Should Manure Be
Taken Out Every Day
Or Left In The Barn?
What's best?•
Some say they like to store
manure in a pile. Others feel that
daily spreading is better. It may
be too late this year to change
your system, but here's What the
Hensall Legion Ladies
Making Plans For
Red Cross Canvas
(By our Hensall Correspondent)
At the March, meeting of the
Hensall Legion on Tuesday evening
plans were made for a Red Cross
canvass, for cash donations, which
commenced the week of March 1,
The group catered for the Bank
of Montreal official opening on
March •4, and will attend the
cooking school in Seaforth, on
March 21 in the evening, sponsor-
ed by Canada Packers,
Members attended the monthly
card party for Zone C.I. at Blyth
last Wednesday. President Mrs.
Gordon Munn presided, and Mrs.
W. J. Cameron won the mystery
prize.
soil specialists say,
"Daily spreading is better than
storing'rmanure in a pile," says
Bill Campbell, soils specialist at
O.A,C, His reasoning;
Stored manure ferments
e=
and leaches in the pile.
2. Fermentation changes i/2 the
nitrogen to ammonia, which is
lost when the pile is opened.
3. It's easier to spend a half
an hour spreading each day, than
a whole week in the spring.
4. You have a eleaii barnyard
the year round.
Daily spreading doesn't work
in all cases. If the land is hilly
or rolling, nutrient losses occur
through spring run-off. But there
is a trick which helps to control
run-off losses; spread manure on
the plowed fields only after
they're well covered with snow.
Another problem in daily spread-
ing is the deep snow of the snow -
belt areas,
Now, there's another problem.
Farmers with loafing barns can't
move the manure until spring.
"The secret here." says Camp-
bell, "is to get the manure work-
ed into the soil before it can
dry out," Spreading on a cloudy
day or just before a rain is i-
deal. The lack of sun cuts down
on the nitrogen evaporation
losses, and the rain dissolves and
washes the nitrogen into the soil.'

Cheapest Fertilizer
Is Quite Often
Most Expensive
"Buying the cheapest • fertilizer
is surprisingly expensive," ad-
mits Professor W. T. Ewen of. the
Soils Department, Ontario Agri-
cultural College.
It's true that low analysis fert-
ilizer will cost you less per 'ton.
But it's the plant food you want
and the cheapest way to this is
in the higher analysis fertilizers.
Here's why: Let's suppose that
last year you could buy 2 tons
of 2-12-10 for $110 ($55 per ton)
laid down on your farm. One ton
of 4-24-12 would give you the
same amount of plant food, but
cost only $90. If you bought the
higher analysis fertilizer you
saved $20 a ton. On a 10 ton
shipment, total savings would a-
mount to $200.
The higher analysis fertilizer
4-24-20, contains twice as many
pounds of plant food as 2-12-10
and hasn't the room for filler.
And 4-24-20 requires only half as
many bags, half the freight and
half the handling charges.
"There are 1 or 2 exceptions
to this general rule of saving
with a high analysis fertilizer,
but anyone with a price list and
a pencil can figure out which
grade is the better buy." says
Ewen.
