Garden Manures and Fertilizers.

Stable manure is excellent for
the garden, of course, but annual
manuring with stable manure only
will soon get an excess of nitrogen
in the soil, and you will find that
your potatoes run to tops and
make small potatoes, and that your
tomatoes grow too rankly and
make too many imperfect fruits.
Now, / do not advise stopping the
use of stable manure on the gar
den, but | do advise making 1t a
better balanced plant food. 1t is
deficient especially in phosphoric
acid, and its efficiency will be
greatly promoted by mixing at
least 100 pounds of acid phosphate
to every ton of manure. Then if
the liquid portion of the manure
has been carefully saved, there
will not be much deficiency in
potash, but on sandy soils it is bet
| ter to add some muriate of potash,
say 20 pounds to the ton of manure.
Now, while / do not think that for
ordinary farm crops it pays to
compost and fine the manure, il
does pay for the garden. would
pile the manure now and scatter
the acid phosphate and potash
