From the result of all experiments the follow- ing conclusions are drawn: L‘I. - 1-11 in #kn urn-â€" The Illustration 11-15 Uvuv-uu- v_... w, , Manure applied in the fall to the surâ€" face, either of plowed or grass land, will, by the action of frost and rain, be- come so thoroughly pulverized and dis- tributed through the soil that it acts more quickly and is in better condition for plants to assimilate than the same manure would be if applied in the A â€"â€" __A mauuxu u vu-\- -- spring. The loss from evaporation and drainage (unless the surface is very steep) will probably be much less than the loss resulting from fermentation if the manure is allowed to accumulate in cellars or the Washing if left in open ,....._. On most soils and for most craps sur- face application is better than plowing in, and especially if manure is applied in the fall, but in any case, except for1 manure that is so coarse that it cannot be mixed with the soil by cultivation, it is a safe rule to keep the manure as near the surface as possible and to have it as thoroughly mixed with the seed bed as can be done. This carries with it the necessity of using only such bed- ding and absorbents as are of themselves fine or easily pulverized. For our common field cropsâ€"corn, oats, rye, barley, potatoes, etaâ€"it is not profitable to use more than from 15 to 20 cartloads (5 to 7 cords) of manure per acm. On an average, on New Hampshire soils and with general crops, $1 invest- ed in the best prepared fertilizers has given an increase of crop valued at $2. 34, while $1 invested in the chem- icals (dissolved boneblaclz, mariate of potash, and sulphate of ammonia) has given an increase valued at $3.56. a difference of $1.22 in favor of, and due ,L -__-__ entirely to, the substitution of chemic- { 313 for prepared fertilizers at equal oost.’ This difierence is due chiefly to thel wrong proportions of plant food in the prepared fertilizers, and more to the de-‘ ficiency of potash than any other cause.

If the farmer lived in a grain ~ growing section, every effort was made Ii to produce more and more grain. If, on I the other hand, dairying was followed, no stone was left unturned to keep more ' : cows. Whatever may have been the wis- £ dom of this policy in the past, it is a I question worthy of our careful consider~ ’ ation at present whether or not we 3 I should further continue it. With aview ' to illustrating the advantage of having 5 a. little of everything to sell instead of 1 depending solely on one thing a corre- - spondent of Country Gentleman gives a practical example of what he once saw ' done. He Writes: ‘7 A -â€"â€"n:n‘-nnnn durin: van-u- 7'" bill. By this means he had his butter money to depend upon to pay on his debt in she fall. I Was greatly interested in the meth- ods enployed by the German families who cccupy a great share of the dairy farms in the vicinity of Elgin, Ills. Thea: tenants pay more rent for the bare 3â€" ‘1’-..- Luw- vvuwâ€"vw :7-‘ tam than one will rent for in New Yon: state with a full line of stock and tools. I said to a German farmer whom I net, “You all seem to prosper here; ' “1’ W41 you inform _me how you do It: v- vuv-- take care of the cows and farm crops.

The women and children tend the plat; of cucumbers and pick them. We men Ann vvvâ€" ‘_V very small space. If I remember cor- rectly, the plat was one rod wide and five rods long. Apples may be fed to cows in the fall with great profit. I consider sweet apples, sayof the “pound sweet" variety. nearly as valuable as potatoes for either milk cows or for fattening any kind of stock. I believe if every farmer had enough of this variety *#â€" A â€"“I- fin‘m ‘7'“: w-..“ â€"â€"â€" ~ .. of apples to feed his cows a peck apiece every day they would prove more valu- able than grain in keeping up the milk flow. Of course apples can be so fed as to become an injury. In connection with dairying the potato crop is one of great impOrtanoe. There are few years in which at some time between digging and planting time potatoes will not ibring 50 cents. At this price they are a paying crop, and are worth this to feed cows in winter. I know this will aston- ish many, but, as in other things, there is a right way and a wrong way of do- ing it. Suppose cows are receiving an average of ten pounds of grain a day, if two days each week ten pounds of cut ,, AL. __A‘ UWVUuJu â€"- potatoes are substituted for the usual grain feed there will be no decrease in quantity of milk or butter; in fact, cow's will keep in better thrift for this eemiweekly change of diet. In choosing" what :we will sell from the farm thoughtshould be given to the 'amonnt on! fertility we are removing item the farm.
