One of the most vital factors of productive and, hence, prosperous farming is the care and preparation of the soil. This is true with respect to beet raising, first rank phase of fa'ming heie in Cache valley. Beet growers in this section, now that spring is really setting in, are thinking and working on the preparation of the soil for the beet Beed from which they hope to grow a profitable crop by early fall. A major phase of soil preparation is fertilization. The Farm o Messenger, a publication of the Sugar company, in its Mach number just off the press, contains an informative article by Asa C. Maxson on How Much Manure Per Acre? The article is reprint from Through the Leaves. Here are what seem to be some timely excerpts that should prove valuable reading to the Cache beet grower now preparing for spring planting. "The effects of organic matter are numerous and Varied. It stimulates chemical changes and the activities of those soil organisms which play so important a role in soil fertility building. During the process of decomposition, carbon dioxide gas is produced. This is absorbed by the soil w'ater giving it greater power to dissolve the mineral plant foods contained in the rock fragments, thus making unavailable plant food available. This in turn increases the soils productivity. Organic matter increases the soils ability to hold water. This helps the crops grown to withstand drouth and prevents the loss of plant food by seepage. . . "All crop residue such as straw and cornstalks is composed g material which is destroyed by very largely of burning. Such materials should be returned to the soil without burning. Because of certain temporary ill effects, one of which is a rapid drying out of the soil, which large quantities of straw or like material may have upon the soil when plowed under, the Practicejpfapplying these directly to Jhe soil may not be advisable. A better way is to use them to Increase the amount Of barnyard manure produced. Organic matter is best added to the soil in the form of barnyard or feed lot manure. When this is done, the ill effects of the materials just mentioned are very largely eliminated. . . The material placed in the barnyard or feed lot becomes broken and partially decomposed so that whatever plant food it contains becomes more quickly available to crops. . . . every farm should produce the greatest amount of manure possible. . . The amount of manure produced by farm animals will vary with the kind of animal, the age and size of the animals, the kind of feed and the amount of bedding used. . . While the manure left on fields while stock is confined to them is valuable as far as it goes, it is of relatively small value when compared with the manure that is produced in the barnyard or feed lot. Whee farm animals are kept confined to barnyards or feed lots the entire time, and sufficient bedding is used to keep them clean, the following amounts of manure are produced yearly on the average: Sheep, 0.622 tons per animal; horses, 13.359 tons per animal ; hogs, 3.051 tons per animal ; cows, 8.023 tons per animal. . . The quantities of tnanure collectible from these same animals is made for amounts, left-ia.pasture, while r at whij allowance work, and in other places where it cannot be collected are approximately as follows : Sheep, 0.40 tons per animal ; horses, 5.20 tons per animal ; hogs, 0.60 tons per animal ; cows, 5.45 tons per animal ; other cattle, 4.00 tons per animal. . The amounts given in these tables can be increased quite materially by using straw and other waste material in excess of the amount actually required to keep the stock clean. - Increased Yield per Ton of Manure The answer to this question involves a consideration of the increased crop returns per ton of manure applied since the cost of applying a ton of manure is the same regardless of the quantity applied per acre. As a result of studies conducted at the experiment station at Logan, Utah, we have the following through the courtesy of Prof, Geo'ge Stewart. Manure was applied at rates varying from 0 to 40 tons per acre. These were compared with crops produced without manure.
