NATURAL PER TILIZERS.

Director ef Experi- delivered an address upon this topic, at a convention of farmers and dairymen, recently held at Fredericton. -According to the re- port published by the Co-operative Farmer and Maritime Dairyman he said :

“To farm successfully we must first raise crops. Todo this economically we want large crops and to know how to save and apply fertilizers in order to secure these large crops. Barnyard man- ure was the first and most important fertilizer. It varied very much in its character under the conditions under which it was handled.

The voidings of farm animals oc- cupied the following relative position in quantity of fertilizing ingredients :

1st, Poultry; 2nd, sheep; 3rd, swine; 4th, horse; sth, cow.

A comparison of analysis of these manures showed quite a difference. however, most interested in and horse manure.

The first essential in the care of manure was that the liquids should be preserved. The liquid was worth double the solid, weight for weight, on

Dr. SAUNDERS mental Earms,

| account of the nitrogen and potash in hit. Animals willreturn ‘o

the void- ings from eighty to ninety per cent. of the fertilizing matter of the food which they eat. We should therefore take great care of the manure.

The stable floors shouid first be

B , tight; then we should use enough straw _to absorb these liquids.

By teeding wheat bran much more fertility was put in the manure than when mixed grains were fed.

Ond ton of manure contains nine to ten lbs. nitrogen,six to seven lbs. phos- phoric acid, and about eight lbs pot- Oil cake would add very much e of manure. takes care of the he purchases food, to the fertility of his soil as surely as if he were purchasing artificial fertilizers.

An important action of manure was that it added humus. The latter was exceedingly necessary. It formed a breeding ground for bacterial life and aided in transposing the insoluble plant food in the soi! into soluble; it added also to its waterjholding powers. ‘The more vegetable matter in the soil the more water that soil would hold. \ difference of 30 to 40 tons of water

A farmer who

| to the acre could be maae by the ad-

dition of humus. We must have lots

ofwater in the soil for the growing plant. ‘This feature wis one of the } great values of barnyard manure.

Our soils seem to be naturally fer- tile when compared with European soils, ‘The average soils of Europe contained in the top twelve inches 3500 Ibs- nitrogen, lbs. phos- phoric acid and 3000 to ~~ lbs. Yaaciab, while the average soil of the Maritime Provinces, as acertained by

3500

seventeen analyses, showed them to contain 6247 lbs. nitrogen, 3596 lbs. phosphoric acid and 6510 ibs, potash.

The relatively small quantity - fer- tilizer required for a crop does not dis- turb this quantity of fertility, but much

| of this is fortunately not available and

can <7 be got by good cultiva- tio A lazy man cannot run outa farm. ‘This had been found true in j;the Experimental Farm, Nappan.

| Where the previous owner had allowed the soil to lie undisturbed no crops could be got, but since then, with good cultivation, had yielded abundantly.

| Cultivation would do wonders in mak- |

ing fertility available and it was the farmers who put most brains and work | intothe land who got the best crops. | Thiswas a very wise provision. The an- | alyses of our Maritime soils showed we had good land to work wtth.

As to the quantities of fertility which a crop would take from the soil, he might give them from analyses what a crop of 50 bushels of oats per acre would take. It would be: Nitrogen 30 to 35 lbs;phosphoric acid. 3s to 12 Ibs.; potash, 5 to ro Ibs. In the 2250 1E3. ‘of straw that supported those oats there would be: Nitrogen, 8 to 10 Ibs. phosphoric acid 4 to 5 lbs. ; potash, 2 to 25 lbs. The man, therefore, who elle straw is hurting his land badly. The best system for Canadian farmers was to feed our crops to animals at home.

Another point about barnyard man- ure was that it was most economical to use before it had time to ferment; there always seemed to be a serious loss where manure was kept.

Atthe Experimental Farm with an

eleven-year experiment, they had ae | that

><>

in growing grains upon equal? ‘

» | we ights of manure fresh from the stable |

a |: and manure well rotted, they had the |} following results: Wheat on rotted manure, 20 bus., 56 Ibs. ; on fresh, 20

bus., 52Ibs. Barley on : rotted manure, 34 bus., 34 lbs : fresh 35 bus., 21 Ibs. Oats, 48 bus. 2 14 lbs. on rotted manure and 54 bus., and 17 lbs. on fresh. The importance of this fact would be realiz- ed when we knew that it took over two tons of fresh manure to make one ton in six months rotting.

At Ottawa they had made a pile of mixed cow and horse manure and weighed it every month for six months, with the foll lowing result: It first weighed 8000 lbs. At the end of one month. 5530 Ibs.; at the end of two months, a, 278 lbs. ; at the end of three months, 3,947; at the end of four months, 3,480 lbs. ; at the end of five months, 3142 lbs; at the end of six months was justin the condition of ordinary well rotted manure.

As was above stated it did not then give results equal to the fresh manure. This was a most important fact when we came to consider the immense quality of manure made in Canada.

The objection that weed seeds were put on in fresh manure did not make much difference where it was applied to root crops. A common practice was to put it out in small heaps,

The decomposition of this material in the soil was of great benefit. By all means have the manure decompose in the soil

Ques.— Would it be just as well to spread the manure on the snow? Dr. Saunders—It the land is not

hilly it would. (Continued on page 8 )

TEST THE “222

are — KIDNEYS $=. Dr. A. W: Kidney-Liver Pills

It’s a simple matter to test the kidneys. You need not consult a doctor. By asking yourself three questions you can determine whether or not your kidneys are deranged.

First: ‘‘ Have you backache, or weak, lame

: ‘Do you have difficulty in urinating or a too frequent desire to urinate ?”

Third: ‘‘ Are there deposits like brick dust in the urine after it has stood for twenty-four hours ?’”

In its earlier stages kidney disease is readily cured by a few boxes of Dr. Chase’s Kidney- Liver Pills, a preparation which has made Dr, Chase famous throughout the world for his wonderful cures of diseases of the kidneys.

if you have kidney disease you can take Dr. Chase's Kidney-Liver Pills with perfect confid-

ence that what has proved an absolute cure in so many thousands of cases will not fail you.

So long as the cells of the kidneys are not completely wasted away, as in the last stages of Bright's diSease, Dr. Chase’s Kidney-Liver Pills will give them new vigor and strength and maxe them strong, healthy and active. One . a dose, 25c. a box, at ali dealers, o
