gen in available forms may safely and wisely be applied in spring 

 seeding, but for late summer or autumn seeding, the application of 

 such materials in any considerable amounts would be a mistake. 



It should be understood that in presenting specific advice as to 

 applications of fertilizers under different conditions, no attempt is 

 made to give an exhaustive discussion of the subject. The materials 

 advised have been used with excellent results on the college farm as 

 well as by numerous private farmers. 



As has been stated, manure is relatively rich in 

 Fertilizers in nitrogen, and the application of manure alone in lib- 

 Connection eral quantities will be favorable to the production of 

 with Manure, hay, made up largely of such grasses as timothy and 

 red top. If it is desirable to increase the proportion 

 of clover, either of the following fertilizer applications may be recom- 

 mended : — 



(a.) Per acre, in addition to the manure, muriate of potash or 

 high grade sulfate of potash 150 to 175 pounds, — the former to be 

 selected for the lighter soils, and in cases where it is desirable that 

 the proportion of timothy be relatively large. 



(<^.) Per acre, muriate or high grade sulfate of potas.?i 1^0 to ly^ 

 pounds, and basic slag meal 600 to 800 pounds.
