Ybt manure may lose half its value through improper storage. When fresh it is rich xxx nitrogen compounds and has considerable potash in addition, For many purposes its value may be further improved, by adding phosphate in the stable ox* in the field. Rain Causes Loss 'Manure left out in the open with no protection against rain or snow Will deteriorate. The moisture will wash out valuable fertilizer mater­ ials, It is recommended that man­ ure be 'piled in A concrete bin, With low sides. The size of the bin will depend on the number of cattle supplying manure, Recommended Sizes Recommended sizes foi' manure bins are as follows: 10 COWS, 16 ft. wide, 16 ft, long; i2o cows, 18 ft. wide, 26 ft long; 40 cows, 24 ft. Wide, 40 it. long. The barnyard should be marked off to -the selected size, then A con* Crete floor laid. Low retaining walls on three sides complete the bin.
