SALT IN RURAL ECO.VOMY. 



The importaiirc of salt lo anitiiuls is so gene- 

 rally a<linitted, that 1 shall not here dwell at great 

 leiiglli upon it. When animals arc in a wild slate, 

 it is observed, lliat at certain periods of the year 

 they seek the salt water or salt spring inland wiili 

 avidily ; ami every fanner observes lliat his cattle, 

 horses, &c, ara remarkably fond of licking the 

 salt earth of the farm-yard, stables, &c. In Spain, 

 they give their sheep salt with great regularity, 

 1 12 lbs. in five mouths to one thousand sheep ; as 

 such, 1 fearlessly assert, that ihe iinportanrc of 

 salt for callle is iiicontroveriibly tslablished, how- 

 ever impcrfeclly it may be jiractiscd. i subjoin 

 the statement of Mr Curwen, M. I*, for Cumbei'- 

 land. lie employed salt to his live stock daily 

 for years: — for horse.*, he gives 6 oz. per d.iy; 

 milch cows, 4 oz. ; feeding o.xen, 6 oz. ; yearlings, 

 3 oz. ; calves, 1 oz. ; sheep, 2 to 4 oz. per week 

 — if on dry pastures ; but if they are feeding on 

 turnips or coles, then they should have it without 

 Htinl. Some give it lo live stock on a slate or 

 stone — some lay lumps of it in the cribs or man- 

 gers. It is a fact indispniably proved, that if 

 sheep arc allowed free access to salt, they will 

 never bo subject lo the disease called the rot. Is 

 not this a fact worthy of the farmer's earliest, most 

 zealous attention ^ Some recent ex|)criiiient3 al- 

 so leail me even to hope that I shall one day or 

 other be able to prove it to be a cure for this de- 

 vasl.-iting disease. 1 have room but for one fact 

 Mr Rusher, of Stanley Gloucestershire, in the au- 

 tumn of 1828, piirchasod, for a mere trifle, twenty 

 nhecp ; decidedly rotten, and gave each of them 

 for some weeks, an ounce of salt every morning. 

 Two only died during the winter; and the siirvi- 

 viiift eighteen were cured, and have now (says 



my informant) ' lambs by ihcir .sides.' Mr. 



Bulcher, now of Brook Hall, Essex, for years cm- 

 ployed salt for his callle and sheep, on his farm 

 nearBiirnham, in Norfolk. One of the fields was 

 BO very unfavorable for sheep, that before he used

 iheir full growth. One now measures near eight

 and a half feet in length. They are of the same 

 breed, Mr Tompkins informs us, that he annually 

 rears — small boued and easily fatted. — Buffalo

Manvfaclurt of Salt in Ohio. — In Muskingum 

 there are 20 wells now in operation, yii-!dina 

 160,000 bushels per annum ; and in Morgan, 7 

 wells now yielding 2,.500 bushels jier week, or 

 1.30,000 bushels yearly. Add to this the probable 

 increase in 1830, and wo have an aggregate of 

 500,000 bushels. This is estimated to be worth 

 at the works, an average of 37i cents per bushel, 

 amounting to $187,500 ; which is the annual value 

 of the suit manufactured in Morgan and Muskin- 

 gum counties. — Ohio Rrpttblican.
