out in Inter views between Admiral Porter and Washington reporters, General But ler says s 1 fear that I have done you what you could not do for yourself Im mortaHze you ; for I have given your name to boasting, vain glorious, calumnatory lie. Hereafter forever it shall be called "porter." " , He-says In conclusion : L 2 shall never refer to these matters in any future newspaper article, but you have another incident in your career, which, if my good health and pleasuie still exist, I may feel it my duty to bring to the attention of ;the country, in order that the people may learn another phase of your character more"doeply dyed with cowardice and falsehood than the two which I have now considered.
