To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It should, therefore, not be applied to these crops directly. It may be applied to the crop preceding, or decomposed manure may be used. As a rule, manure should be applied directly to the crop in the rotation having the longest growing season, or the greatest money value. For example, in a rotation of corn, oats, wheat and mixed grasses, corn not only has the longest growing season, but also the greatest food and cash value. It is, therefore, considered good practice to apply the manure direct...ly to the corn. Since the benefits of manure are distributed over a number of years, the crops which follow will benefit by its residual effect. To What Soils Should Manure be Applied? — Character of soil may also determine where the manure should be applied. If mechanical con- dition is a prime consideration, fresh manure may be applied to heavy, clay soils and well-rotted manure to light, sandy soils. On the other hand, the sandy soils in a favorable season are more likely to utilize coarse manure to advantage than heavy soils.
