STRAW AS FERTILIZER.
Its Value Can Ee Placed Mt Two
Dollars a Ton.

The actual value of straw for the fer
tilizing elements in the straw itself
may be roughly estimated at about two
dollars per ton or little more, taking
all the various stravs into coHsidera-
ton. Glover haulm, from which the
seed has been tEresked ard which has
lost its leaves, must be reckoned con-
siderably higher, and we should say
at three times that amount, although
we have not a reliable analysis at hand
on which TO base our estimate. But
the importance of using straw as bed
ding in the stables does not depend
upon the value of the straw as a fer
tiliZer. but first upon the value of
warm, dry and comfortab able bed for the
animals, purpose which may be served
by other material, as sawdust or leaves,
and second upon its power of absorbing
liquids. Straw easily absorbs twice its
own weight, and when that consists of
the liquid eXcrements of the animal,
it makes the soaked straw actually
more valuable than the solid droppings
of the animals. i saves and conveys
to the soil i'll form readily available
for plant food, all thesnitrates, pEos-
from the system in that way. 1t has
also a mechanical effect in tightening
up heavy soil, making it porous, more
absorbent of moisture, more easily
penetrated by plant roots. and also by
frost and air, both of which have inn
portan: effects in working the chemical
changes there which make mineral
matters more readily available. We do
not think the haulm from clover or
other hay threshed for the seed makes
as good bedding as straw. ard neither
does corn slower. but either OF them
contain more fertilizing elements than
wheat or oat straw, and if cut in pieces
of an inch long they have nearly as
much absorbent power. 1t is a mistake
to put either of these into the manure
without cutting them, because they
have not then opportunity 20 absorb
so much of the liquid. and because more
extra labor is necessary to handle the
manure with these long stalks in it
than would be required TO reduce them
10 inch-loEg pieces. The same thing
may be said of potato, tomato. squash
and other vines. if cut short they make
valuable additions to the manure heap,
but if put in uncut they are nuisance.

terror, Ottawa, Canada.
Sir-Thinking that my experience
In Manitoba might be both useful and
interesting to my fellow-countrymen
in the United States who may be look
ing to Manitoba and the Northwest
with the intention of settling there,
l have much pleasure in stating tn 1T
through informa ton received from
Mr.. w. F. McCreary, immigration
Commissioner at Winnipeg, 1 was in
duced to visit Manitoba in February,
1898. WhenI called upon Mr.. McCreary
he spared no pains to give me all
the information, &c, in his possession,
the result of which was that / came
here with letter of introduction from
him to the Secretary of the Virden
Board of Trade. That gentleman pro-
vided me with a competent land guide
and altho' there was considerable
snow on the ground, 1 had no diff
Guilty in selecting three homesteads
for myself and sons. Having made the
necessary homestead entries at the
Land Office in Brandon, returned to
my home in Lyon County, Minnesota,
and came back here in May following
accompanied by enc of my boys, bring
ing with US two teams of horses, i'm
plements, &c. Our first work was to
erect temporary shanty and stable,
after which we broke and levelled IS
acres and put up 80 tons of hay. I
went back to Minnesota about goth
July, leaving my son here. I returned
in October bringing my family with
me. I found that the land we had
acquired was of good quality being
a strong clay loam with clay subsoil.
Last Spring I sowed 100 acres in
wheat, so acres in oats & barley (75
acres of this grain was sowed on
"goback' plowed last SPRING. My
crop was threshed in October, the re-
suit being over 27OO blu. of grain in
all. Wheat averaged 10 blu. p. &C. and
graded No. l hard but that which was
sown on land other than sod ego
back'') went 24h blu. p. &C.
To say that l am well pleased with
the result of my first years farming
operations in Manitoba does not ade-
quately express my feelings, and I
have no hesitation in advising those
who are living in districts where land
is high in price to come out here, if
they are willing to do a fair amount
OF work. I am 10 miles from Virden,
which is a good market town, and
miles from Hargrave where there are
two elevators. This summer | erected
a dwelling house of native stone and
bought a half-section OF land adioin-
ing our homesteads for which [ paid
very moderate price. There are stall
some homesteads in this district. and
land of fine quality can be purchased
from the Canadian Pacific Ry. Co. at
$3.50 p. &C. on liberal terms. Good
water is generally found at depth of
from Is to 90 #. I have IT'S ac. ready
for crop next year.
The cost of living here is about the
same as in Southern Minnesota. Some
commodities are higher and others
lower in price, but the average is
about the same.
