REPLIES TO ">"*■ INQUIRIES In r ormation Furnished by the Agricultural Department. If ARY QUESTIONS ARE ANSWERED ValU-! of Leave* »» -Manure. Question.— Iu puttiner leaves in a stable for bedding, do tlwy add any¬ thing to the inannrial value of the muss, or are they simply used as an ab¬ sorbent for the liquid and solid animal manures ? Answer.—L eaves alone possess con¬ siderable manurial value, as is shown in the improvement of the crops on land which has had a heavy coating of leaves plowed under, and as a bedding for stable purposes they are not ex¬ celled. They not only add their own elements of fertility to the manure, but hold its valuable constituents, prevent¬ ing their escape, and enabling the farmer to save them to apply to his crops. Nothing pays better than to use the teams on wet days, when other farm work is interrupted, to haul up a plen¬ tiful supply of leaves. Ou farms where this is the rule throughout the year, we hear little complaint of poor crops and high priced fertilizers. Successful farm¬ ing depends more on good management and care in such small items as this, than on planting large areas. A small farm made rich with all the home ma nures, which cau be saved, supple- > mcuietd with commercial fertilizers and j leguminous crops, will not only be more l satisfactory, but will bring iu more ac- I tuai cash than a large one cultivated j on the plan of taking off more from j tho land than we return to it. After ! a while the annual decrease in fertility will become painfully apparent and then the farmer has either to slowly aml painfully retrace his steps and re¬ turn to his laud the elements of which he lias robbed it, or the money lender comes in to gradually absorb land, house, home—everything.—State Ag ricultural Deparemeut. OA 8 TOIIIA. 9V*fs«- k«a t'TOlO •lt.Ji.wat* % nn** a Leaving Manure In Stable. Question. —I am situated so that it witl be very inconvenient for me to either haul out the manure from my •tables or compost it. Will it injure my t •took to allow it to remain in the stables 1 for a mouth or two, provided I am very careful to keep plenty of dry bedding? If this plan is practicable I will avoid one handling, and of course that much trouble und expense. Answer. —While our experience has been that it is much better to haul the mannre directly to the field or to com¬ post it, not allowing it to accumulate in the stables, the plan you suggest has tome advantage, and if you are careful to keep a bountiful supply of good bed¬ ding your animals will not be materially injured. By your plan, as you suggest, you ! Will save one handling, You will also j •ave all the liquid manure. You will | make muoli more manure, because you will be compelled to use a much larger •mount of bedding. You will also pre¬ serve the manure in good condition and When you are ready to haul it out, whioh ought to be done long enough before planting time to get the manure thoroughly incorporated into the soil, you will find that its chemical proper¬ ties have been well conserved and that Jts mechanical condition is such that the spring rains will soon wash its strength into the soil. A good plan be¬ fore beginning to haul is to take a sharp spade, or other suitable implement, and out the manure into blooks of conven¬ ient size to handle. This will be found to greatly expedite the moving and hauling of the heavy mass.—State Ag¬ ricultural Department. licet Sugar.

TV Granted these essentials we should be able to produce our own supply of sugar, but, as with every other new enterprise, it is a mistake to rush in and undertake to carry it through before we are thor¬ oughly prepared for the work. The signs of the times point to this as a new American industry, and as the Louisiana Planter pertinently says, we could reach au immense development of the sugar industry before we should be compelled by the magnitude of our home produc¬ tion to accept the price of the world at large. At any rate the American people seem determined to try the experiment of the beet sugar iudustry. The closeness of the mar gi ns j„ manufacturing in almost ever y district leads to the concentration of much attention iu this oue industry, which seems to promise a profit to Chose w )j 0 eU g a g 0 i u it, or at least to promise a profit after the first losses duo to bad management shall have been made, industry is one suited to our soils ail q climate, is legitimate iu every re spect, and we trust that it will be so en¬ couraged that iu time we will be able ro fully supply our home market.—State Agricultural Department, - OASTOTtXA.
