A recent bulletin • from ;the New

gives results of tests with various ma

"Most 'manure preservatives are of

tests the amount of ' nitrogen lost;
ranged f xu .lf per cent., for Manure
treated with &eta ph sphete, to ,fifty' -
!one per cent. for untreated manure."
Immediate •application of the preser-

Wheat straw was four d.to be -detri-
mental to manure. Where the straw
was added to manure applied •to;grow-
lig crops, a dertimentall effect was
noted, as compared with results from
fresh manure alone. The station does
not explain' why this ,is true.
So faras the tests have gone, it
seems that the best results will be se-
cured where aeid phosphate is 'mixed
with the manure as soon as it is voided
and the mixture staged in a covered
shed or pit until such time as it can
be conveniently spread on the field.

Ensilage contains a large per . cent.
of carbohydrate or fat -forming ele-
ments. If pregnant ewes are fed toot
liberally on ensilage they take on flesh
rapidly and soon become sluggish andj.
inactive. This is a dangerous 'condi-
tion far pregnant ewes as it tends to 1
weaken. the growth and development
of the embryo which results in lambs
coming low in vitality and the ; ewes
'lacking in sufficient n:ottrishment for
their newly -barn young. Ensilage will
not take the place e the grain ration.
