POULTRY MANURE is RICHEST
On Ordinary Farm Not Much Atten-
tIon 10 Paid to II on Account
of Small Amount Made.

Poultry manure is the richest ma
nure made on the farm, but on the
ordinary farm not much attention is
given 1t, simply because of the small
amount usually made. Poultry ma
nure is valuable chiefly for its large
amounts Of nitrogen and phosphoric
acid, as 1t contains about three times
as much nitrogen and FIVE or six times
as much phosphoric acid as ordinary
farm manure.
