All Morn and more tiie application of ferti liners tn tho gnrdeu becmes the important factor in the spring's garden plans. Carelessly used ma nures often will do little good, und In some cases might even do harm. There are, lu general, three classes of fertilizer, animal manure, vege table, and mineral fertilisers, ihe last being confined tn rommei-ei.il soil stimulants and plant food. The refuse from horses, cows, sheep, pigs, and poultry. . and the imported guano, together with bones, form the first class. The averane gardener In ihht list, must depend chiefly on pulverized sheep ma n u re or sli red d ed eti w ma n ure j sold commercially together with t hone meal. The scarcity of farm manure such as was commonly used twenty years ago'mukes It necessary to procure the commer cially prepared article. In general, the animal manures are. soil build ers in that they provide humus along with the fertilizing ele ments. They should always he well rotted, ax horse manure heats when fresh and cow manure is much easier handled when well rotted. Poultry manure Is often nvnil uble, hut is , a valuable fertilizer only when properly used.. It must be well mixed with the soil or gyp sum or land plaster before being applied to the soil, as It is to strong n nd hot fresh from t he poultry run. The commercial sheep and cow manures are excellent to be .used as a top dressing or to he dug into the soil.' The others need to be thoroughly incorporated. They are chiefly nitrogenous fertllhiers. The bone products are a, different type, being rich In phosphates and lime and being slow In their op eration, lasting two seasons. Vegetable manures are t those composed of rotted leaves, grass nnd garden refuse, as well as growing crops turned under green manures. Their use Is to add humus nnd mellow the' texture of the soil. - v . . The nitrates, sulphntes, lime nnd IIHJHMlUlfM 111 O (Or IIUIllM tll 1 1 141 nures.
