Mixing Ashes With Manure.

There are only two conditions under
which ashes may properly be mixed
with stable or other nitrogen
GUS manures. One is when the ashes
have already been saturated with nj
trogen and their caustic. properties
have thus been neutralized. The
other is when stable manure is to be
plowed under the soil. Caustic ashes
will then greatly hasten its fermenta
lion, and will thus increase its availa.
bility and effectiveness. Boston Cul
