LIQUID MANURE is VALUABLE
Nitrogen and Potassium Should Be
Carefully Preserved and Used
for Improving Crops.

The liquid excrement from farm
animals contains nearly half the nj
trogen and potassium voided by them
and should be carefully preserved.
When steers are fed on cement floors
the value Of the manure produced is
more than 81 per year greater for each
animal than when fed on earth floors.
Open barnyard manure Is about one
half as valuable as stall manure. The
least amount Of nitrogen will be lost
from stored manure IL animals are
kept on 1t OF 1t. Is kept in moist,
we'll packed condition. Manure used
In connection with continuous crop
pings will not maintain the maximum
yield, but when used in connection
with crop rotation 1t increases the
yield Of all crops grown in that rota-
tion. Manure used in conjunction with
a complete fertilizer high in phos-
phorus will give better returns than
when either IL used alone.

While the actual treatment Of disease

the information given in the new bulle-
tin will enable sheep owners to recog-
nize symptoms early in their develop
ment and thus avoid losses to their
flocks. Altogether 81 kinds Of diseases
and ailments are discussed.
The sheep industry of the country
has suffered severely from the ravageY
Of infectious and noninfectious dis
eases. In addition to Sthe scientific
names, the bulletin gives the common
names by which the various diseases
are known. A convenient arrange
nent Of cause. symptoms, post-mortem
appearance, diagnosis, treatment, and
prevention makes 1t possible for sheep
owners to obtain practical knowledge
Of the best means for preventing and
controlling sickness in the fiocks.

Of purebred registered sires, good care

5ment Of Agriculture. To care for sur
plus vegetables in many cases requires
nothing more than the use Of existing
facilities in or near the home.
Tomatoes After Frost.
Tomato vines usually have a large
quantity Of unripened fruit when the
sfrosts come. It Is customary to use
much Of this for pickles, but the frost
need not put an end to ripe tomatoes.
II the vines are pulled, or IL they are
cut and the ends sealed with parafiin
or sealing wax, they can be hung up
lin cool cellar and the tomatoes will
fripen and often last for six weeks.
( Another plan is to pick the tomatoes,
wrap them in papers, and place them
In shallow boxes or baskets. e
Lima beans should be picked before
the frost and spread ON slightly
moist cellar floor, where they can be
kept fresh two weeks. They should
be turned from time to time to keep
them from molding.
Cabbage can remain in the garden
until hard freezing weather, after
which L may be kept sound by several
methods. One Of the simplest is to
dig shallow trench in well-drained
portion Of the garden and place the
cabbage, roots up, in it, and cover with
straw and loose earth. For other
vegetables such as Irish potatoes,
beets, and turnips select a well-drained
location, make a shallow excavation,
about nix inches deep, line it with
straw or similar material, and place
the vegetables in a conical pile on the
lining. Cover the vegetables with the
lining material and carry it up sew
eral inches above the apex Of the
pile, having It extend through the dirt
covering for ventilation. The top
needs to be covered with piece Of
tin Or board to Keep out rain and
