During the past few years 1t has
been demonstrated that soils Of the
Palouse region are nitrogen hungry"
The question now arises and in fact
has been repeatedly asked, "Shall we
buy and apply artificial fertilizers to
our land to supply this required nj
trogenT" Our answer is "NOt until
we have had time to gather more data
upon the matter"
However, we do advise the con-
servatiOn of all of the nitrogen that
comes from the soil. In nitrogen the
manure produced by single horse Of
average weight, say 1900 pounds, is

pay that much for it If we had to buy
1t as commercial fertilizer at ordi-
nary prices. An average COW will
give manure of nearly equal value.
Leaving out of consideration all
other substances except the one we
know our soil needs, Is it economy to
throw away the manure? Shall the
