NORWICH BULLETI THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 20, 1913 AGRICULTURAL INTERESTS opyright 1913—Morse International Agency. All Rights Reserved STABLE MANURE FOR THE GARD- EN. B¢ C. & MOOERS, ce Experiment Station. T s The best material for the garden and o weneral soil upbuilding is manure. mely product may be well of in _America, but 1o 'm small plots of ground, is its ppreciated. How many h proverb, “It is manure that 1> cake on the table?” A sent- went like that would certainly. change sore of our methods. <‘ompiete scientific studies have been made in Germany to find out the best meihods of saving and using stable manure. The conclusions reached are a{ variame not only with our common practice, but also with seen in print. We will do well, there- fore, to consider their most important recommendations. First—Only enough litter should be used in the gutters to take up the liquid matter. An excess of straw, and especiaflly of coarse litter such as cornstalks, should be avoided. Second—Preservatives, —such as kainit, land plaster, iron sulphate, etc are seidom, if ever, profitable and are not advised. Third —The manure pit should have as cool a location as possible and be covered to prevent loss by ourt] 0 reduce the loss of nitro- gen, the most valuable element, heap must be kept compacted and moist 50 as to exclude the air. The best resuits are obtmined where cattle can be turned in to tramp down the heap, but tramping should be done by 2 man along the sides aad at the cor- ners of the pit. Also the watering of the heap may be necessary. Fifth—The manure from different iinds of ltve stock should be spread meparately in even layers over the pit. In this way the light and easily de- eomposed horse manure can be protect- ed by a covering of heavy cow manure. Sixth—Manure allowed to accumu- iate under the animals (deep stall ma- Bure) suffers the least loss of nitrogen, | and pound for pound is more efiective than any other kind. It should not, however, be left to dry out, as is apt 1o Do the case when the cattle are per- manently removed, but should either be hauled out with litile delay or well protected by a mulch of earth, straw er the like otherwise heating and a marked loss of the most valuable part of the nitrogen will take place. Seventh.—When hauled out manure should not be put in plles to be scater. ed at another time, but should be spread at once, PRACTICALLY CLEAN MILK By C. B. LANE, Department of Agricuiture, Tha Teason milk sours is because it's There's a sample of milk in a - e laboratory that is ten years old and sweet. This is clean m It is not necessary. however.. to produce this kind of milk. Next to ciean milk there is ecertified milk, which is found in all eftfes. This is produced under direction if the county medieal milk commiasions, which have strict regula- tioms as to production. Cows must be washed, kept clean and healthy, stables Kept scroupulousty clean, milkers pro- mounced healthy by a physician, be elean and wear special suits. Milk must be dzawn and handled under san- ftary conditions and not contain over 10000 bacteria to the c. c. (fifteen drops.) Certified milk interests only few dairymen. Many are anxious to pro- duce milk pr#vtically ciean, better than fe ordinary product, and which re- ns betier prices than commonly re- eived. This is not dtfficult to' accomp- lish. Hundreds do it sucessfully and instead of receiving 4 cents per quart receive 5 and sometimes 6 cents. What are the requirements for producing this milk? It requires no expensive stables or expensive equipment. A few changes often piace “just milk” in the “practically clean milk class” The first requirements is healthy cows, for If cows producing milk are not healthy all efforts in care and hand- ling are fruitless. A reputable veteri- narian must examine the cows and give a clean il of health. Another requirement is the contsant use of currycomb and brush. Feed clean and wholesome food, taking care that dusty hay or food is not fed before or during miflking, dust being a carrier farmer must change tear out old partitions, ceilings, put in cement floors or cork brick, make ceiling and walls tight, give each cow a swing stanehion, 500 cubic feet of air space and four square feet of light. make ‘windows adjustable for ventilation and whitewash twice a vear. The small top milk pall is the greatest help in produeing practically clean milk, re- ducing bacterfa 95 per cent. Wiping cows' udders and flanks with damp cloths before milking reduce bacteria 6,000 1o the c. c_: milking cows dry re- duces baoteria in the next milking by 4.000: brushing cows before milking increases bacteria by 1,000. Careless milldng increases bacteria 1,000. Flies must be kept out of the milk, as it is possible for one to carry 1,000,000 germs, and utensils must be scalded and_the milk cooled. So {f a man desires to do can produce “practically clean at small financial outlay. S0 “he milk” OBTAINING AND DRESSING MAR- KET POULTRY. \ Bsr E J. LAMBERT, Poultry TInstructor, R. T.
