Stony Land.

There are great variety Of lands in
our country, among these, some are very
stony, while others have few or no stones
at al. Many persons are very much afraid
of stony lands, especially when the dark
side Of the subject is considered, and their
advantages overlooked. But when their
valuable properties are considered free
from prejudice. they may appear in more
favorable light.
Fra-Un stony lands there i. general.
ly good aud lasting wafer this is one Of
he greatest comforts OF life.
.Seeondiy-They are good grazing lands,
being no! only commonly we'll ~aterei,
but the grass suffers much less from
drought than on smooth lands.
1hirdiy-They are favorable to the
growth Of fruit trees. They will do well
on land that is too stony TO plough, the
stones beiag no hindrance to the growth
Of the roots.
There are also different kinds Of stony
land, some have large rocks which i, is
impossible TO move without blasting but
If this be done so TIA, they can be hauled
and put into fences, they can be made to
answer good purpose in tina, way. and
the laad used for ,iIlage. Ga other lands
large portion Of the stones are fiat and
OF different sizes; these are excellent
fence stones, and if properly laid up make
the cheapest and most durable fence lha,
is made in this country. While on other
lands the stones are small, and worth bul
little, except TO make roads and under.
drains.
Unless land is wanted for meadow, i, is
poor policy TO haul off more of the small
stones than is necessary for pIoughng
and land can be poughed when covered
with small stones, provided they are loose
by farming such land for many years
nave learned that stony land under the
same circumstances, will produce more
grain Of any kind, aud continue its fertili.
~ longer than land that is smooth. The
only drawback is in poughing, which, in
my opinion, is more than made up in the
crop.
Stones have tendency to keep the
land mos! IN dry weather, and if the land
IS OF tenacious nature, TO keep il from
running together in wet weather. Blu,
further, II would seem as If there was
something in stones that nourshed the
crop. One would think that tho more
grain was produced on given piece OIL
ground, the more it would be exhausted
Of It's fertility; bu; this does not appear to
be the case on stony land. Dollar Neus

The importance of saving the wash from

'ural Society, offered a premium for The
best method Of making compost manure.
The successful applicant obtained his meth,

potato patch he could find and ia one
large field cultivated by many different
families, he found one patch Of very uyu.
RANT growth. and more promising than
any other. He inquired of the owner
whether he did not keep more stock than
COW and pig, but found to his surprise that
he kept neither COW nor pig. lie had
PIT dug, where he threw all the wash from
the house, mixing it with straw, turf, scra.
pings from the road. and whatever he could
get that would work into manure. This
pit, frequently emptied and re.filed, con.
s!ltuied little manure factory tina, produ
ced the bes, potatoes in Ireland. Farmers,
is not here an opportunity for making much
manure, with materials tina, have for a
long time been thrown away
4. OF all sources Of m lnure making,
hogs are The most Prti able. Those who
have barn-celefs for their hogs 10 work in,
can turn their labor TO the best account,
bot those who have not, NAV without ex.
pense, have a small yard attached to the !
hog pen, and every few days throw in
muck, loan, turf, leaves, weeds, or any.
thing of the kind tina, may DO a, hand.
The hog.ysrd, TO be profitable, should be |
frequently attended to; when considerably /
FL ed, it should be emptied and supplied
with new materials. Hogs, if rightly man.
a ged, would never be ccnsured for lazlness.
They have unjas,ly been accused Of this
simply because, like mankind, they will
10, work, unless they can work in their
'rn r0y. To be sure, when they have
accumulated "a good deal, they like to
retire from business" and become gen.
lemen Of leisure )" but while in The "yi-
yor Of life," they will do a good deal TO-
wards ga living" if provided with the
means. As they are fond of new things"
hey should frequently be supplied with
rev materials TO work upon and if this
$ faithfully done, farmers may rest assur.
d, their hogs will dig more money for
hem than many of the California gold.

Charms ocRuralLifc.

Besides The benefit of mental discipline
derived from the study Of nature, for which
agriculture opens as wide field as any
other pursuit, the charms Of rural life are
unalloyed by the reflection Of lgolten
gains, and uncontaminated by immoral IN
fiuences. The farmer has no occasion 10
review with remorse, a life Of injustice To
his fellow men, or mourn the loss Of for.
tunes accumulated almost necessarily DIS

the Illuminating consciousness that they

client for which they have received. But
