and the dismal outlook in 1893 wher
Cleveland was president. He draws
on Bradstreet's for support. He ther
shows how, under Mckinley, nation

minstation and free trade agitation
for the starvation and unemployment
of 1894. He ends his statement will

FRESH vs.. RorTED MANURE
Some Interesting Facts Given Which
s$89lf Show Advantage Slightly In
SsS.E Favor OF Former. 52
By ANDREW BOsS.)

~
A Most people have an idea that rot
ted manure Is much more valuable
fertilizer than manure fresh from the
barns or yards. This idea prevails
because Of the heavy, compact nature
of the rotted manure. The value Of
manure is determined by the amount
of various elements of fertility con-
tanned therein. These elements are
mainly nitrogen, phosphorc acid and
potash. They are usually figured at
l5c, &C and SC per pound, respective
ly. On this basis a ton of fresh barn
yard manure is worth $1.9S. A ton OF
rotted manure is worth $2.04, or only
&C more. When the fact Is consld-
cred that it takes nearly two tons OF
fresh barnyard manure to make one
ton Of rotted manure owing to the
loss from evaporation and teaching,
it can be seen that much OF the fer.
tilfzing matter originally contained -
lost in the rotting process. II.
z An eastern state reports some IN
teresting observations on the expert
mental use of fresh and rotted
manure. Both were used on the corn
and wheat crops. in comparison with
unmanured land. The yield Of corn
on unmanured land was $751; bushels
per acre. On land dressed with rot
ted manure, "a yield Of 65.1 bushels
were secured; II and where fresh
manure was applied. the yield was
,70.7 bushels per acre. The increased
yiedl of corn from the use Of rotted
manure was 27.6 bushels, and from the
use of fresh manure 1926 bushels. an
increase of 5 bushels per acre in favor
of the fresh manure. On the wheat.
crop the effect was similar, though
not SO marked. On the unmanured
land, the wheat yielded 1911 bushels
per acre: where rotted manure was
used. 1911 bushels; and on the land
dressed with fresh manure, 1877 busl-
els per acre were secured. The In
crease in favor Of the fresh manure
Is only g bushels per acre on the
wheat crop.
While the. increased returns are
comparatively small in both cases, it
illustrates clearly the fact that fresh
manure is at least as good as the rot
ted manure, and for some crops even
better.
