In other words, ton OF average
horse manure contains plant food
worth about s3.1S, and ton of cow
manure contains about s2.36 worth.
Every practical farmer knows,
however, that for most crops and on
most soils a ton of manure is worth
much more, and it has already been
explained why this is so.
The progressive farmer and southern farm gazette. (Starkville, Miss.) 1910-1920, 1910-01-22

keep the manure until 1t is well rot

farm crops 1t does not pay, and there

oles to the field every day. Where
this is impossible. the best thing Ia

How Manure is Wasted.

Notwithstanding the great value
Of stable manure and the very limit
ed supply on most farms, it is un-
fortunately true that large per cent
stead of being returned to the soil,
and in many cases much OF the HUI
mus-forming and bacteria-aiding ben
eft that might be obtained from IL
is lost.
Whenever manure is left exposed TO
the weather the soluble plant foods
IN it are quickly washed out by rains.
IL 1t is on the land where Ii Is need
ed. this does not matter, as the plant
foods will be taken into the soil; but
II the manure is lying in a hard
packed barnyard that drains into
gully or creek. the best part OF 1t is
largely lost. Many farmers imagine
that the manure left by their stock
on the pasture is of little benefit.
while the truth is that they probably
get much larger proportionate ben
eft from ii than from that which is
dropped in the stables. This is GER
tainly true II this latter is thrown
out under the caves of the barn or
allowed to get hot and dry and fire
rang Few farmers have any real
idea OF the great loss which occurs
from their careless methods OF han
ding manure. Experiments made
by Roberts show that when horse
manure Is thrown In loose pile and
subjected to the joint action of leach
Ing and weathering 1t may lose in
six months nearly 60 per cent of It's
most valuable fertilizing congtitu-
ents." When the liquid manure is
wasted. as Is so often the case. fully
TWO thirds of the nitrogen and n
large part of the potash In the ma
nure Is lost.
Whenever manure is allowed To
heat until the sharp, acrid scent of
escaping ammonia can be noticed
the farmer is losing money again. for
the most valuable plant food In IL IN
escaping into the air. In fact, when
ever decomposition sets In. there is
likely TO be some loss OF ammonia.
The mixing of lime or ashes with ma

monia in 1t. and should never be

Short Talks About Fertilizers.
A READING COURSE.
VII-Making and Caring For Stable Manure.
I'm HE threefold value OF stable
TM manures- (D in improving

Ix1 the texture of the soil, (2) In
promoting bacterial activity, and CD
in adding to the available plant food
in the soil-has already been
spoken of in this series; and all that
was said about the benefits of green
manures applies with even more
force to stable manures.
Manures contain nothing that was
not In the feed the animals consum-
ed; but these feeds have been chang
ed, both in their physical condition
and their chemical composition, by
the processes of digestion, so that
they are, as a rule, more quickly eff
fects than green manures. Stable
manures, indeed, may be said to be
the basis Of all really scientific and
practical fertilization. There are, OF
course, exceptions to this rule-for
example, they should not be applied
directly to some crops-but 1t is
safe general proposition. The gen.
eral farmer should use commercial
fertilizer as supplements to his
home-produced manure, and not as a
substitute for it.
Stable Manures the Cheapest Fertil-
iZers.
The economy of feeding a great
part Of the crops grow on the land
to live stock, Of getting the full feed
ing value of these crops and then of
returning from two-thirds to three
fourths Of the fertilizing elements in
them to the soil in readily avail
able and permanently helpful form,
must be apparent to any one. Then
when 1t is remembered that cultiva-
ton always has a tendency to reduce
the humus supply in the soil, that
this supply must be kept up II the
producing ability of the land is to
be maintained or increased, and
that commercial fertilizers do prac-
tically nothing toward keeping up
this supply. the folly of any ones
engaging in general farming without
paying due attention to both the pro-
duction and the care OF stable ma
nures would seem to be too vident TO
be overlooked.
What Stable Manures Contain.
AS already stated. the value OF the
manure produced by an animal de-
ponds upon the feed the animal has
had. There Is In the manure that
part Of the feed material which has
not been assimilated by the animal.
and the waste products OF its body
that have been thrown OF and ex-
PEELED with this unused material.
For this reason stable manures
vary constantly and considerably In
composition. The analyses usually
published are averages of a great
many. and are to be regarded only as
averages. The thing for the feeder
to remember is, that feeding with
"rich," nutritious feeds will produce
manure rich in plant foods, while
feeding with feeds low In nutriment
can only produce manure of poor
quality.
The following table gives some
analyses which may be taken as rep.
resenting fair average OF the com.
position Of stable manures:

third than he did today. ,Conroy had
seven chances and there was not one Of
them easy. In the first inning he made
Streets hard throw and threw himself
between Zeider and the base, thus pre-
venting him from stealing. After that he
made number of clever stops and was
frequently eheered for his good work
Clyde Milan has given such a splendid
exhibition Of fielding on the local grounds
that the fans here consider him the best
center fielder in the league. He covered
acres Of ground yesterday, and the ONLY
difficult chance offered him today was a
long drive by Scott in the sixth, which
Zeb ran for and turned just in time to
make the catch.
He is not only displaying much better
form In the field, but he Is hitting as
he did of old. The first two times he faced
Smith today he drove the ball to left
field on line for singles. He had but
one chance in the field and that was not
difficult.
There is no player on the team more
tickled with the present winning streak
than Walter Johnson. In the four years
has always been a losing team, and many
Of his efforts on the slab have been
wasted because the team could not get
any runs for him. 1t is different now and
Walter appreciates the change
Il tell you it makes a lot of differ
ence in the way a fellow feels when
his team is winning" said he after to-
days victory. 1T used to be that we
were jeered and roasted all the way
from the grounds to the hotel but now
it is much different, for the crowds
have nothing to say and they even
cheer us. This winning streak will
make all the difference in the world to
us. / believe that we stand a good
chance Of finishing at the head of the
second division"
Manager McAleer had conference
with President Ban Johnson this morn
ing, during which he explained his side
of the Jones affair. President Johnson
evidently was satisfied that McAleer
was not to blame, for he told him to
take charge of his team on the field
again. while the fine he imposed on
Jones will stand.

Support Perfect.

But his support must not be overlooked
There were eight other players in gray
uniforms who did their share. Nothing
that resembled an error occurred behind
Reisling. while Conroy and Mcbride made
all sorts of stops and picks which did
much to discourage the hated opposi-
ton.
Neither Smith nor Scott, who succeeded
him. had any terror for McAleers men.
True, it was bit of good luck that the
Nationals scored in the open inning, but
Smith was being hit pretty hard when,
IN the sixth inning. he turned his ankle
