these radical defects. Tho drst poin, can
be gained by spreading coa, Of clay over
the surface and dragging it in. This will
improve iis texture. and will also impart
fertility. Adhesiyensss and strength having
been gained. manure from the barn.yard
may be applied as fast as il can be procured.
Another method is 10 dress such lands with
rough compOs,.. Prepare the leaps Mt
leisure, in the barn.yari. The ingredients
may be such as these ten loads oil stable
dung mixed with Eve loads OF elayey soil,
twenty bushels OF ashes, and the same

been we'll incorporated, le. the mass lilo Tor
a month or two; then !, will be ready for
use. Such q compost, i, is easy to see, will
BE- more enduring. and better in all respects
than the same bulk Of barn.yard manure.
