Manure Losses Stopped
by Early Applications

To test the loss of food elements in
manure that is left out of doors, Ohio
State university agronomists placed
1000 pounds of horse manure in q
wooden box that was not waterproof
and left it exposed from April l to
October 1, Prairie Farmer reports.
During this period there was loss
| of Al per cent of the nitrogen, AZ per
Aeent of the phosphoric acid, 76 per
cent of the potash and 81 per cent Of
the total weight. About Is per cent
of the value of the manure vanished
in this six months period.
The losses from 1000 pounds Of COW
manure exposed under the same condi-
tons were Al per cent of the nitro
gen, 10 per cent of the phosphoric
acid, 8 per cent of the potash and 40
per cent Of the total weight. Thirty
two per cent of the value of the ma
nure was lost.
Early application of manure is rec
commended to prevent these losses.
When applied on pasture. the grazing
value is lost for some time, and not
more than one-third Of the acreage
should be covered in season.

Entomologst. Colorado Agricultural
College.--WNU Service.
Cutworms are most effectively con-
trolled by scattering poisoned bait on
the ground just beneath the plants on
which they are feeding. There is no
practical method known Of treating
seed to prevent cutworm injury. The
poisoned bait may be made Of five
pounds of bran, four ounces Of paris
green, three-fourths of pint Of cheap
molasses and two quarts Of water, If
only small amounts are needed. Larg-
er quantities may be made in the same
proportion.
The poison and molasses should be
mixed in the water. Stir thoroughly,
then pour slowly over the bran. Mix
completely, to insure getting some poi
son on each flake Of bran. With large
amounts the mixing may be done on q
tight floor or heavy canvas with a
hoe or shovel. The mixture should
be crumbly but not sloppy. It should
be broadcast at the rate of ten to if
teen pounds per acre in the evening

ing begins.

Alfalfa Winter Injury

Winter injury and disease, the two
main causes for losses of alfalfa
stands, frequently work hand in hand,
according to the division Of plant path
ology, University farm. st. Paul. Re-
cent studies have shown that the ex-
tent to which alfalfa may be injured
by bacterial disease depends largely
upon the degree of winter injury.
Freezing causes splits or cracks in
the alfalfa roots through which may
enter the bacteria causing various
wits, rots, blight, or other diseases.
This emphasizes the Importance of
preventing freezing injury so far as
possible. 1t has been found that the
amount Of cold the alfalfa roots can
stand without injury depend upon the
hardness of the variety, carbohydrate
reserves contained in the plants, and
soil conditions.

Explaining Purpose of
Use of Corn Cultiyator

The main purpose of corn cultiva-
ton is to kill weeds, and if it can be
done without aerating the soil too
much or disturbing the roots of the
young corn plants. the more successful
the crop will be, state Iowa State col
lege Investigators. Contrary to gen
eral belief, they find, cultivation does
not keep water in the soil. 1t does
kill weeds that would use moisture,
however.
The roots of the corn plant are To-
Gated in the first six or seven inches
of soil. 1t is in this layer of soil that
the most nutrients are found. Sum-
mer rains of one-quarter to an inch
moisten only about three inches of
soil. Stirring of this layer aerates
and dries out the soil and prevents
the roots from securing food and mois-
ture.
The theory that water moves up
ward through the soil capillary sys-
TEN from great depths beneath the
surface has been disproved.

Backlog Vaccination

A Woodbury. (county) Iowa reader
sends US the following inquiry:
"H0w old should calf be to vacci-
nate for black-leg? Is the pill as good
as the serum? Is there any remedy
after an animal once shows symp-
toms? If you vaccinate when the calf
is small, should you vaccinate again
before it is two years old?"
Calves may safely be vaccinated for
black-leg at any age, but the immunity
resulting is not permanent if they are
under six months of age, and they
should be revaccinated as yearlings at
least. Serum is used as curative
treatment after animals are affected,
but is not entirely satisfactory. Vet

In the Clover Field

Thin spots in clover fields can prob
ably be patched up to best advantage
by seeding in oats which may be cut
along with the clover for hay. To do
this the ground should be thoroughly
disked and good seeded prepared.
Unless this is done. weeds will likely
start ahead of the oats and smother
them out. There is little advantage in
seeding more clover or grass on the
spots if the land is to be broken this
fall. However, if the field is to be
carried over for another year, a new
stand of grass and clover can be start
ed with the oats.-Prairie Farmer.
