nf these losses cannot be avoided but many are preventable. One source of enormous loss in the failure to save the liquid excreta which, on the average. contains ahnttt 40 per cent of the nitrog and so per cent of the potash. This loss can be prevented to a large extent by having the stable floor and gutter light enough to prevent seepage, and by using a good bed- ding of straw, shavings, sawdust. peat or other absorbent material There are many other losses which the observant farmer may note and prevent. but space will not permit of their being discussed here. However. with the ' low fertility of our Island soils in mind. great emphasis should be laid on the necessity of caring for manure from the time it is voided llfitlll it is incorporated with the MI .
