THE VALUE OF MANURE
On WESTERN FARMS
BY George La Grang'


A number Of times IN the past IL
has occurred 70 ns thai fertilizers
were more highly appreciated thru
north Go where you will, Cheap
lands IN the south are cheap only be
cauSe Of the fact that they are worn
out" On such lands tons and tons of
commercial fertilizers are used every
year. Having been farIned for years
By one generation otter another with
the cheApest-slave-la what did
IL matter II the return were no, 100
per cent perfect. Today, after the
cram Of the soil has been SKINNED
OH and taken away, they find IL nee
cessary 20 feed up the Impoverished
land, and commercial fertilizers are
shipped TO every farm By the car
load. But, while these commercial
products have been found 10 De bene-
fcial to some extent. they have not
given the satisfaction that barn yard
manure have. ! am going to quote
from Bulletin IS OF the Georgia Ex-
pertinent station:
The e&cremeut Of animals consti-
tuies the earliest manure used By man
and i continues 20 BE- the most impor-
tant single source Of fertilizer. IL is
uscd in all countries of the world
where agriculture is the leading pur-
suit As agriculture becomes more in
tenslye. the greater becomes the need
and demand for stable manure,
Truckers and market gardeners feel
the need Of Il so strongly that they
are willing to buy and pay the freight
on this bulky material for two or
thrcc hundred miles.
Notwithstanding the antiquity and
universality Of the practice of manur-
ing with stall manure, there Is no
satisfactory explanation of its super
iofIty over other manures. IL is gen
orally recognized that an application
OF stable manure gives greater and
more lasting benefits than would an
equal amount Of pounds OF phosphor-
Us, potash and nitrogen applied in
any other form. Various explanations
have been given for this well known
fnct
More Than n Fertilizer.
There are four ways possible for
manure to increase the fertility of the
soil: % by plant food introduced.
This amounts To ten pounds OF nitro
gen, two pounds Of phosphorus and
eight pounds of potash per ton Of ma
nurc- t2l BY improving physical con-
ditIon- t3I By change in bacterial
flora; and tD BY the destruction of
toxic substances. That the first two
are Of great importance is well known
but the full benefit cannot be account
ed for by these two alone. Very little
is known of the value of the last two
possibilities. II is only in recent
years that they have been recognized
as possible factors in soil fertility
problems"
We quote this exact merely to
cal attention to two great factors:
ID The superior value of manure
over any other fertilizer in results.
and t2l The three beneficial effects
to the soil that no other fertilizer ac-
complIshes. These understood, the
value Of manure TO the farmer is
greatly enhanced in his own eyes. The
manure pile is changed at once in his
estimation from 4 heap of ill-smelling
refuse. difficult to handle. to n posi-
ton Of commanding influence in
maintaining the fertility of his fields
