That nicely situated resid-

ti. Trueman inquired if it was not | largely moisture which escaped in try- ng to rot manure?

Dr. Saunders—The sa nples would contain about equal quantities of water, so that large quantities of fertitising { mattcr must have passed away.

W. S. Tompkins—In composting

manu With MUCK, NOW MUCN Manure would you put? | ih

Dr. Saunders—I would use five or six inch layers of manure.

A member,—Would youspread man- ure on two or three feet of snow ?

Dr. Saunders--If the ground was not a side hill or subject to surface wash I would. hb

(Ques.—Can fish waste be used to advantage alone ?

Ans.—If it is covered in the soil it will give good results.

Ques.—Is there any loss in leaching lime and ashes. ?

Ans,— Yes,

A voice.—A great many farmers pile their buckwheat straw and burn it. Is there any valye in buckwheat straw?

Dr. Saunders—That would be a wasteful process; there is considerable yaiue in buckwheat as in other straws.

Ques.—How does buckwheat im- prove the land ?

Ans.—By adding humus to the soil and also lightening it up.

J. F. Tilley—What ts the difference in value as between horse and cow manure? «4

Dr. Saunders—It depends on the preservation of the manure. Morse manure should be the strongest but it generally gets burned.

J. Reid—I find that cow manure is always the best and I have had exper- ience with both kinds well preserved.

Dr. Saunders—You must not form conclusions from oné or two years’ experience.

One ton of fresh hofsé manure con- tains in the solid portion, 8.8 lbs. ni- trogen, 3.4 lbs. phosphoricacid and 7 Ibs. potash. In the liquid, 31 Ibs. nitrogen and 30 Ibs. potash, while the cow manure only contains in the solid, 5-8 lbs. nitrogen; 3.4, lbs. phosporic acid ; 2 Ibs. potash, ahd in the liquld, 11.6 lbs. nitrogen afid 9.8 lbs. potash,

W. S. Tompkifi8—Has not buck- wheat some power Of enriching the land in addition to the features already spoken of ?

Dr. Saunders—Buckwheat during its growth converts a certain part of the fertilizers in the soil into soluble form and this decays and furnishes plant food and the humus. But in the case of buckwheat it gives nothing to the land except what was in the land.

W. S. Tompkins—Does it not make the soil more friable and so allow some ammonia to go in from the air ?

Dr. Saunders—Ammonia would not go in appreciably in that way. The plowing under of buckwheat roots would add humus to the soil.

The value of clover was altogether different. It had the power of absorb- ing nitrogen from the air through the action of bacteria on its roots. These bacteria invested little nodules on the roots of the clover plant. They came from germs present in the soil.

Ten lbs. of clover seed should be sown with every grain crop. The clov- er does not effect the crop that year being neither | detritnental nor bene- ficial.

acre to the soil. They had tried an experiment with sowing some grain land with clover

land some without, They found that

the next season the Banner oats yield- ed 11 bus. to the acre more where the clover had been sown than where there was no clover.

| ear the same plots had been used and had Mensury barley on them.

The wheat plot without clover gave

sixty-one bushels of barley, with clover, seventy-eight bushels; the oat plot without clover gave eighty-one bushels, vith clover, 107% bushels; one barley ot without clover gave 71 bushels, with clover, eighty bushels ; the other narley plot without clover gave sixty- seven bushels, with clover, eighty and one-half. The clover was grown the year previous and plowed under in the fall in each case. vO wy

It will be seen the influence lasts in- to the second year.

Another test had been made with Banner Oats and potatoes,

On the plot where no clover was sown with the grain the previous year there were 627 lbs. oats ; where clover was sown, 784 lbs.; potatoes planted en plot without clover, yielding 3,025 Ibs. while with clover they gave 4,208 Ibs.

The evidence seemed very conclu- sive that we should always sow clover.

Ques.—Would it pay to buy clover seed to put on all our land ?

Dr. Saunders—Yes, that is my opinion.
