Benefit In Ch(micl Fertilizer r Greatly Exaggerated. The. practice of using dried mn'k and peat iu mixing chemical fertilizers puis up a problem which fanners ought to understand. Thousands of tons of such muck are used sold as "muck tankage." We learn of one case where a ninn started growing celery In a swamp and Is said to have nearly fail ed at it Then he conceived the Idea of drying and pulverizing the soil of that swamp and selling It to fertilizer dealers. This has brought him a for tune. Some samples of this dried peat are said to contain nearly 3 per cent of nitrogen; others carry less. This ni trogen is iu an Inert form and Is of little value as a plant food. Experi ments In Illinois showed that such ni trogen was worth about one-half cent a pound as compared with that In dried blood costing 15 cents. Yet the fer tilizer manufacturer who sells this muck mixed' with other chemicals un dertakes to charge 18 cents a pound for it when yon buy It. For example, take a brand of fertilizer which Is guaranteed to contain In each ton 10 pounds of nitrogen. 100 pounds avail able phosphoric acid and 100 pounds of potash. It would be possible to supply the potash and phosphoric acid In 200 pounds of muriate and 1.200 pounds of acid phosphate. Then by using 100 pounds of cottonseed meal and 500 pounds of dried muck they could pro vide more ultrogeu than they guaran teed. The object of using the cotton seed meal Is to color the muck and thus prevent, If possible, the chemist from detecting it. But see what a nice game this Is! The muck furnishes ten or twelve pounds of nitrogen, which gives the fertilizer a valuation of from $1.G0 to $2, but which costs perhaps 20 cents. A farmer might use such a fertilizer on his wheat this fall. The potash and phosphoric add may help, but it Is doubtful if his grandchildren will see any benefit from the nitrogen In the muck. The excuse given for using the muck Is that It makes a good filler and dries out the other chemicals. No Berious ob jection can be made to Its use as a filler, but the nitrogen It contains should not be valued In the fertilizer, for It Is not worth the price. It Is near ly Impossible to detect the muck when cottonseed meal Is used with It. The best way to avoid It Is to refuse to buy low grade fertilizers or those very low In nitrogen. It Is Impossible to use large quantities of muck In fertilizers containing 4 per cent or more of nitro gen, because materials containing more nitrogen must be used in order to reach a high per cent. You are most likely to find the muck in the mixtures with about 1 per cent of nitrogen. It does not pay to buy them. Buy the higher grade mixtures and use an equal value in dollars per acre and you will be bet ter off. We believe that farmers are paying millions of hard earned dollars uselessly for this peat nitrogen, many of them already having swamps on their ownfarms. The chemists must find some way to detect this pent nitro gen, aud then we shall work for a law compelling the manufacturer to state that he uses It and that It Is not valued the same as other forms. New English Potato. The Magnum Bonum potatoes shown herewith were exhibited at a recent fair at the American Institute In New York. Dr. W. II. Jordan, director of the New iliONUM llONDM POTATO. York experiment station, says: "At the station in our variety tests of potatoes In 1S9j Magnum Bonum, the seed of which was Imported from England, wus tested. The variety is still grown by the firm from whom we purchased our seed, nnd in its 1907 catalogue 1 find the following: 'Magnum Bonum, Introduced by us In 1870, proved to be the premier of all disease resisting va rieties. There Is scarcely a parish In the United Kingdom where Magnum Bonum Is not known as an enormous cropper of good quality, almost free from disease.' Tho yield at the New York station of the Magnum Bonum was from 150 to 100 bushels per acre, while with some other varieties we se cured a yield of between 300 and 400 bushels. No English varieties yielded well in comparison with our best Amer ican varieties." Home Garden Hints. Strawberry plants are now making a substantial growth showing. Keep out the weeds, hoe frequently, and In early fall plants will be thrifty to set In a new bed. It is none too early to manure a piece heavily for rhubarb. Then cultivate It once a week or so to Incorporate the manure thoroughly through the soil. Iihubarb Is a voracious feeder and re quires a large quantity of manure If bust results are to be obtained. One plant highly fertilized will yield a sur prising quantity of stalks. Currant cuttings of the new wood are easily made and If done In early fall ought to be well roofed so as to be transplanted In spring. In some towns there Is never an oversupply of currants, while If around 10 cents per quart can be realized for them tbey pay well. The large currants are most profitable, such as the cherry.
