The most economical and sue >ssful way of using the honx anuro* is to compost them, u in. ich commercial material as wil ; once supply the foment hich are deficient iu the honx anures and facilitate eompleti '1'inentation without loss of val ible ingredients. Stable manure is a eompleti rtilizer in the sense th it i. con iins every element necessary a lant food. It is defect ive, how rer, in that it doe- not eontnii lose in the proper proportions We therefore add to it comnier al material to make the com ist a balanced ration for plant? Stable manure should remaii i the stall from .January to dan ary. Make a good bed of leave r cut straw to begin with and af ?rwards add only enough litte > keep the stall drv and th in am has ax elastic, com fort aid lm! throughout the year.
