With them words will be things; for no Government will venture to resist their deliberate and united appeals. But let not the farmers, or the friends of the farmers, de- ceive themselves. When all that can be desired in this way shall have been accomplished ; when Government shall have done its whole duty in regard to agricultural statistics and agricultural science ; when the products of every State and of every district in the Union shall have been put in the way of exact and periodical ascer...tainment; when the American soil shall have been everywhere analyzed, and when those who till it shall have been everywhere instruct- ed in its peculiar adaptations, and its peculiar properties, and its peculiar wants ; when the whole vegetable and animal and mineral kingdoms shall have been raked and ransacked for the cheapest and most accessible and most effective fertilizers ; when some safe and convenient mode shall have been contrived (according to the late sugges- tion of Lord Palmerston in England) for turning back the drains and gutters and common sewers of our great cities and towns upon our farms and gardens, instead of allow- ing them to run waste to the sea, breeding pestilence as they flow, " the country thus purifying the towns, and the towns fertilizing the country ; " when the great doctrine of 20 modern science shall be practically recognized and applied, that there is no waste in the physical universe, nothing in excess, nothing useless, from the bone which the dog growls over at our door, to the dung of the sea-fowl, for which the nations of the earth are contending, on the most distant and desolate island, but that " Nature never lends The smallest scruple of her excellence, But, like a thrifty goddess, she determines Herself the glory of a creditor, Both thanks and use ;" — still, still, the great want of American agriculture will re- main, — that want which I have alluded to, in the opening of this address, and to which I recur once more, for a few moments, in its conclusion, — the want of adequate markets for the sale of its produce.
