Making Manure.

AN immense amount of fertilizlng
material might be secured on a farm,
by simply making use of the well
known absorbent property of clay, by
which we mean any earth which is not
mere sand. Hauled into the yard, and
mixed with other manure, it is worth
at least One-thisd as much as the same
bulk of the pure article.
Recently we came across the follow
ing paragraph in an exchange from the
pen Of John Johnson, of New York.
who is amongst the most success sful
farmers of the Union, and who well
shows the value of the practice we rec
ommend. He says:
| am drawing swamp muck two and
one half miles; put good deal in my
yards before l put in my sheep and cat
tie, and spread straw over it. / have IA
basin in the lower part of one yard,
that put thirty loads in; the remain
der am putting in where the liquids
run out OF one yard. expect to get in
all $50 loads,and large ones / get as
large loads as wish to draw for SO
cents, dug out ready to load. / mix my
sheep and cattle dung with the muck
When l sell my sheep In Mar. or the lst
OF Apr. / expect to have 450 loads of the
very best of manure to put on my land
next August or September. / shall
keep drawing muck as loIG.as the roads
are good. When send sGo teams j
generally get eight loads 3 day.
