BEST USE OF STABLE MANURE IN
The PROPER ROTATION OF CROPS
The Common Practice Is To Manure the Corn First
Manure Without tho Reinforcement of Mineral Fert-
izers Must Be Considered Chiefly As Carrier of
Nitrogen and Vegetable Matter
(By J. c. McAmis, University of Tennegsee.)

floors of shallow pit, which insures
the exclusion OF air and prevents fer
mentation, as the silo does with the
ensilage. In the case of horses and
dairy cattle, it is best to provide a
manure shed with floors and walls of
concrete, to which stock excepting
hogs and chickens) should have access
in order to Keep the manure we'll pack
ed Water should be added II the
manure is dry.
1t may remain under the shed tenn
porarily, but even with shed it
should be hauled to the held as quick
ly as possible, because the soil is the
best place for manure.
AS soon as stock are removed from
the stall or manure shed, the manure
should be spread Immediately upon
the fields. Otherwise it dries and as a
result air is admitted and fermentation
begins. Whenever heating takes place
in manure it results In serious loss
of plant food.
Wherever it is iEpracticable to ap-
ply manure to the grain and clover, the
next best place is to winter cover
crop or winter pasture that Is to be
turned under for corn. 1t Is always
desirable 10 disc the crop and manure
thoroughly before breaking, especially
If the manure is coarse and not we'll
rotted Where manure is held in the
stalls until spring, to be applied to
corn it is usually well rotted, and 1t
should be applied after breaking and
before discing. If it is not we'll rotted,
it should be disced into the land pre-
vious to breaking, Some mixing with
the soil is desirable, and should be
done Immediately, except when 1t is
applied to winter grain and clover as
top dressing
Manure must not be expected to re-
place lime and phosphate in building
soils. Its highest efficiency is obtain
ed on lands we'll supplied with these
materials The plant food which it
contains is chiefly nitrogen.
It has been found that all plants be-
longing to the legume family, by the
aid of bacteria growing upon their
roots, will appropriate the free nitro
gen Of the air: If the soil Is well sup
piled with this element in readily
available form, the bacteria prefer to
use the soil nitrogen instead of fixing
1t from the air.
Nitrogen in soluble form Is readily
leached by exposure to rain and snow
and easily lost as gas In fermenta-
ton. Above all, this process can and
should be prevented by spreading di.
rectly on the field or by keeping 1t wet
and compacted on air and water-tigh'
floors.
Note the losses from exposure to wealth.

1t cost Uncle San 20 lives and
$40. 000,00 to avenge Huerta's
insult. and then no salute was
fired. What a fiasco for a presi-
dent to engineer! ....... The two
mornings last week when zero
lacked only 10 steps Of being
reached, was going some for
November 49,. Next week the
biggest gun in the whole push
will tackle sin at the Methodist
church in Selmer. Let every
body come and take part........
1t looks like Senator Lea will not
have smooth sailing in his sena-
torial race two years hence. .......
The weather this week has been
dry and sunny Forest fires
in Arkansas cover the whole
state, and cannot be checked. -.
Now, Villa, take Mexico City
and declare yourself dictator and
peace and prosperity may reign
in Mexico-a few days, at least.
1--WE last week gave way to
a political letter, which is an
swered this week. With appre-
citation for the truth, we will not
further allow political questions,
by correspondents; so, gentle
men, save your stamps. ..... From
the number Of wagons daily at
Warrens lumber yard, it would
seem considerable building is go
ing on despite the low price Of
cotton. Those subscribers who
owe us please come in and settle,
or come and say you have no
money. Either will be satisfac-
tory. Nashville Tuesday night
had a 1000 plate Prosperity Ban
qaot. That was some eating.
The Russians. according to last
reports, are putting it up hard
and stiff against the Germans. :.
Cotton is like the war, just hold
ing its own............This is ideal
Thanksgiving weather. Don't
forget the protracted meeting
next week.. 49,. The Central High
School gives a fine play this
Thursday night. Everyone
should be careful about letting
forest fires get out. In .Arkan-
sas great destruction is going on
from forest fires. Hunters
will please remember that no
hunting is allowed on ]. w. Pur-
viance's farms. Cotton rails
ers come here and get prices, and
some go on to Bethel and take
less. $500. We never heard of so
many pie hunters before. Every
man who voted for Rye seems to
expect office. Too many voted
for him to be accommodated.
If you don't find what you want
elsewhere go to Bryant & Richardson;
they have it.
