FARMYARD MANURE (Experimental Farms News) On many Canadian farms much of the plant food value of barnyard man­ ure is lost through improper handling, states G. R, Hanna, Division of Illus-j =: tration Stations, Experimental Farms* Service. One of the greatest losses is] due to the failure to save the liquid manure which is an important source of nitrogen and potash.' In 1935, a comparison was made at two Illustra- jtion Stations in Prince Edward Is­ land, with liquid manure and chemical fertilizers on the growth of timothy hay. Practically the same amounts of nitrogen and potash were supplied by the sulphate of ammonia and muriate of potash application as were contain­ ed in the liquid manure. The yields from these plots were approximately I equal, the liquid manure giving a lit­ tle higher yield. This would indicate that the value of the fertilizing ingredients in liquid manure would be similar to that of the chemical fertilizers and every care should be taken to conserve this im­ portant source of plant nutrients. Other losses of fertilizing ingredi- < nets are from leaching and fermenta­ tion. Leaching is the result of the drainage from the manure pile tarry­ ing off the soluble elements of plant food. Fermentation 'causes serious losses of nitrogen by the escape -of ammonia. Depreciation due to these .two factors often amounts to neatly half the original value of the man­ ure before it is finally incorporated with the soil. To prevent the loss of liquid man­ ure, the floor and gutter of the stable should be tight enough to prevent seepage, Plenty of straw spread in the stalls and gutter will absorb the li­ quid* The manure should, if possible, be piled in a shed where it will not tie exposed to the heavy rains. If this Is, not.possible, there should be an im- pervious bottom provided for the man­ ure to out down the amount of seep-1 Fresh as the First Breath of Spring — these coats are the last word in distinctive styling, newest silhouette and fine fab­ rics.

More* straw in the. man­ ure will reduce the amount of leach­ ing by rain and drainage water. Because of its loose, open texture, there is a greater loss from fermenta­ tion in horse manure than in cow manure. Mixing these manures uni­ formly and keeping, the manure heap compact and somewhat moist retards are fermentation process. Superphos­ phate or peat mixed with manure will reduce the amount of nitrogen that escapes as ammonia gas. If care has been taken to conserve the urine, there will be a fairly good content of nitrogen and potash in the manure, but phosphorus is usually. To correct this condition, superphos­ phate is sometimes mixed with the manure or put on the land as a sup­ plement to manure. From 300 to 500 i——..... pounds per acre along with 16 tons of manure make a fairly well-balanced fertilizer. Tests conducted on vari­ ous Illustration Stations in Easterii Canada to determine the most suit­ able applications of manure and com­ mercial fertizers showed that the lighter applications of 8 tons of man­ ure used fith 600 to 800 pounds of a complete fertilizer such as 4-8-10 or 2-12-6, give higher yields and are gen­ erally regarded as being more effect­ ive than .-the heavier application of manure alone Or manure with super­ phosphate. These trials indicate zthe the prac­ ticability of using light applications- of manure, supplemented by a com­ plete commercial fertilizer with a re­ latively high phpsphoroUs content fo- meet the requirements of a general­ farming rotation.
