' Manure is worth exactly 'what it Will bring in net return frond the in- ereased crops produced. This. amount varies widely depending upon the quality of the soil, the', season, the • crop;ond other factors but it is inter- esting to learn in a general'way its moneyvalue per ton. I On the Central Experimental Farm, rotation of1 Ottawa, where a four-yearrot, mangels, oats, elever and timothy was. manured once every four yearsat the rate of fifteen tons per acre, theanan- nre was , n'or'th gross, ; figuring farm products at pre-war prices, $8,89 per ton. This is the average gross value of each ton of manure .by crediting the application of fifteen tons of man- ure with the entire value of the in - i it:ceasc'1 crus produced over the un mean:red land during' the thirteen years' of • the experiment.. This fi- gure is not, of course, the reale net value of manure, the net value can only be secured when account is taken of the eo ,t of handling the increased crop, the cost of appiyingthe manure to the hind, the interest charges and the sitaro of the machinery charges peracre. When these factors are 03051- dered'the average value of the mane tire le 81,28 per ton. ' It should be - remembered, however, that the larger cost' of handling the increased crop and the. Bost .of applying the manure are largely labor costs which, in many cases, inay be done by the faun` help working additional hours Mit without additional cash outlay. The larger yields, per aero, produce results equiv lent to owning'a larger farm and if the large crops can be handled with- out any extra help, practically' all of the groes value of the 'manure .will be eecered as ineeeased net income, ..hese labour charges, the machinery ehaige and the interest are used only in excel accounting to learn what to credit the live for each ton of e stn Ic e aianure or to Imow'how much to pay for _nent e in, the event it is puechas ed off the farm. 1,Odder methods of valnr t eg manure per; that <of ri eknning� the value of i ,k1YtCicased crop:: produced are Some- ,tmmes suggested. Some 's i geet.rnul- tlplyin the standard, analysis' 01 manure by the market' price or the ,,fertilizer eonstita tit.,' as !mind' in gest rbasing the Value ,oft the ,manure on the fertilizer .value of 'the feed used, asstuning.that'one-half. of the nitrogen, three-euarteks of the Thos.. phorua,anci all the Potash contained,in the feed will appear in the excrement, These methods, however, overlook the variations -in soil wshich may give in: creased crops from manure in .some instances several times as much as in others, Sucli being the case the Ot- tawa figures should 'be accepted only as a general guide until actual trials show the real value on different soils. In any case, the value of, manure per ton will be increased by:uniform spreading, by using a light to sired' iuiia,application. of ten to fifteen tons per acre rather than a heavy applica- tion, and by applying the manure to root oi?ops, corn, potatoes, and hay rather than grain crops. Where bad weeds are not present, unrotted man- ure' will prove more economical than rotted. E. S. Hopkins, Dominion Field husbandman. i.
