How to Make a Barn Yard.

The best way in my opinion to form a
barn-yard for the preservation Of manure,
without its becoming muddy, where the
ground is higher than some fits surroun-
ming parts, is to plough and ., sclape
from the centre to the out ;dc, making a
gradual descent from the outside to the
centre Let the fail be one half foot in
ten, and falling a little more as you near
the centre. Dig drain from the centre
to some suitable place without the yard,
where you can construct vat to put in
leaves, sods, muck, &C., which will absorb
and retain the liquid from the yard. The
bottom and sides may be formed of plank
or may be more substantially built of stone
and mortar. The top Of the vat should be
made so as to guard against rains and sur
face water as much as possible. The
drain should fall considerably, and should
be made of plank eight inches high and
one foot wide inside. The head of the
drain should be covered over with good
strong iron CRATE. The yard ought to be
well paved with cobble stone, and with a
little pains you can always have a dry
yard. The water from the barn and sheds
should never be allowed to run into the
yard, but should be carried by good cave
troughs to IA large cistern for the purpos e
of watering stock.-Lor R,vai Nc,o Yorker.

Gen. Havelock upon. Family Discipline

The following from one who enioyed
much personal communion with the de-
ceased General, will be regarded as an H.
lnstration of the mems character not with
out significance. During his stay in Eng
land, the narrator of this anecdote went
one evening to the house of the colonel in
compliance with an invitation. In the
course Of conversation Mrs. Havelocll tur-
ned suddenly to her husband and said
"By the way, my dear, where is Harry"
referring to her son whom she had not
seen during the whole afternoon. The CO.
lionel started to his feet. "Well, poor fell
low, he is standing on London bridge, and
in this cold, too | told him to wait for
me there at y o'clock to-day and in. the
pressure of business at -, | quite for
got the appointment" The father and
son were to have met at T. at noon, and il
was now after seven o'clock in the even
ing. Yet the father seemed to have no
doubt that Harry would not move from
his post till he appeared. The colonel at
once rose, ordered cab to be called. and.
as he went forth to deliver his son from
his weary watch on London bridge,h tur-
ne to his visitor, saying: "You see. sir.
that's the discipline of a soldiers familv.'
In the course Of an hour the colonel retu-
ned with poor Harry, who although he
seemed somewhat affected with the cold
watch, and glad to see the fire in the
comfortable parlor at home, seemed to
have passed through the little afternoons
experience with the greatest good humor.
and the feeling that all was right.-Edb,
