9 Agricultural Stable Manure, the Unfailing Soil Builder. Progressive Farmer. The majority of our Southern farm writers wnen aavismg cuucerning the growing of any or >p will begin something after this fashion: "Apply about 5'*0 pounds per acre of fertilizer con eisting of so aud so." Not once in a hundred times is the advice given to make and apply a certain number ot loads of stable manure per acre, and by the use of this make available laree quantities of mineral plant food aire dy in the soil put there for the use (not abuse) o? man. "BED KOCK OF LASTING SUCCESS." A reader from a distant State' after much perusal of Southern farm journals wrote th" writer of this ashino if there was no stable manure made in the South, and if not, why not? 1 had the encouraciug news to : tell hira that while little bad been used heretofore the necessity for its use was becoming more apparent to our people every year and we were iookiiiz iorward to the good time coming! when this most important of all. I cur farm crops, wouid be given ; the attention it must be given it we are to reclaim our depleted rods and not become bankrupt iu doing so. Professor Massev and ? lew other-5 have been preaching the doctrine of sane farming by, tlie use of stable manure and hu-1 in us supplemented?where absoJutelv necessary?with annlio ?i * tions of phosphorus aud potash, and I predict that in the yearto come our people will be I nought to realize a-5 they do rot seem to do at this time, *h ?: ih'* use cf stable manure is the bed rook ou which la-ting success in Southern agriculture ibased. The writer believes in the steady, old-fa-hioned sort ol prosperity, not at all in the spec-' illative kind. We like to see a eiow, st^a ly growth in any sort: of business, as history and our, own common-sense leads us to know that a business builded in this way will withstand the; shocks ol hard times and money , I a ic=, yoing steadily onvardj pr vj ling a hvinc for the creat in - of our peop'e.

What we w .ut, in was at its height, and while the "" i > j crop had bee a cultivated well to t -* , conserve moisture, ye" firing of i tue plant- was to be seen on ev-rv plat stveoue. This plat gave evidence of such strength and vigor that we both remarked upc.i; it at once. And turning *o the record, we found that the nitrogen furnished this plst hid been applied in the form of sta1 le in inure, while on the others rniu- r d fertilizers ha 1 beeD used.
