BARNARD MANURE

Milk COWS will void In the eXcrement
about Is per cent. of the nitrogen
and 80 per cent of the ash consti tuents
taken in the food. -"
The unavoidable mechanical losses
of stable manure occur through the
dropping of manure on or outside OF
the farm where 1t cannot be recovered.
These losses cannot of course be
entirely eliminated except through a
permanent stabling of the animals a
system that is only practiced in the
winter time or when the weather is
very severe.
The losses occurring through avoid
able sources are however greater
than many farmers realize; at con.
sentative estimate not more than one
half the fertilizer value which manure
contains is preserved and contributes
to make good the losses of plant food
in the soil from the culture OF the
crop. Careful trials by several eX-
pertinent stations have shown that
the losses of fertilizing constituents
in the manure under ordinary con-
ditions of piling and exposure during
the summer months alone amount to
from 30 to over so per cent. These
losses may be largely avoided by
protecting the MANURE from teaching
and from fermentation the two great
causes of it's deterioration.
Teaching is perhaps the most i'm
portant cause of loss of plant food in
stable manure. Prof. Roberts la to
director of the Cornell Experiment

One of the chic reasons that dairy
farming is pursued instead of other
branches of farming is that it con-
serves the fertility of the soil. Yet
when we notice with what careless
ness the manure is generally handled.
we wonder if it doesn't actually waste
rather than conserve the fertility.
The manner in which the manure
is cared for and applied to the soil
is pro badly a better indication OF
ability and intelligence on the part
of the farmer than is the size of the
crop he succeeds in raising. The
proper care of manure is most I'M
portant factor in successful dairy
farming. If all the manure from a
single COW could be saved and trans
formed into plant food it would have
a value of approximately $50 per COW
per year; figures based on prices for
commercial fertilizers.
Prof. Woll, of Wisconsin, says:
The value OF stable manures depends
on the system of feeding practiced
the kind of animals kept and the
method of caring and applying the
manure to the land. Rich feeding
produces rich manure since the most
valuable feeds are almost without
exception very rich in fertilizer in
gradients. The amount of fertilizing
elements obtained by farm animals
in the body or made use of in their
products will vary with different
animals and with the same animals
at different periods of their growth.

Popularity Of the SiIo.

Some of the silo manufacturers re-
port that they have put up more
structures this year than in any five
years in the history 70 the business.
This proves one important thing
that the averRe farmer has at last
awakened to the fact that the silo is
an indispensable factor in livestock
feeding. While it is troue that thou
sands have done without the silo in
the past, it is none the less true that
under present conditions, where in
many cases farm land is worth $500
per acre, feeding operations must be
carried on in the most economical
way to get the best results. The silo
does the trick, whether you feed dairy
cattle or steers for the block.

Station says: 'Many barn yards.
which serve among other things for
the storage of manure at least half
year, contain one-eighth or one-half
acre of land. One inch of rainfall
equals 113 tons of water per acre.
Assuming that the average yearly
rainfall is 15 inches, which is very
low for many localities, we are able
to get some conception of the loss of
manure baptized at the rate OF 100
tons of water during six months
approximately the time manure is
exposed in the barn yards
Teaching may be avoided by keep
ing the manure under shelter, by
building water proof platform on
which the manure is piled, or by
hauling it to the field from day to
day. The last method is adopted and
practiced by progressive farmers in
most localities, but Of course cannot
be carried out when the ground is
soft, since more harm is done by
tramping the soil than would result
if the manure was not applied until
later. On comparatively level land
the manure may be hauled out in
winter, when the ground is frozen or
even put on the snow, because it
would practically all leach into the
soil as soon as The ground thawed,
whereas it the land was rolling, much
of the fertilizing value would run off
with the melted snow.
!. Fermentation (heating) of manure
which involves losses of it's most
valuable component, nitrogen, may
be greatly reduced by distributing on
the field as it is produced. Since the
fermentation is brought about by
bacteria and since they do not grow
readily without air and warm temper
allure, we can reduce the heating by
keeping the manure pile wet and pill
ing so as to exclude the air.
Surplus manure is sure to collect
and therefore provisions should be
made to prevent the waste until it
can be hauled to the field, by build
ing a platform CT shed where it can
be stored, protected from teaching
and so far as possible from the con-
ditions that favor fermentation.
Liquid manure should either be
allowed to drain into a reservoir,
from which it could be pumped to be
applied to the soil, or some absorbent
such as straw or sawdust should be
used, so that it could be taken up
with the other manure.

Case Of Newspaper Correspondent A.

Complicated Situation.
(By Associated PresS.)

Of Baron Won Ungern-Sternberg prom
Uses to develop dramatic interest to

Der of members of the Duma will be
involved seems certain and it may be
officials of war department may be
drawn into the net.
Won Ungern-Sternberg is Russian
subject and Is correspondent of an
Austrian newspaper
The formal accusation against him
Is that of communicating to Austria
report of secret sitting of the Du-
ma dealing with the new distribution
Of the Russian army. A printed copy
Of the report was found among the
papers seized at his house. AS he Is
a Russian subject and an ex-officer,
this charge is undoubtedly serious. A
notebook was also found containing
entries of small sums received from
various members Of the Austro-Hun-
garian Embassy, where he was en-
ployed as a translator. One of the
sums was $50 roubles received from
Count Spannocchi. 1t is inferred that
an attempt will be made to trace the
disclosures Of the secret report to M.
Miliukoff. The witness replied that
her husband was personally well &C.
quainted with Count Spannocchi and
had occasionally borrowed money
from him and other members Of the
Embassy staff. He considered the
facts of having a secret report in his
possession and his pecuniary transac-
tons so little compromising that he
left the one on his table and inscribed
details Of the others in his notebook.
Some journals declare that he acted
as secret service agent for Austria
and that Count Spannocchi would
have to leave his post. Baron Won
Ungern-Sternberg' friends wonder
how secret service agent could lack
money.

Nine Different Schedules.

In order to secure the information
so specifically called for by congress,
the census bureau, In taking the agri-
cultural census, the field work of which
has just been completed, made use of
a special or supplemental irrigation
schedule to be filled by the enumera-
tors for every farm having irrigation
in the arid regions of the United
States. This special schedule, how
ever, secured only a small part of the
information needed in order to pre-
pare the full report required by con-
gress. To supplement it, the bureau
of the census has prepared drafts of
nine different schedules, the informa-
ton on which will be collected by
special agents of the bureau in the
case of irrigation enterprises carried
on as governmental, commercial, or
cooperative undertakings, and by
means Of correspondence in the case
of irrigation practiced by individual
farmers for their own farms. In his
letter to the experts mentioned, the
director says:
Before definitely adopting the
schedules, drafts of which have been
prepared, the bureaus desiring to Sc
cure the opinions of persons like your
self, who have given special attention
to irrigation matters. I am, therefore
inclosing with this letter copy of the
supplemental irrigation schedule made
use of by enumerators in taking the
general census Of agriculture, copies
of the proof of the other schedules to
be used in the further work of prose
cutting this investigation, and a copy
f the instructions to the special agents
for use by them in securing returns
on the schedules to be handled by
them.
| Il shall appreciate it very much il
you will look over these schedules an6
give me the benefit of your criticisms
and suggestions. am aware that
many points of interest have not beer
covered by the questions of these
schedules. The experience of the bu
reau of the census in past investiga
lions has shown conclusively that the
effort to obtain too much information
results in failure to secure complete
and accurate returns. 1t is deemed
better, therefore, to reduce the mum
Der of questions to the lowest point
possible. At the same time it is not
desired to omit any question calling
portance"
