from that of furnishing organic
matter and plant food 10 the soil.
1t acts as a protection against
frost in winter and early spring
when the former frequently does
considerable damage. 1t also
holds snow, covering of which
sometimes makes the difference
between a good crop and a prac-
teal failure. Then again, a coat
OF straw spread over the wheat
or other field is one OF the best
forms OF Insurance againstheavy
winds which in some sections do
great deal of damage. Again,
straw acts as a straw mulch and
prevents an unnecessary loss of
moisture. Finally, when it has
served all these purposes, it de-
Gays and enrlches the soil in
plant food and organic matter.
TO burn straw is nothing
short OF criminal. There really
ought TO be a law against such a
practice. AT any rate, many
more sensible argu nents could
be presented in favor of such a
law than can be advanced for
some laws that have been on our
statute books for many years.
Don't burn any straw this year.
II you. cannot use your straw as
stock food or as bedding. spread

The Value of Straw

The fertilizer value of straw is
not generally realized, particular
ly not by the average wheat grow
er. The live stock farmer val
ues straw highly because he
needs it as bedding for his stock
and incidentally also uses it as
absorbent of the liquid excre-
ment. He knows that the liquid
excrement from his live stock
contains even more plant food
than the solid sxcrement andtun
less he employs bedding to hold
, the former, much of it teaches
away,
While II is true that straw has
large value as an absorbent, it
is equally true that it also has a
big vdlue as a fertilizer, when APP
piled direct to the soil in the dry
state. A ton of straw, for ex
ample, contains as much organic
matter as three tons of barnyard
manure, a statement that may
appear rather eXtravagant TO
some wheat farmers, yet one
that is absolutely true. Fu.'
thermore, a ton of straw also con
tains little more plant food than
d ton of barnyard manure, and,
since it contains 1000 pounds of
organic matter as pared with
500 pounds in manure, one can
readily see thatlt has very high
value as a fertilizer.
Ii is generally conceded that
half the value of barnyard ma
nure Is due to the organic matter
X contains. Its nitrogen and
mineral matter are worth about
81 ton, hence its full agricul.
tural value would be $4. Now
since ton of manure contains
abou, 500 pounds Of organic mat
ter, exclusive Of plant food, It
follows that that amount of or
ganic matter must have a value
of about So as fertilizer or soil
improver. That being true, a
ton of straw with as much plant
food as ton of mannre and three
times as much organic matter
would have value, expressed in
dollars and cents, of about $8.
While these figures are not bas-
ed upon actual tests of applying
straw TO land for crop prodic
ton, they are nevertheless based
upon data that cannot be disput.
ed, and call attention to the great
value of straw as fertilizer and
the tremendous waste incurred
in burning or other wise allowing
it to go to waste.
Straw applied to wheat field
at this time of the year or earlier
especially so when scattered
evenly over the land with straw
spreader, has an additional value
entirely separate and distinct
