COMPOSING MANUREs.
HID. Smith, Plantsvillc, Conn. hive
privicS used hv 100 men; stables OF ten
horses. anv nlantity of muck: MI within
two acres OF ground; want to hit upon
the best method Of making manure from
these materials. If you ran, tell me some
author can get, some practical mans de-
sCriptiOn 0! the process.
Jos. \. WhitnCy--All he wants lS TO
put his elements together. If the prlvies
nrc foul, and especially il the liquids are
not lost, he should buy Il carboy OF sui
phuric acid, and after thinning with
water, use ii till the Odor is well under,
Mix any rank manure with dry road
sCrapingS, or fine earth from any source.
Then compost with peat After getting
all your manure in piles, work them over
and let 1t rot down to fine dark earth.
II is then tho best Of all applications for
any and all crops. For the future adopt
the earth-closct system for men, and in
the stables see that the urine is saved, and
compost us you go along with dry peat or
muck. II you use dry earth and dry
muck betimcS, and in abundance, you
will have no vile smells, no cause OF ty-
phoid fever, and 10 use Tor Bommers
method.
