SONS BUYERS OF di m NO. 1. & m post-morte- m TINGLEY There are two ways of placing a value on farm manure : One way is to apply the prices per pound of commercial nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium to the number of pounds of these elements supplied in the manure; the other way is to credit manure with the crop increases it produces at given prices for these crops. p Of these two methods the latter is more practical to the farmer. The Iowa station has just Issued Bulletin 236 which tells of the value of manure as found on 43 different fields In various parts of that state. The value of the Increase in crops was computed from a ten-yeaverage price. On this basis and that of the crop Increase credited to the manure, a ton of manure was found to be worth $1.97. The rate of application was eight tons per acre once in a four-yea- r rotation. i ar Get our prices before selling, twine. 3 C3 S3 CHAS.
