The Money-Making Spreader I One good way to maintain soil g; fertility is to spread manure from S the barns regularly. Many farm- J ers plan to do this but the pres- g sure of other work sometimes W directs their attention away from S manure hauling. £ Tests at experiment station j ft show that manure increases the ft yield of crops, hastens crop ma- ft turity, aids in establishing a stand ft of legumes, and improves the phy- 2 sical condition of the soil, max- W i ing it easier and cheaper to work. ■ The fact has recently been es- A tablished that it is better to X spread manure thin and distri- W i bute it over as large an area as ft poss: le. This is the practical Z use of the proven theory that the J larger the space over which a ■ quantity of manure is applied, the ft I gr ater will be the total benefit. Z | Small quantities of manure can be J । made to go a long way by follow- ■ ing this rule and there is no add- A ed expense when a manure spread- Z I er which will .-catter thin is used, w 1 Conditions Have ( hanged a The feeling s grown more A i prevalent in recent years that in- A I efficient methods and practices in * : farming are as wasteful and tin- z profitable as undesirable livestock J lor crops. A worn, out-of-date J : machine or piece of equipment is 3 just as much a cull as a boarder A ! cow. The poor cow can be re- Z ! placed with a higher producer Z j and the worn-out. inefficient ma- T j chine can be replaced by equip- V i ment which does the work quick- V j er. cheaper and better. ■
