PLANT EOOD.

AS long as farmyard manures were
the chief fertilizers used upon crops
farmers gave little attention to the
plant food ingredients contained in
the home made product. In fact, the
humus in the manure had such a
wholesome effect upon the soil that
the plant food contained therein had
little to do with increasing fields. AS
soils became depleted of their fertility
they needed plant food as well as hui
mus, and then the chemist and the
farmer found that some manures were
much richer in plant food than others.
They found that feeding grains and
concentrated rations gave more plant
food to the manure.
1t is a well-known fact tEat plants
require many mineral and vegetable
elements in soil if they grow well
upon it; but many of these elements
are so common in all soils and SO
abundant that they need not be con-
sidered in estimating TIC value OF a
fertilizer. In commercial fertilizers
they are entirely ignored. The chief
elements that are not found in all
soils in sufficient quantities for the
production of maximum crops are nitro
gen, phosphoric acid and potash.

GOOD GENERAL FERTILIZER.

One of Ithe best general fertilizers
the wrlW has ever used on soil
rather sandy and loamy is composed OF
300 pounds of acid phosphate, 6Oo
pounds of fish scrap, 100 pounds Oh
nitrate of soda and 400 pounds of mu-
riate of potash to the acre. For use
on vegetables, where the crop is the
top, such as cabbage, the potash is re-
duced one-half and the nitrate OF SODA
doubled, while 1000 pounds of acid
phosphate is used. This plan of fer
tilizing is followed after the plot has
received fair amount of stable ma
nure the season before. 1t is as good
as any complete fertilizer on the mar
ket and costs much less by buying the
ingredients and mixing them on the
