USE ASHES AS FERTILIZER
They Contain Potash and Phosphoric
Acid; Also Alkali.

The farm who burns wood for
heating and cooking should carefully
store the ashes and not permit them
to leach, as they have peculiar fer
tilizing value says the University OF
Florida extension division. They not
only contain potash and phosphorlc
acid in appreciable amounts, but also
contain magnesia and lime, and when
applied to the land they also act indl-
rectly to increase the available nitro
oen content of organic matter IN the
soil
Ordinary house ashes contain on
the average about eight or nine per-
cent of potash and two per MT OF
phosphoric acid, according to the U. ).
Department of Agriculture. lnvestl-
gators have considered that there is
enough potash and phosphoric acid IN
bushel of ashes to make 1t worth
more than % cents. Besides that,
some 10 or Is cents additional might
be allowed for the "alkali power OF
the ashes. This power is that which
enables ashes to rot weeds and to Ter.
ment peat. The potash content OF
ashes will be lost if they are permitted
to leach, and care should be taken to
store them in dry place.
Wood ashes may be profitably ap-
piled as a top dressing to. grass Lands
and to pastures, where they will en-
courage the growth of the better kinds
of grasses, which will then crowd out
inferior kinds and weeds Wood ash
es NAV also be used for corn and roots
Because of their lime content they are
not so good for potatoes, altho some
times used for this crop.
Ashes from hard woods ldeclduous
trees) are richer in both phosphorus
ard potash than those from pines and
other softwood (conifers). The ash
es of twigs are worth more for agrl.,
cultural purposes than the ashes OF
heartwood taken from the middle OF
an old tree. In general. the smaller
and Younger the wood burned the pei
tnr the ashes The ashes Of coal 40
not contain enough potash to make
them valuable in this connection
The hulls of cotton seed Weld asheS
,vbich contain from 1S to 80 percent
Of notash and from to 10 percent OF
nhosnhoric acid. At the present time;
however. the hulls a"e used for feed
