Clover ad a Manure.
In the last number of Moore's Rural
New Yorker, we find an elaborate article
on the•value of clover for plowing under as
k manure. We make the following ex
tract which may interest the farmer:
"The manurial value of clover, as has
been already remarked, is greater than
that of any other plant which can be as
economically employed. Easily and chea
ply raised, affected by few of the casuali
ties so common to most crops, and in a
form readily applied to the soil, it takes''
high rank as green manure. It is an avai•
labia means of returning to the soil not
only the materials which the plant has
drawn out of it, but the additional organic
matter which the plant itself has elabora
ted from the atmosphere. 'lt has decom
posed,' says Dana, 'daring the short time
of its growth, more silicates and salts than
the air could effect during the same period
which, being turned in, restore to the soil
from whieh they grew, salts and silicates
in a new form, whose action on vegetables
is like that of the alkalies.'
"It is a question of much importance
in agriculture, whether we had better
plow clover under in the height, at allow
it to ripen and partially dry and decay.
Some contend that it possesses far the grea
test value in the latter case, and their ex
periments show it to be so. This is ek
plained by the authority of the above quo
ted, as 'a result of the fact that dry plants
give more organic matter than green.—
Green plants ferment, dry plants decay.
A large portion escapes in fermentation : as
gas and more volatile products are formed,
than during decay. The one is a quick
consuming file, the other a slow moulder
ing ember, giving off; during all its prog
ress, gases which feed plants and decent
pose the soil.'"
What constitutes value in Manure.
We derive the following article from a
paper recently read before the London
Society of Arts by Mr. J. B. LewEs, the
well known English agriculturist :
"The term manure includes a great va
riety of substances, from the disgusting
mass of corruption, the very odor of which
is almost sickening,to the purest and most
delicate crystalized salts. It is not one
of the least of many beautiful and econo
mical arrangements which we see around
us, whereby the Almighty has endowed
the same particles with the property of
entering into a vnriety of forms, at one
time the most offensive and at another
the most attracTive. In this ever chang
ing circle nothing is without its value—
nothing is lust. whilst therefore, matters
in one sense waste, and refuse have their
absolute value when considered in a sci
entific point of view, they have at the
same time an independent value as arti
cles of commerd; and to assign to each
its proper money equivalent is a most im•
portant of scientific and econimist agri
culture.
"The crops grown by the farmer are
found to be composed of a number of, dif
ferent elements; and if the soil were on•
ly a medium of support to the roots of the
plants, and neither it, nor the atmosphere,
furnished any of these elements, the art
of manuring would be simple enough—it
would be confined to replacing the ele
.ments contained in the crop exactly in the
same proportion in which they were re
moved from the land. It happens, how
ever, that a certain portion of each of the
elements which the plants produced con
fain, are furnished either by the normal
soil, or by the atmosphere, but some of
them do not in sufficient quantity for ag
ricultural purposes. The economy in
manuring consists, then, in adding those
substances to the land of which supplies
train the soil and the atmosphere will be
deficient. In order to ascertain experi
mentally, which of the various constitu
ents of our agricultural plants i# is most
important to supply by manure, it is neces
sary to grow each particular crop for a se
rtes of years with different manurial mix
tures, in some cases supplying the various
constituents separately, in others with two
or more of them combined together. By
following this course, and carefully weigh
mg the product obtained, a knowledge is
by degrees acquired of the relative value
and importance in a manner of the differ.
eat ingredients.
illustration of the usefulness of this
kind of enquiry, I propose to refer to you
to a few experiments of the kind in ques.
tion, which have been conducted by my.
self on the wheat crop. The result I have
selected for this purpose are those of the
seasons 1844 and 1854. Between those
periods there is an interval of nine years,
during which the same experimenting has
been going on upon the same plots of land:
but as these intermediate results are of the
same character as those of the year 1854,
I shall omit all reference to them as un
necessary for the explanation of my sub
ject
