PAGE TWO Proper ' Care Manure Would Save Farmers Huge Sums Annually If all of the 8,000,000 tons of farm manure produced in North Carolina each year were properly cared for, the actual value of the plant food contained would amount to over $12,000,000. This would bo equal to about half of the twenty to twenty-five millions spent annually for commercial fer tilizers in the State, declared W. W. iWoodhouse, Jr., assistant agronomist at the North Carolina Experiment The cash value of the plant food contained in the - manure for the average North Carolina farm ia $43. The total production would pro vide for an application of more than three tons per acre each year to every acre planted in corn. Research workers at the Experi ment Station have found that in a corn, wheat, and clover rotation an application of three tons of manure every three years produced an in crease in crop production valued at $4.78 for each ton applied above that produced by the same amounts of plant food from other sources. If the entire 8,000,000 tons were applied to this type of rotation and the value computed on the basis of total plant food contained plus the value of the extra crop increase, it would be worth over $50,000,000, Woodhouse pointed out. Care should be taken so that a minimum of the plant nutrients found in manure escapes. Barns and lots should foe cleaned and the ma terial applied to the fields as often as possible. This should be spread on the fields at once rather than placed in piles to be spread later, the agron omist explained. BALLAHACK NEWS Mr. and Mrs. S. A.
