QUESTIONS ANSWERED
Relative Valms of Home Ma

Forcn* Many to l«« the Other—
and tlie linportnnce of Judicious Feed
inf —The Very Heat Plan for huvin,; anJ
Protecting the ltlMiiur.:«.
Dei-a.btmk.vt of
Atlanta, Jan. 1, 1805.
Question J.—Which pays l est fertil
ising with home manures or with com
mercial fertilizers?
Answer I.—The advocates of both
systems bring forward very strong
reasons to support their respective
positions, bnt the deciding of
this question, like so many oth
era in farming, depends in a large do
gree on individual conditions and envi
ronment. Undoubtedly where both
have to be bought, commercial fertili
zers yield a bettor return on the same
amount thau the home manure, but if a
farmer is so situated that he can feed
his stock for milk, buttor, cheese and
boef, he can, at the same time, produce
manures of the highest value, and thus
utilize every product of the farm to
the very best advantage. It is on the
same principle that the small merchant,
by selling on a strictly cash basis, is en
abled to turn his capital over and over,
and realizo a larger interest on a small
er investment than his more wealthy
neighbor who takes the risks of long
time and doubtful collections. We have
always maintained that the use of farm
yard manure and fertilizers should go
hand in hand. In confirmation of this
position the following from Professor
Brooks, of Amhurst Agricultural col
lege, is pertinent and complete. The
whole question is most interesting, as
well as important, and farmers should
lose no opportunity of gaining informa
tion from every source which may shod
light upon it. Professor Brooks says:
Wo sometimes road or hoar language
which would load one to think that in
tho minds of some there oxists a notion
that there is something of a conflict be
tween manures and fertilizers. This is
far from my idea upon this question. It
is clearly the part of wisdom, first, to
make the utmost of home resources.
There may be crops or thero may be
soils or fields for which, under certain
circumstances, it is preferable to use
fertilizers rathor than manures; and, of
courso, when ono must purchase the
elemonts of fertility it is an important
question whether thoy can be more
cheaply obtained in manure or fertil
izer, and l believe tho decision must be
in favor of the latter; bnt these facts
really iudicato no necossary conflict be
tween the two classes of materials.
There is clearly room enough for both.
Uixm most of our farms tho supply of
mannro is insufficient. The majority
of farmers use some fertilizer. It is
generally wise for tho ordinary crop of
the fafm to use these in connection
with each other, rather thau separately.
Tho physical effect of tho manure is
generally desirable, and oannot be ob
tained by the use of fertilizers. It pre
vents in a mannro tho cohesion of the
particlos in heavy clay and thus lessens
the probability of baking and cracking,
and it seems to increase tho capacity of
the lightor soils for moisture. The con
stituents of manure are also in many
cases loss promptly available than in
fertilizers. It is desirable to employ
tho latter to give tho crop a quick start.
And finally, the manure is more com
plete in its composition thau the fertil
izer. The manure roplaoos, at least in
part, tho soda, magnesia, silica, etc.,
removod in crops, while most fertilizers
do not. We may, it is true, raise crops
for many years by supplying the three
elements, nitrogen, phosphoric acid and
potash (incidentally limois applied with
the phosphate).
Lawes and Gilbert have raised wheat
50 consecutive years on the same land
on ammonia salts, superphosphate and
sulphate of potash; and at the present
time the yield is nearly as great on this
land as on that which has received 14
tons yearly of farmyard manure for the
same length of time; but the yield on
the fertilizers now begins to show a
tendency to fall off, and there can be
no doubt that the more complete com
position of the manure is proving an
advantage. Of course, in Ruch mate
rials as common salt, sulphate of mag
nesia, etc., we may replace, if consid
ered desirable, the soda, magnesia, etc.,
carried off in the crops, but even such
replacement would leave us without the
physical effect of manure—an effect
which we may, it is 'rue, in part secure
by turning in a greou crop. Under
many systems of cropping, however,
green manuring is inexpedient.
Question 2. —In view of the present
interest in dairying, I would like to ask
how much manure can be expected
from each cow? From careful reading
on this subject, 1 conclude that the main
profit is iu the manure, which if prop
erly handled, goes to increase the fer
tility of the farm.
Answer 2 —Recent experiments have
shown that a medium sized, well fed
cow will produce 14,431 pounds of solid
and 6,454 pounds liquid manure in a
year, or about 12 1-2 tons. This does
not include the weight of any absor

bant which may be used to better pre
serve the manure. When the farmer
realizes that this 12 1-2 tons contains 80
per cent, of the fertilizing value of the
food consu lted, the importance of judi
cious feeding and of savin# this ma
nure so as to put back on his land as
much as possible of this B<> per cent, of
plant food, is clearly soon.
Question 3. — What is the very best
plan for suv.ng and protecting manure?
Answer B.—ln gen -ral terms a rain
proof shelter with a perfectly tight floor
is the best. The utmost care should
govern the selection of a site for the
mac ure pile. The bottom should be so
arranged that the liquid can neither
letch nor drain away, and if the whole
is covered, we have as perfect a recep
tacle as can be marie and such an in
vestment pays for its cost several times
over in the saving of elements other
wise wasted. In our own experience
we have found that a pit, which we
have had dug just at the back of the
stable, the clay floor made perfectly
hard and sheltered by a close roof, an
swers every purpose. Into this pit the
manure is easily thrown through the
back stable door, and if carefully and
closely packed and on each layer a lit
tle kainit, phosphate or plaster be
sprinkled, a comparatively small
amount, certainly not more than 5 to 10
per cent of the fertilizing properties,
will escane.
SOME RESOLUTIONS,
The Eipmio Account Greeter Than the
Income —\ K incly Suggested.
Passed unanimously by the house of
representatives:
Recognizing and deploring the de
pressed oouditiou of agriculture in this
state, and desirous of alleviating the
same, we offer the following remedy as
the sense of this committee:
We will waste no time in discussing
the causo. The disease is upon us, be
ing felt in every farmhouse in Georgia,
soon to reach the center of every town.
Our expense account lias been greater
than our income. We must cut down
expenses or increase the revenue, or
moot bankruptcy surely and swiftly.
Looking to cotton as our source of rev
enue, it is impossible to increase the in
como by increased production, when a
big crop will bring less than a small
one. Therefore we wonld advise the
Sowing of oats, wheat and rye, in
abundance, at least 10 acres to the plow-,
before Christmas, if possible, if not the
first tiling in January. Prepare woll
and sow on good land, with a view to
pasturing the same or of cutting hay
after removing grain. Thou prepare
three-fourths of your land for corn,
groundpuas and fleldpeas; keep cotton
seed and manure corn. It will not pay
to sell them at present prices. Plant
vegetables, sugarcane, potatoes, etc.
Do not plant over JO acres of cotton to
the plow.
Do not use any commercial fertilizers*,
clean out the fence corners; haul litter
in cow lots and horse lots, etc. We
have used 300,00 c tons of guano this
year, costing about $0,000,000, taking
one-third of the cotton crop of the state
to pay for it. We recognize that it
will increase the crop, but abundance
now means poverty to the producer.
Why, we can’t understand, we simply
deal with facts. At a tixed price of 8
cents we would udvise the use of
guano, but when increased production
reduces the price to 5 cents, then it is
suioidal to use it. If all cotton grow
ing states would unite with ns (and we
hereby implore them) and refuse to use
guano next year, we would reduce the
crop in our judgment from 9,000,000 to
0,000,000 bales, and obtain more for 0,-
000,000 than for 9,000,000 bales, besides
saving the guano bill. It is not profit
able to buy guano and pay for it with
5 cent cottdn even with a good crop;
with u poor crop it would simply mean
destruction. Buy no wagons, no bug
gies, no mules, nor horses unless you
are out of debt aud can paycash; econo
mize in every way.
The above plan will bring more hogt,
rnoro beef, more milk and butter, more
chickens and eggs, more colts; would
require less labor, less expense, less anx
iety, less risk. It will bring more
money, pay back debts, bring poaoe,
prosperity aud independence to the
farmers of Georgia and the south
Wo would ask our fellow citizens of
every calling to aid us in our honest
efforts for relief. Wo would ask mer
chants and bankers to be ns leniout as
possible. The ootton has oomo and
gone, the bales were there, but tho pries
was lacking, though through no fault
of merchant or farmer, we therefor*
would counsel forbearance from cred
itor to debtor, for the farmers of Geor
gia are an honest, debt-paying people,
and while many are now unable to
pay, it is not due to is lack of disposi
tion. Wo would ask our towns people
to buy all thuir supplies possible from
tholr customers. In many sections we
have broad, meat, beef, lard, corn, hay
and provisions of all kinds —enough for
country and town —and we would ask
our merchants to encourage farmers to
produce these thing by buying from
them instead of imp irtlng tha same.
In other words let our people linve
among themselves as much as possible.
Wo have made the money, but sent it
away from home, never to return, until
we ohaugo our methods.
On this line we would say that our
ootton should be spun at home; out
wagons made, buggies, shoos, furniture,
etc., so that money produced in Georgia
would stay in Georgia. We would alsd
advocate any policy on the part of our
state that would lend to the upbuilding
and support of factories of all kinds In
our miast. Their employes \u uld
furnish consumers of our products and
add value to every acre of form land
in Georgia. We believe that packing
houses established iu our largest cities
would pay. Let them be established
and we will furnish the beef and pork.
Bv following the above suggestions
we believe that we oan escape from the
slough of despond and the clutches of
poverty, and ere long stand upon ths
high ground of contentment and pros
perity.
