“Salt has long since tae used as a manure, and various 
accounts are before the public, of the success attending it. 
Flax oe is greatly benefitted by a slight ay: 
Me 
I have (in this early part of the season,) spread salt in 
the way, and in the quantities mentioned by Mr. Redd, on 
every species of crop, both grass and grain. We have had 
an unfavourable spring owing to a long drought. I have per-> 
ceived no effect, good or bad, from all or any of the applica- 
tions of salt. On my wheat I had some ¢ appearance of bene~ 
fit, but it was not decidedly clear. So that if it succeeds 
with others, IT have my usual bad luck. It is my intention 
to repeat the experiment.
