STABLE MANURE

Undoubtedly some stable manure
has accumulated about the buildings
during the rush of harvest, th-eshing,
and corn picking. 1t is good plan to
get this out onto the field just as soon
as possible. II there come a few
nice days after corn husking you will
find II advantageous to use this time
cleaning up the yards.
If the stable manure Is allowed to
stand in piles during the winter
months a great deal of it's value is apt
to be lost by heating. 1t is common
thing to see plies of stable manure
steaming during the winter months.
This is due to heat from the pile and
II ii were possible for us to see just
what was taking place we would find
that nitro%t II was escaping. AS nitro
gen is one OF the most important plant
follow methods of handling the ma
nure so as not to lose it. An ordinary
load of stable manure will contain
about 10 pounds Of nitrogen, which II
bought on the market IN CONNER
cal form will cost % cents pound.
Not only is the nitrogen escaping, but
the vegetable matter which is so i'm
portant in many soils is being de-
stroyed by burning.
The summers accumulation of ma
nure can be conveniently and prof
itab'-' applied to winter wheat or to a
meadow which we expect to put into
corn next year. 1t is not advisable to
apply manure at this time of the
season on hillsides or where it is apt
to be washed away. 1t is always
advisable to apply fertilizer of this
kind to the highest parts of the field.
1t is very generally conceded that
best returns are obtained from light
application from the fact that manure
applied in this way is much easier
incorporated with the soil than IL
spread in large quantities. The only
practical way of applying manure
uniformly is by the use of a manure
spreader, and every farmer who raises
stock should consider his farm equip
ment incomplete unless he has a ma
nure spreader.

ders above all others in educational
extension work Our experiment
stations have worI,ed for years OBJ
tanning and collecting information
along agricultural lines The usual
way of distributing this has been
through bulletins and other publica-
tions, which method. although 1t Is
good, lacks the effectiveness OF per-
sonal contact In getting the facts
to the farmer in an effective way Is
where the professor excels.
He received his early training in
Michigan, later in Illinois, and devel-
oped his great extension work in the
forts that the first demonstration
train was euuipped and operated. He
also has established county demon
stration work on county poor farms,
winter short courses, boys corn clubs,
and other forms Of extension work
which have helped greatly in the de-
velopment of Iowa and in placing her
high among agricultural states.
Through his efforts in corn the
average increase for the period of the
last eight years over the period of
eight years previous. has been three
bushels to the acre, thus adding mil
lions to the wealth of Iowa.
Since the Service Bureau was Or
ganized two years ago, it has accom-
pished much in the field Of agricul-
tural education. 1t now has three
demonstration farms in the south and
two in the west; it has distributed
good alfalfa seed in some sections Of
the corn belt; also published many
booklets, prepared articles for the
press, offered handsome prizes for
the best yields of grain, has come
in close contact with the rural
schools, presented illustrated lectures
to thousands of audiences, establish
ed fellowships and scholarships, and
many other things for the advance
ment of agriculture.
The acquisition of Professor Holden
will add greatly to the effectiveness
of the Service Bureau work. Under
his direction the educational work in
the field will include the entire terri
tory in which the company does bust
ness. Plans now include promoting Of
the growth of alfalfa throughout all
sections in which It can be grown;
also assisting as much as possible In
the production of corn in the north
west.
The company stands ready to assist
in this work in an effective way, and
to cooperate with all influences and
forces working for the up-building Of
agriculture.

KEEPING SHREDDED FODDER

w. w. Greiner, Orange, Virginia,
writes as follows: 81 am using a
Mccormick husker and shredder this
fall but have no storage rooms for
stover. My plan is to stack it out
side, but have been advised that there
is great danger Of losing it If stacked
outside, and cannot afford to lose it..
Can you advise me how to stack 1t so
it will keep? | can neither bale it nor
build storage rooms this fall"
Shredded fodder may be kept either
outdoors or inside, depending on local
conditions. If you have a great deal
of wet weather during the fall and
winter, much Of the shredded fodder
will spoil, as is the case with any
rough feed stacked outdoors. There
will be more waste to the shredded
fodder than with the hay because of
the fact that it is finer and not
as easily handled as hay. In ~
sections of the corn belt the shredded
fodder is stacked outdoors, but very
seldom is this done excepting where
it is impossible to put it under cover.
We would suggest that you use some
coarse hay to top the stack, and thus
prevent some Of the loss due to wet
weather.
The only danger of stacking shred
ded fodder or putting in the barn re-
suits from the fact that it is shredded
when very damp or wet. In no case
should fodder be shredded during a
damp rainy day because it will absorb
the moisture very rapidly, and If stored
when in this condition is very apt to
spoil We have known of instances
where shredded fodder has burned up
caused by instantaneous combustion,
due to the fact that it was shredded
when too wet, or during wet period
Of weather.
If you could stack your shredded
fodder against one side of the barn,
and provide board roof for ii, and at
the same time have 1t convenient to
where you expect to feed it, you would
not lose great deal by stacking 1t
outdoors.

CLOVER

We have often called attention to
the fact that every farmer should
whenever sowing grass Of any kind in
clude some one of the varieties Of
clover. If you expect to use your
land for meadow purposes then one Of
the larger varieties, viz, the Man,
moth Red or Common Red clover
best. If you expect to use the land
both for pasture and for hay, the
Alsike clover will serve your purpose
best. While on the other hand if you
expect to pasture the land, then we
would recommend a combination of
Alsike and White clover.
There are several ways in which
one can obtain stand of clover. The
first under consideration Is to COM
bine clover and timothy with winter
wheat, sowing them at the same time
along the last part of September.
Glover should not be sown at this
time, however, provided you are par
ticularly anxious to obtain stand.
Glover sown in the fall will winter
kill very badly under normal condi-
tions and for this reason It is not ad-
visable to SOW clover during the fall
of the year. With timothy it may be
sown with the wheat at the same
time, either scattering the seed in
front of the drill or by sowing the
seed first and drilling the wheat later,
then covering it by the use of the peg
tooth harrow. The clover may be
sown just before it freezes up in the
winter, but we do not recommend
this practice, because of the uncer-
tainty of the weather, but prefer wait
ing until spring to SOW the clover
seed. During the latter part of Feb
ruary or the first of March, just be-
for the spring thaws begin and when
the land is in rough and frozen con-
dition is the best time to add the
clover seed. The heaving due to
freezing and thawing will cover the
seed sufficient under most condi-
lions. However, if the land is sandy
this practice might not be successful
and we do not recommend it but on
the other hand If your soil contains a
large amount of clay you could expect
success by following this method.
Another way of sowing timothy and
clover but one which requires a little
more judgment on the part of the
farmer is to SOW the wheat in the fall
and add the clover and timothy in the
spring after the land has thawed out
and the surface become dry. The
plan is to SOW the clover and timoth,
combined at this time by using a pei
tooth harrow, which not only covers
the seed but cultivates the wheat a
the same time. The timothy will no
show up with the first season, but you
ought to get a good crop of clover ant
the timothy will come on later.
Either of the latter two methods
ought to give you fairly good returns
If you expect to leave this field seed
ed down for any length of time i
would be a good plan to add two Of
three pounds of Bluegrass seed wher
sowing the timothy.
