Show FARM and HOME NOTES her sister, Dorothy Richards. A. FULLMER ALLRED a long period of time to be LEAVES FOR COMPOST Don't burn those leaves! A. Fullmer Allred, Box Elder County Agricultural extension agent, says home gardeners can make good use of fall leaves by putting them in a compost pile. "Compost can be made of leaves and any other type of organic matter available around the home," points out Dr. Paul D. Christensen, extension conservationist at Utah State University. For each 100 pounds of dry plant material apply a mixture of three pounds of ammonium sulfate and one pound of superphosphate. Place the organic materials in layers four to six inches thick. Sprinkle the mixture of ammonium sulfate and superphosphate on each layer. Cover with about one inch of soil. Wet down the layers and keep them continuously moist. Add layers, if desired, until the pile is four to six feet deep. Dr. Christensen says composts require from a few months to a year to decay enough to use. Composts made now will likely be decayed and ready to use next spring. A few weeks before the material is to be applied to the soil the pile should be mixed. chicken Farm manure and manure can be composted in about the same way. Unless the manure contains a lot of straw, superphosphate can be used to sprinkle the manure layers in place of the ammonium mixture.
