Apple Pomace as a Manure.


Apple pomace, as we'll as the leaves of the
tree, if spread thickly on the land while In a
green state, will destroy all vegetation be-
meath them. When put into large heaps
they have been known TO kill trees. Their
deleterious effects upon vegetation are not
because they do not contain any fertilizing
properties, but because they contain, while
in a green state, TOO great proportion of
acid.for their other ingredients. They also
pack so closely together as to exclude both
air and light, without which vegetable
growth can not long exist. Some years ago
l mulched, pretty heavily, some strawberry
plants with about half-dried cherry and
apple tree leaves, with a view to protect
death of nearly all my plants by spring, and
the land remained sour most of the follow
ing summer.
III apple pomace be put in heap and ex-
posed to the frost of winter, and in the
spring incorporated with some dry straw or
corn cobs, with small portion of unslacked
lime, and again left exposed to the summer
suns, by fall the acia will be mostly ex-
hauSted, and the compost makes an excel
lent top dressing for winter wheat. 1t may
be used to advantage during winter as a top
dressing for meadows or other grass land.
1t should not be used until the acid has
evaporated. For the destruction of any OF
the varieties of Linaria (wIld fax yarrow.
milfoil orany other noxious perennial plant,
know of nothing better than liberal ap-
plicstion of salt. Salt, when used sparingly
on growing crops, somewhat distant from
the sea coast is an excellent fertilizer. When
| used in large quantities il becomes a speedy
exterminator of vegetable matter. 1t also
puts the land into excellent condition for
future crops.
