DEAD ANIMALs.-Ah animals which die
on farm should be covered with mould
or earth Of any kind, Each dead horse or
any animal thus treated, would throw out
gas enough to impregnate five loads of earth
with its fertizing properties. To promote
the speedy decomposition Of animal bodies
a few bushels of lime should be thrown on
them previous to being covered with earth,
or mould. After the decomposition of the
flesh, the bones should be broken up and
placed in the soil,where they prove an eff
cient and lasting manure.
