HAUL MANURE FOR
VEGETABLE GARDEN
Fertilizer Should Be Piled During
Winter So 1t Will Be Ready
for Spring.

Manure should be hauled and piled
during winter SO it can rot and be in
good condition to spread broadcast or
in the drills for the early vegetables.
Two loads of coarse, strawy manure,
when rotted, will make one load Of
rotted manure.
If manure is to be broadcasted it
will take fully twenty loads of coarse
manure when rotted to cover one acre.
Truckers and farm gardeners spread
the manure in the drill or put it in
the hill. When used this way six two
horse carloads of rotted manure will
be enough for one acre.
Owing to the scarcity of manure
in the city, rye and sand vetch. cow
peas and buckwheat are largely sown
for green manure. These crops are
plowed down when in bloom, ground
rolled after blowing and the top sur

The manure for vegetables should

PRESERVATION OF
POULTRY DROPPINGS
!:
Farmer Can Materially Add 10
His Earnings by Caring
for Hen Manure.

A recent bulletin of the Maine ag-
.icultural experiment station shows
that the poultry man or farmer can
materially add to the profits of his
business by properly caring for the
droppings of his fowls. For example,
1t is shown that the droppings from
1000 fowls, if preserved without need
less loss, are worth at least $500 per
annum, and this estimate is based OIL
the assumption that less than half of
the droppings, or only 80 pounds per
hen per year, can be collected.
According to the Maine station, the
droppings should be collected daily
and mixed with substances which will
O prevent loss of nitrogen, (2) add
sufficient potash and phosphoric acid
to make better balanced fertilizer,
and 90 to improve the mechanical
condition of the manure SO that it can
be applied to the land with manure
spreader.
This can be done as follows: To
each 30 pounds of the manure add 10
pounds of sawdust, good dried loan,
or peat. 16 pounds of acid phosphate
and 8 pounds of kainit. Such a
mixture will contain about 1925 per
cent of nitrogen, As per cert of phos,
phoric acid and 2 per cent of potash.
which, used at the rate of two tons
per acre would furnish SO pounds OF
nitrogen. 1876 pounds of phosphortc
acid and so pounds of potash, and at
the present price of fertilizing ingredi.
ents is worth about $40 per ton. The
mixture would furnish a well-balanced
stable fertilizer, which, although not
fine enough to work well in drills, can
be successfully applied with manure
spreader. The treated manure should
be well sheltered until time to apply
to the land-that is, shortly before
blowing.

Heavy farm horses help to solve the
labor problem.
Promiscuous experimental breeding
has been the bane of the horse-breed-
ing business.
A aforementioned draft colt, with
its early education largely completed,
is one of the most valuable finished
products of the farm.
The farm mare fills a most impor-
tant place in production.
Oats and bran in equal bulk, with
one-fourth corn added, make good
ration for mare giving milk.
Foal shows should be made great
factor in encouraging the improvement
of farm work horses.
AE long as inferior horses are so
high in price there is no inducement
for the penurious breeder to patronize
the grade stallion.
If breeder desires to maintain size
in his horses he must feed them liber.
ally.
Growing good horses to sell among
the better class of farmers is the SAT-
est branch of the business for most
farmers to practice.
Grooming instills vigor into the
horse, and the removal of dirt and the
stimulation Of the skin go far toward
preventing harness sores.
Soundness should be the basis in
the selection Of draft stallion.
1t takes two or more crops of colts
to establish stallion in any locality.
The man who uses draft mares to
perform his farm work cannot afford
to put them in the hands of an incom.
petent hired man.
Many men have obtained profits
from moderate beginning in breed
ing draft horses.
The deceit and trickery practiced by
slick statesmen in selling draft stall
lions on the company plan has done
great injury to the cause of horse
breeding in many sections.
A horse with a good disposition,
built on good, clean legs, with ample
depth of chest and middle, will keep

warner La Speaker.-Irvin B.
Warner, city superintendent OF
The Dalles schools, delivered the
commencement address to the
members of the graduating class
of the Dufur high school at Du-
fur last night. Mr.. Warner was
invited to deliver similar ad-
dress to the graduating class of

high school, but was unable to
leave his work here. Mr.. War
ner was city superintendent at
Mountain Home mine years and
the invitation shows he Is highly

Wouldn't that jar you? To think

yearning for "Old Top to the ex-
tent of some one inviting him to de-
liver the commencement address!
The School Board did NOT invite
him, so who did? But then Warner
was always long on invitations and
offers of a raise In salary that never
materialized, until The Dates bit.
The statement that Mr.. Warner was
superintendent at Mountain Home
for nine years Is true, but that is
only part of 1t. Some more of the
truth is that during a great part OF
that time there was a strong effort
made to get rid Of Mr.. Warner that
developed into one Of the bitterest
fights it has ever been the mlsfor-
tune of a school to go through; a
fight that was only prevented from
being successful by electing the old
board year after year; by the use OF
colored ballots and other question
able methods; a fight which, In the
words of the present able superintend
emit delivered at an open meeting OF
the Development League some time
since, was accountable for the de-
''plorable" condition In which he
found the school here (25 per cent
below normal, etc..
Whether the "deplorable condition
that existed in the school was the
fault of superintendent Warner, or
of those who exposed the conditions,
1t is not our purpose to here discuss.
For the purpose of the article we
would be perfectly willing to assume
that Mr.. Warner and the "close
corporation board" were entirely
In the right, and the people entirely
In the wrong, but people here don't
love Mr.. Warner, they don't want Mr..
Warner back and they did not show
their love and affection for him by
inviting him to deliver the commence
ment address; and the fact that they
did not, doesn't show that he was
or was not highly respected in his
former home"
There has been a marked disposi-
ton to let Mr.. Warner alone since he
left here, but there Is just as mark
ed disposition to have Mr. Warner
succeed or fail In his new field on
his own merits and record made In
The Dalles, unaided by the high
respect In which he was held here.
In fac, they resent the Haunting OF
their love and affection. Mr.. Warner
would succeed better to drop us as
we have him.
