Loss IN HANDLING MANURE
Much Of Good Qualities Lost by EH
poSure to Elements for Period
Of Four Months.
fRv ANTON G. WAaNER.l


One Of our experimental stations
has shown by careful investigation
that when the stable manure Ii piled
up and left exposed to the rains the
loss from Teaching OF the fertile ele-
ments is very large. The New Jersey
station finds that manure exposed for
100 days lost over one-half OF the nj
trogen, one-half of the phosphoric acid
the same proportion Of the potassium
had been lost. More than one-half Of
the constituents had been lost by an
exposure of less than four months.
Work from other experiment stations
confirms this.
A great deal Of valuable manure ID
also lost in badly arranged stables
where there are poor facilities for re-
covering the manure. The valuable
LIQUID manure is lost by drainage
The best way to save all the fertile
elements in manure is to hHul 1t on the
fields and meadows and spread 1t even
ly over the land. Washed into the soil
It is preserved for the next crop.
