B. G. ilei I wish to discover the proper fertilizer to use on my farm. Is it necessary to have a chemical analysis made of the soil? A newer :- -The chemical analysis of the soil tells the total amount of plant food phosphoricfteld and pettish in the saes -but does not distinouish between the available and unavenable supply of these materials in the sod, A chemical analysis is therefore only indicative and is not a sure bard: on which to advise fertiliz- ing practice:. To a farmer that un-. der tails chemistry, of course, it would be of value, but to the average. man, untrained in this science, a chem cal analysis weuld not be of particular assistance. Probably the best. %iris' the practical farmer can get at information as to what fertilizer will pay best on his ell is by choos- ing a plantfood suited to make up for the characteristic weaknesses of the soil and to meet the needs of the crop which is being fertilized. For instance, clay soils are fairly well supplied in all three important plant - foods. After they have been farm- ed for sometime the nitrogen and phosphoric acid become deficient. If you are attempting to grow a good crop of grass on this land you will need to add fertilizer high in nitrogen. If it is grain you are fertilizing a medium amount of nitrogen and relatively high amount of phosphoric acid with a little potaeh would pay best. If these crops Etre to be grown on sandy soil you must keep in mind that sandy soil is poor in all three of the plantfood constituents. Hence, a larger quantity of all three ingredi- ents will have to be used to give sat- isfactory results. d01,1' ; On many flume poultry accounts have been entirely neglected even;. when other accounts have been cares. fully recorded. The result has been. that the farmer has never known' what his hens were doing. In some cases the flack has been a paying pro- position and the hens have received' no credit for the work. The raising; of poultry has not been increased be cause the amount of money the hens: have added to the farm income has not been known, In other cases the flock has been consistently .a losing proposition when the farmer has con-. sidered it as profitable. 'Phis has been due to estimating the amount of food used and the return for the ,eggs. The estimates have been very inaccurate on some farms and the poultry business will be in line for reorganization. The Safest invc.',81.173efit 1); CANADA'S C412 /kJ g r t o' ory .

The time and effort required to keep poultry' accounts is very small, When once the habit of entering up sales and feed bills has been formed it be- comes almoet an instinct to place the hand on the recordebook at the first opportunity after a transaction has been completed. Personally, I feel uncomfortable after a deal until I have had it chance to unload my mind and transfer my rough notes to the columns of the poultry account book, A complicated system of book- keeping is not necessary to determine the profits and losses in the poultry business. The principal point is to record all sales or bills promptly and then at the end of each month it is possible to quickly strike a balance and keow how the business stands. Of course, it is not possible to know exactly how a poultry buiness stands each month because of the growing stock which is being fed. Its value is not definitely known. However, if the receipts and expenditures are carefully recorded, it will be possible to tell the profits in the poultry busi- ness at the end of the year and also make a report on the income that will be accurate and satisfactory.
