MANURE AND FERTILIZER.
Comparative Value by tlie <»rowln«
Teat—On Farm. Laree anil Small.
By FLOYD W. ROBISON. Michigan Ex
periment Station.
There is abundant evident e to show
that commercial fertilizers can never
on the American farm entirely si ; cr
setle the use of barnyard manure.
Pound for pound most fertilizers con
j tain very much more nitrogcr, plrjs
i phoric acid and potash than does barn
yard manure, but in most Instances the
growing test is In favor of the Manure.
There is unquestionably an influence
physical, chemical or bacte"ial or all
together that has a favorable effect on
plant life and that cannot be attrib
uted solely to the nitrogen, phosphoric
acid and potash present. Where all the
products of the farm are fed on the
premises and cared for properly there
should be sufficient manure u> keep the
farm in a high state of fertility, and
on such a farm, in our opinion, the use
of commercial fertilizers would be un
economical.
Commercial Fertiliser.
However, on small truck farms and
on others where but little barnyard
manure Is available the nse of commer
cial fertilizers is commendable. It is
reasonable to suppose that no system
of farming can be permanent that con
tinually robs the soli of nutritive mate
rial without returning something to it
There is no question but that barnyard
manure is the best source at the dis
posal of the farmer to permanently in
crease the productivity of his land. No
other fertilizer is bo lasting in its ef •
fects. The great difficulty with a large
number of Michigan farms Is that it is
impossible to obtain enough of this ma
nure. On such farms commercial fer
tllizers have been used with a great
deal of success, and as the system of
farming more intensive the
use of commercial fertilizers must like
wise Increase. All farmers cannot be
dairymen and stockmen. Some must
sell the wheat, fruits and garden prod
ucts to" support the rapidly increasing
city populations, and such farmers
must replenish in commercial fertili
zers the equivalent at least of that,
which the exported crop removed. The
u»e of commercial fertilizers is not a
fad, and it will not down. The man
who has plenty of barnyard manure,
however, will not buy fertilizers exten
elvely, for they are clearly in a class
below the natural manures, but the
farmer who ha« not barnyard manure
and cannot get it is compelled to use
commercial fertilizers if he should keep
pace with his neighbor in the produc
tiveness of his land.
Sources of Manures.
On a still too large number of Michi
gan farms the great value of farm ma
nures is not appreciated; neither is
there exhibited great familiarity with
the constituents and properties of these
natural manures. The farmer who
would use manures to the best advan
tage must become a student of the
conditions causing the production of
manures and the sources from which
they are obtained. Comparatively few
indeed are the farms where special ef
fort is made to preserve the liquid ma
nure from the stock fed, and yet that
is the most valuable portion of the ani
mal excrement. The author is thor
oughly familiar with countless exam
ples of stables wherein the liquid ex
crement of animals instead of being
saved In the manure seeps through the
cracks and holes in the floor and soaks
into -the ground beneath the barn,
where instead of being of value to the
farmer It becomes a constant menace
to the health of the animals and Uie
Inhabitants of the nearby dwelling.

Clover Seed In Demand.
Owing to the extreme drought pre
vailing in Russian Poland there will
be practically no crop of clover,
and consequently clover seed for next
season must be purchased abroad.
American red clover seed has been
tried with success on other occasions,
and It Is now proposed by certain in
terests to purchase seed In quantity
from America.—Consul Rice, Warsaw,
Poland.
An Kits Laying: Contest In Progress.
A laying competition Is a unique en
terprise undertaken by the Kansas ex
periment station. From Nov. 1. 1904,
to the same day in 1905 the contest
will continue between Barred Plymouth
Rocks, White Wyandottes. Light Brah
mas and Rhode Island Reds. For some
reason the Industrious and trustworthy
Leghorns seem to be passed by.
The turkey crop is late and promises
to be uneven—heavier in some sections
than usual, but in others much below
the average.
LAMBS FOR MARKET.
twes Should Enter Winter In Good,
Well Fed Condition.
The temptation for the farmer is to
put oil the commencement of {all and
winter feeding of breeding ewes to the
latest possible period. This, however,
Is a serious mistake, as frozen and
nonnutritious grasses are totally insuf
ficient to maintain the bodily wants of
the animal, and a rapid wasting of
flesh too often ensues. The loss of
flesh resulting from this treatment is
always expensive to regain. Dr. Witly
combe of Oregon, an authority in these |
matters, strongly urges that care
should be taken to prevent the ewes
from entering winter in an emaciated
condition and that they should be kept
separated from the rout of the flock.
The time of changing from pasture to
winter feed is often a critical period
in the life of sheep, especially so when
no provision has been made t.) supply
succulent food in the form of roots
and silage. An excellent plan to assist j
in modifying the injurious effects of ]
these changed conditions is to coin- j
inence fettling the ilock light rations of i
oats upon the lirst appearance of se-1
vere autumn frosts. Surprisingly good
results will be obtained by feeding one
half pouud of oats per head while the
ewes are yet on pasture.
Winter Housing: and Feed.
, There should be no evil results fol
lowing the proper housing of sheep.
In a warm, humid winter climate close
housing is entirely out of Uie question,
and if adopted evil results will In
evitably follow. If ewes of the large
mutton breeds are to be housed a floor
space of at least fifteen square feet for
each ewe should be provided.
The amount and character of tho
feed given should be governed largely
by the condition of the ewes, and if for
an} - reason they are permitted to enter
their winter quarters in thin condition
no time should be lost In getting them
started on the road to Improvement if
a good crop of vigorous lambs is to be
expected in the spring. If the ewes
enter winter in go&l flesh but little if
any grain will bo required until a few
weeks before lambing time; hence It
is the part of economy to have them
in this condition at this particular sea
son.
Th* Carl> Market I.amb.
With the ever increasing population
of our cities, the high price of beef and
the growing taste for the healthful and
delicious meat of the sheep the produc
tion of the early market lamb seems
destined to be an important factor in
the revenues of the farm.
A good system of producing lambs
for early market Is to select In the ear
ly fall the ewes that are intended to be
retired from the flock and place them
upon a good piece of pasture, rape be
ing preferable. Arrange to have them
iamb early, not later than the last of
January. The winter management
should be practically the same as for
the breeding flock, except that a more
liberal quantity of grain should be glv
eu after lambing. Adjoining the shed
or yard in which the ewes are fed a
place should be set apart for the lambs,
so constructed as to admit the lambs,
but exclude the ewes.
Yt'hen the lambs are ready for ship
ment to market, as they should be at
the age of six to eight weeks, the ewes
from which they are taken should be
given but little If any grain for a few
days or until the milk secretions are
materially checked. As soon as they
give evidence of drying up commence
to gradually increase the grain feed un
til it is brought up to quite a liberal
amount. It is highly important at this
juncture to expedite their preparation
for market with all possible speed, as
at tills season fat aged ewes will com
mand a better price than at any other
time of the year.
Hon to Measure a Stack.
The number of feet required for a
ton of hay depends on the height of
the stack, on the kind of hay, on the
season in which it is put up and on
the amount of moisture it contains.
According to an exchange, the only
way is to find out the number of feet
in a stack and then how many cubic
feet of that kind of hay it takes to
weigh a ton. The amount varies from
a cube of seven feet to a cube of eight
feet, or from 343 to 512 cubic feet. On
the bottom of the stack, particularly
if it be large and well settled, 843 cubic
feet might weigh a ton, while on top
of the stack it might require 512 cubic
feet.
Usually on a square stack sixteen
feet wide, carried up straight as far as
possible and then topped out or cover
ed, It will require from 400 to 450
cubic feet.
One ThlnK and Another.
Apropos of the long list of "easy
work at home" enterprises Rural New
Yorker remarks that "modern condi
tions of industry really leave uo place
for the unskilled home worker, or we
should not hear of poor women in this
city iyho work buttonholes for 9 cents
a hundred or finish overalls for 35 cents
a dozen."
A prediction of "near to the dollar
mark within the next four months" for
potatoes is made by a Country Gentle
man writer.
New York state farmers' institutes
will begin with a "normal" at Geneva
Nov. 21-23. and fifty-eight institutes
are scheduled for various places In the
state from Nov. 2S to Dec. 24, most of
them two day sessions.
An increase In the foreign demand
on apples Is reported.
The rye crop is estimated by the gov
ernment statistician above the ten
year average in quantity and much
above the quality of last year.
Food, comfort and contentment are
the prime factors In successful dairy
ing, and it is not too much to say that
comfort Is the prime factor, says Pro
ffSSOc.Haecker of Minnesota.
A Remarkable Woman.
In the edition of Thomas Pennant's
"Tour In Scotland," printed at War
rington by W. Eyers in 1774, among
other fine engravings is a portrait of
"The Old Countess of Desmond" in
Dupplln castle, N. 8., and particulars
of her age are given in the text. This
portrait represents her at the age of
120, a firm mouthed, strongly marked
woman who lived to the great age of
140. She was the daughter of a Fitz
gerald of Drumana, in Ireland, and
married in the reign of Edward IV.
James, fourteenth earl of Desmond.
She was in England in the same reign
and danced at court with the king's
brother, the Duke of Gloucester, and
died in the reign of James I. The year
before her death, when 139, she took a
journey to London to solicit relief from
the king, the Desmond "house" having
been reduced to a state of poverty.
Francis Bacon in his "History of Life
and Death" states that this lady "did
dentise twice or thrice, casting her old
teeth and other corning in their place."
The Flrnt Paper.
According to Sveii Iledin, the explor
er, the Chinese invented the process of
making paper. On one of his journeys
to the interior of China he found evi
dence that paper of a very fair quality
was in use by the Chinese in about
275 A. D. There is a mill still stand
ing in the province of Chilitung where
paper was made in 280 A. IJ. and iu
the village of I.angtlkiang. In a sub
urb of Canton, the undent town of
Kwangtsu. Mr. Hedin discovered a
hand mill where paper was made from
tree leaves several hundred years be
fore Christ. But this process was very
expensive, and the product was used
only by the very wealthy. He secured
one ancient document written on pa
per made in this hand mill. The date
of the document is 340 B. C., figuring
on the time of the Chinese calendar.
Going Too I.OUK Without Food.
The evil habit of going too long with
out food is one from which many peo
ple suffer In the present hurrying age.
Men sit in their otllces. women rush
about at their shopping, and both be
come so absorbed in their Interest that
the period of hunger is allowed to pass
and the period of fatigue and depres
sion set in. The worst of it is that,
once the second stage is reached, the
desire for food is gone, and after many
hours' abstinence the man or woman
is too exhausted to digest a meal when
cither of them gets it. To avoid this
extreme, it is only necessary to take
the most light and rapid repast during
the hungry stage. A glass of milk or
merely a biscuit while hungry will pre
vent the after loss of appetite.—Science.
NollilnK to Fear.
Judge Rookwood Hoar, brother of
Senator lloar, was noted as a wit as
well as a Jurist. Shortly before his
death, as his daughter entered his
room iu the morning, he said: "My
dear, I had a dream last night, and in
it I saw the angel of death sitting at
the foot of my bed. At first I was
horribly frightened, but as I gazed at
my visitor my fears vanished. He
wore a fur cap."—Brooklyn Life.
The Opportnnlty.
It was night.
They—he and she—were sitting on
the porch looking at the stars.
"You know, I suppose," he whis
pered, "what a young man's privilege
Is when he sees a shooting star?"
"No," she answered. "I haven't the
slightest idea. There goes one!"— Ch
icago Tribune.
When a woman gives up it ia became
she has gone to the utmost limit of
strength and endurance. It is a marvel
how women will stagger on under the
daily household burdens when the whole
body is racked with pain.
For the nervous, run-down condition
which so many women experience, as a
result of overstrain in household cares,
there i 9 no medicine can equal Dr.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. It
strengthens the weak stomach by cur
ing diseases of the organs of digestion
and nutrition. It purifies the blood of
poisons which cause rheumatism and
other painful diseases. It nourishes the
nerves, and builds up the body with
sound, healthy flesh.
There is no alcohol in " Golden Med
ical Discovery" and it is entirely free
from opium, cocaine and all other nar
cotics.
Accept no substitute for the " Discov
ery." There is nothing "just as jjoou "
for weakness, nervousness and debility.
"I want the whole world to know what Dr.
Pierce s medicines have done for me." writes
Mrs. Helen Hardgrove. of Bangs, Knox Co., 0.,
"I had many of the ills of woman's life. Mv
lungs and throat troubled me besides, and I ha 3
rheumatism. About a year ago I hid to give
up work I was so bad. I had heard so much
about vour medicine I thought I would try it.
I took Tour bottles of your ' Golden Medical Dis
covery' nnd 'Pellets,' and by the time I had taken
half of the first bottle I began to gain, and k«pt
on getting better. And now I have no more of
my old ailments and am entirely cured of rheu
matism. I feel like a new woman."
