Experiments in the Manuring Of Meadow Land

There are several things of interest
and of practical importance in this
table. The land has been much i'm
proved, increasing in yield from one
and one-half tons to five and one.half
tons. The manure plat gave an aver
age yield of 1864 pounds of hay per
acre more than the commercial fer.
tilizer plati yet the value of the crop
was only $5.1S higher than that of the
fertilizer plat. on account of the light
cost of the stable manure But this
small money gain is in addition to the
great improvement to the ground ag-
riculturally by the use of stable ma
nure as compared with the CONNER
cial fertilizer For while the soil of
the manure plat is rich with decom-
posing vegetable matter, and soft and
velvety, the fertilizer strip was hard
and compact and liable to suffer in
times of drought.
The conclusions drawn are:
81. Both systems of manuring were
highly profitable.
'2. Large crops of grass can be
grown upon soils of this class. provid-
ed that sufficient plant food is sup.
piled for the needs of the crop.
"3. Stable manure. when applied to

comes so disintegrated and incorpor.
ated with the surface of the soil that
it is not raked up with the hay when
the hay is harvested.
"4. The use of stable manure, even
when valued at one dollar per load
when spread upon the meadow, was
more profitable than the use Of com.

Mcdonald was known among his
friends as an iconoclast. His greatest
delight was to smash images. One of
his, particular cronies was Perkins.
When Perkins wanted a little enter.
tainment in the evening he had a way
of getting a few congenial spirits
around table in a cafe and after q
few round of drinks had percolated
through their systems he would bring
up some abtruse subject and hear Nc.
Donald's radical views. He always
felt sure that Mcdonald would take
the opposite side from the generally
accepted view of any subject.
1t was at one of the usual evening
gatherings when the circle of init.
mates were seated in their usual cozy
corner. When Perkins noticed Nc

down an afternoon paper he had been

Some recent experiments in manur-
Ing meadow, made by the West Vir-
ginia university agricultural expert
ment station, are not only interesting
but will prove of value as a guide
to those who are trying to improve
their own land.
Much Of our meadow land, which
should be most profitable. has been
neglected to the extent that, instead
of yielding four or five tons of good
hay to the acre, they yield, oftentimes
but little over one and half tons.
The experiment reported in this bulle-
tin shows how an unfertile upland
meadow was made to produce an av-
erage of more than three tons of hay
per acre, the yields gradually increas-
ing from trifle more than one and
one-half tons per acre the first year
to maximum of more than five and
one-half tons per acre the last year.
Condensing the report as much as
possible, we have the following, CIV
ing kind and amount of fertilizers

Too often this is never impaired or is
withheld until serious harm has result

Undertaken Gourley states that the
man had been dead several hours and
that there is bad bruise or fracture
on one side of the head and from all |
indications this was made by striking
the piling of the bridge on the west
side of the tracks.
The manner in which the body was
laying and its relation to the railroad
track would lead to a confirmation of
the theory that the man was pas

on car platform or step when he
was suddenly knocked from the train
