TREES ON PASTURE

Perhaps one of the greatest sources
of loss Of fertility from pasture. soils
results from the poor location of shade
trees and brush, accor ding to the author
Of The Grazing Industry of the Blue
grass Region, bulletin recently pub
lished by the department. Trees and
brush. he states, should always be set
on the higher portions of the field and
not along the banks of running streams,
as so often is the case. With good grass,
the animals do not Craze more than one
third of the time; the rest of the time is
spent lying down or standing in the
shade fighting flies. Hence much of the
manure that is made does not get back
directly on the land that produced the
grass. If the manure produced while
the animals are not grazing is deposited
on the tops Of the hills. its beneficial
effects on the grass may be noted for
several rods down the hillsides. 1t is
easy to believe that if one-half to two
thirds Of the manure is lost from pas
ture fields and none is added, the crops
must gradually deteriorate.
Gunnison news-champion., 1916-10-20
MANURE sPREADERs ARE
GOOD INVESTMENT on FARM

The greatest waste in manure comes
from the neglect to spread it, and dur
ing the Colorado feeding season, the
yards should be cleaned up every two
or three days and the stuff hauled out
to the fields. This requires manure
spreader as it is too big job for man
attempt with pitchfork. It seems to
be pretty well settled that spreader
returns good figures on the investment.
II the manure on 100 animal farm is
worth el5 or $40, each the net asset on
such ranch means several hundred dol
lars worth Of the best fertilizer in the
world. OF course there is difference
in manure spreaders. Some are built
to sell, and some of them are sent out
for service. The farmer who intends
buying one should make sure that it has
the widest possible distribution, which
is best accomplished thru breaking up
the substances SO that it falls in fine
shower instead Of being thrown out in
Jumps.
