■who are situated near the sea, should lose no time in sa- 

 tisfying themselves of the beneficial effefts that may- 

 arise by a proper use and application of salt water to 

 dung heaps, compost mixens, and to other purposes : 

 it would be highly praise worthy, were some intelligent 

 persons, after carefully making such trials, to publish the 

 result of their experiments for the information of 

 others. 



Should the advantages attendant on the application 

 of salt water, induce its being generally made use 

 of near the sea coast, there can be little doubt that 

 cheap methods would soon be devised, for conveying 

 from many places salt, or sea water, to very considerable 

 distances. 



Every plan or method whereby a greater quantity of 

 dung may be made, should be carefully attended to. A 

 considerable increase in the quantity of that article, as 

 well as an oeconomical savins, and benefit in other re- 

 spccts, will arise by feeding the working horses, and^ 

 perhaps part of the neat cattle of a farm with 



clover.
