Potash Fertilizer for Fruit.

Ne Gnd the following IN report
from The Massachusetts, experiment
station: Potash fertilizers have
decidedly proved the desirable
Qua ies of fruits. Wherever the
percentage of this element has
been raised, the change is accom-.
panied by an increase OF sugar and
q decrease Of acid. This is i'm
portaUt-l matter of dollars and
cents. Other things being equal,
the fruit with the largest per cent.
Of sugar will bring the highest
price. Moreover, less desirable
varieties may be brought up to a
higher standard, thus giving value
to some good quality, as hardness
and prolific bearing. The fact that
the quality and character of garden
and orchard products can be
modified 10y the effect OF special
fertilizers is Of immense impOr-
lance in its practical as we'll as
well as scientific bearing.

Experiments With Manure.

Last season Investigations were
made at the experiment station of
Cornell university to determine the
loss by teaching and fermentation
OF the farmyard manure from ex-
pOSure. The result of the one sea-
sons trial seems to show that
horse manure thrown in a
loose pile and subjected to the ac-
ton of the elements will lose
nearly one-half of its value fer.
tllizing constituents in SIX months ,
thar mixed horse and COW manure
in a compat mass and so placed
that all water falling on 1t quickly
rams through and Oft Is subjected
to a considerable, though not SO
great a loss, and that no appreci
able loss occurs when manure
simply dries. Professor Shelton
from similar experience at the
Kansas experiment station is
cuei as saying that "the moral

plaAze IS that tarmyard ma
Dures must be hauled out IN the

same time next year, but it did
not, nor has there been any indica-
