NEW FACTS; OLD MaNURES.

Values of the Various Sorts of Fer
tiiizer Set Forth Briefly.
Horse manure from city stables
usually contains 20 to 20 per cent of
water In the form in which such ma
nure reaches the farmer The solid
portion Of such manure contains of
nitrogen from 0.5 to O.S per cent, phos-
phoric acid 0.3 to 05 per cent. potash
0.5 to or per cent. lime 0.5 to 0S per
cent. with traces of magnesia. The
drfer the manure the larger the guam
tity of actual plant food elements in
the ton. Computing the above named
quantities of nitrogen therein as worth
70 cents per pound. phosphoric acid
and potash each cents a pound, the
valuation of horse manure Of the
above range of composition works out
from S264 to S4.16 per ton.
Sheep manure from stockyards and
slaughter houses is sometimes sold In
the market either under its own name
or as so called natural guano." Anaiy-
sis OF three such samples sold In Con-
nectfcut showed them to contain about
as much nitrogen, phosphoric acid and
potash as could be bought in the form
of fertilizer chemicals for S11 or $12
The sheep manure sold at from $25 to
S33 a ton. But, as the station report
says, ii must also be remembered that
SO per cent of sheep manure consists
Of fine vegetable matter. which forms
humus In the soil and has distinct
value in feeding the soil bacteria and
in regulating the water content Of the
soil
A curious fertiliZing material comes
In small quantities from silk mills. II
is called cocoon dust and consists
of the dead bodies of silkwOrms. The
Connecticut station found it to be ex-
traordinarily rich In nitrogen. contain
ing nearly 10 per cent of this sub
stance; also small quantities of phes-
phoric acid and potash.
Sewage waste may be profitable as
a fertilizer. Tie sludse which accu-
mulates on the sand beds used for the
publication of sewage at Rockville
was found by the Connecticut station
to contain of wafer 6S per cent, of
nitrogen 1.34 per cent, with traces of
phosphoric acid and potash. This ma
terial has almost three times as much
nitrogen as stable manure. but it is
probably much less available to crops
because the more soluble and valuable
part of the nitrogen has been removed
by water and micro5e action. Never
theless if 1t can be got for the hauling
it might pay for a short haul to pillow

Nations Navigation

A general program OF Improvement in
aids to navigation was shown today

Secretary oe Commerce and Labor Ma
gel for expenditures for 1913, asking
nearly two and half millions for light
houses and lightshirs. This is a fat in
crease of the expenditures Of the de-
pnrtment. as no money was appro-
prtated for this use last year. Among
the places designated for improve
ment and thus suggested are:
Mary's River, Mich. $4,000: Cape St
