Value of'11en Manure -The Work
Horse's Ribs.
It Is claimed that a bushel of wheat
eouta111s. in round .numbers, 13 pounds of
nitrogen, worth 20 cents : 36 pounds of
potash. worth less than 2 cents, and 6
pounds of pbosnhoric acid, worth 2 1-2
cents, or a total us' 29 1-2 cents. One cah-
oot figure on the sb,ling price of what in
estimating the value of the hen's manure.
'The only value u1 the manure will be tee
nitrogen, potash and phosphoric acid,
which the hen excretes. for she cannot
add these substances to the food. Part
el the plant toed in the wheat goes to
develop the lien herself and part goes
into her eggs. In the ordinary flock the
only manure saved is that left to the
house. A fair proportion of the manure
is dropped In the yard or while at range
In the fields. lien manure is more val-
uable, pound for pound, than any other
kind because it is drier. The hen ears
insects and meat which contain mole
nitrogen than grain. Then, too, the liq-
uids and solids in the lien manure are
thoroughly mixed together, while with
larger stock they are separated. The
li0uids contain the only part of the man-
ure that is actually digested or soluble.
They are easily lost, which Is one reason
why hen manure should be dried out at
once with some soluble like plaster.
A heavy draft horse should be long-
, ribbed. If a horse is short -ribbed he'• is
light in his middle, and nearly always 'a
' poor feeder. 1118 stomach Is too small
to contain enough feed to serve him from
one meal to another. When put at hard
work be generally has a fagged -out ap-
neara.nce, A light -centred horse seldom
lt'eighs well. and weight in a draft horse
if it comes from bone, shrew and muscle,
goes a long way toward determining his
commercial value.
Clover is as much an egg producer as
It .is a producer of mills. It • is rich Ina
nitrogen and mineral matter,. having a:
high nutritive ratio. It is equal to bar
-
toy and almost as high as wheat, Its
action is to extend the food ration, re-
duce the too -concentrated grain food and
prevent the accumulation of internal fat.

the best. Clover should be cut in full
