enormous sums i'm manufactures produc-

appliances for its utilization. The state
ment that no important improvements
had been made in gas manufacture since

altogether wide OF the truth. As a matter
Of fact, great Improvements had been

USE FOR SPOILED HAY
Possesses Valuable Properties as
Lasting Plant Food

A large quantity of hay in this sec
ton was rendered of little use as feed
product because of the continued rain
fall and the inability of many farmers
to harvest and cure it under such unfav-
orable conditions. In many instances
this damaged hay has been thrown
away, few realizing that in soil enrich
ment hay of this kind is estimated to
be worth to the farmer from SO. so to
$40. so per ton. The same conditions
exist in other sections of the state and
the Boise Statesman Of recent date has
the following to say on this subject:
Thousands of tons of hay, spoiled by
the late rains, have been destroyed in
the Boise and other south Idaho valleys
this year that might have been put to
good use if an Oregon authority is ac-
cepted Hay that has lost its feeding
qualities still retains the elements that
render it valuable as fertilizer. A ton
of clover hay contains 40 pounds of nit
rogen, five pounds of phosphorus and
30 pounds of potassium. That amount
Of plant food bought in the market
would cost from $3.50 to $40. so. At
three tons of hay to the acre the fer
tility value rises proportionately The
spoiled hay, this authority says, should
be hauled to the barn yard and put in
deep piles to rot, being wet if it is in
clined to 'frefang." The rain will
complete the process of decomposition
and the fertilizer will be ready to
spread on the land in the fall In many
cases the hay can be spread at once on
the stubble field or the pasture that is
to be plowed in the fall Every ton of
the fertilizer contains as mucn plant
food as is taken from the land by 30
bushels of wheat, GO bushels Of oats,
200 bushels OF potatoes or 900 bushels
of apples. The lands in our valleys
may not require fertilizers, but if any
o1 them need replenishment the advice
here given may be OF value.
