WHEN TO Put OUT BARNARD MANURE
The subject of how and when to apply barn
yard manure has lately been discussed by both
the Senior and Junior Agricultural Clubs of
Baltimore county. Mr.. j. B. Shattuck, of
Cherry Creek, New York, says that after
thirty years. experience in handling manure
on dairy farm he is decidedly in favor OF
hauling it out on the meadow lands as fast as
it is made. He wants the manure spread on
the ground as soon as it is made so that the
heavy rains will dissolve it and soak it into
the soil before the warm, dry days of summer
evaporate it and dry it up. He counts one
good load of manure spread in October, so
that it can take the winter snow and spring
rains, as good as two loads spread in the fol-
lowing May.-Towson Union.
