A practical farmer argues that manure is essential to profits and that heavy manuring should increase with late sowing. Sir J J O'Donnell of Grandview Boort West cites using 60 lb of superphosphate early and up to 100 lb later, noting drought years produced high yields. The piece targets wheat growers, urging courage to adjust manure to seed timing and moisture conditions.
