UBWISBURG CHRONICLE AND WEST BRANCH FARMER The Farmer. Economy and Preservation of Farm yard Manure. Ala late mating uf lh" '','l',r", Agricultural Society ol Scotland, Dr. An derson delivered an important lecture cu Ihe '"Economy of M inures," from which We make the following extract : 1 beg it to be understood an my decided opinion, thai farmyard immure must al ways be the fanner's main slay. Good farmyard manure will contain more or less r.f all the constituents of cir crop--, but. in estimating its value, we must he contented to take into consideration only its more imporliuit constituents, un.l, in this way, I conceive we may obtain a sufficiently n.ar estimate, by knowing the ninouut of nitro gen and phosphoric acid which it contains. In the management of farmyard manure, Iwo different questions require to be con sidered. Firsl.lhc production of a manure containing the greatest possible amount of nitrogen ; and, secondly, the successful conversion of that nitrogen in'o ammonia..

In regard to the first of these questions, there is a want of definite infor mation. 1 1 is a common statement, how ever, that the value of the manure is de pendent upon the nature of food with which the cattle that produce it are supplied. That, for instdiice, cattle fed upon oilcake produce suerior manure to those fed on turnips. I am aware that this opinion in not universal, as I have beard it disputed hv farmers of skill and experience. 1 am inclined, however, to believe that U is to a artuin pwient correct. Supposing, then. that two samples of such manure dtfivr, it must be obvious that it is the dung and which differ; the litter ilum will be same in bo:h - o cases. As regards tSe general question of the preservation of mmure. I apprehend that the most important matter is iis protection from air and moisture, la the wny a common dung lieap is made, we have, in fact, exactly the conditions to occasion los of its valuable constituents. It is exposed to a more or less free current of air, which facilitates the volatisation of the ammonia a it is formed ; and it is exposed to the falling rain, which wa.il.es out the sjl jble saltsand what ammonia the winds have spared, into the subjacent sod. It is true that the former of these sources of loss can lie got the better of by use of acids or ol gyrwum, and mixing with dry earth ; but when the ammonia is thus frxed. as it i nirl if t fixed onlv as regard riirniin f.r if i still tohtblr. and liable . i . ..

' "Ve have an other matter to attend to, also, in the man- j ugement ol hrmyard manure its fertnen- lation, namely, by which is meant the pro- duction or such a decomposition as con- j verts the nitrogen present into ammonia, j The importance of this decomposition de- i penda upon the ftct.thnt, by this means, we j obtain a manure which acts with grea-er j ,,;ditv than one in which this decompnsi- j ti . has not been eff.-ctcd. The fact is.tbnt the formation of ammonia, takes place much more slowly, when it b .sbeen in rorpnrnted with the soil, than when it is heaped up in the dung heap; and as the nitrn -en must pass into the state of ammo Ilia before it is absorbed by the plant. we require to ellect as much of thut change j as possible, if wcareto have a mmure of j ra:id action. 1 some places that water stands there.
