The Compost Heap.


Every one who owns or occupies farm, or
even garden spot, should have a compost
heap, and know how to manage the same "a
provide an abundance of fertiliziug material
to feed his growing plants. There is not a
place, consisting Of dwelling with few rods
Of ground attached, but that will furnish ma.
terials for compost heap, and usually
enough to fertilize garden well, if the whole
be utilized and properly managed. In max
ing up complete heap, there is often a mis-
take made in adding lime or ashes or both,
with animal matter and failing to add suff.
Gent vegetable or earth matter. Lime and
alkaline matter, in connection with animal
refuse or matter, tends TO drive off the most
active and valuable portion of the same for
the fertilization Of plants, and this portion is
lost to all intents and purposes Of the proprie-
tor.
Sometimes the case happens with the COM
post heap that it heats up, becomes dry,
mouldy, burns to a black mass and becomes
carbonized. This as eifectually wastes or
destroys its value as the former. Means

Preservation OF Eggs.

The Boston Journal Of ClemistrU says
The subject Of the preservation Of eggs
has recently attracted a great deal Of attcn.
ton, and many methods Of ciiccting It have
been published, though none are altogether
perfect for the simple reason that the true
cause Of the spelling Of the eggs is either
unknown by those who have attempted to
furnish us with directions or has been lost
sight Of by them There are two efficient
causes for the stoiling Of eggs, and unless
one or both Of these are avoided. We cannot
hope for success The first is exposure TO a
high temperature, and the other is access Of
air. II may be safely affirmed that at tenn
peratures below 80 Fab, nearly all change
ceases in organic bodies. while very few OIL
ganic substances will boar continual exposure
to a temperature above 9O' Tho freezing
point is rather too low for the preservation Of
eggs in good condition, as freezing affects the
flavor uniavoraby but If we desire to pre-
serve eggs in the best manner we must keep
them cool-say at a temperature below so
if possible temperature which is frequent
ly maintained in good cellars But 1t will
be Of no use to place the eggs in a cool cell
lar If they have been previously exposed for
hours to O temperature OF over 90. The
collection of the eggs must. therefore. in tine
FIRST place, engage our attention Those who
raise poultry, and especially those vino keep
fowls for the sake Of their eggs commit a
great error when they fail to remove from
their yards those birds that ave inclined 20
set, aud which consequently take every op-
portunity Of warming the eggs in the nests.
If any one will attempt to preserve eggs that
have been subjected to the Matching process
for one or two days he will discover the force

who owns an extensive poultry raising ostab-
llshment, and who, every winter, preserves
thousands Of eggs without ever losing one,
has recently published an account Of his
method Of proceeding, and has given tho
following rules for securing favorable re-
suits:
]. The nest must be placed ia cool posi-
ton.
,. The fowls that show a tendency to set
must be removed at once, aud placed in
separate inclosurcs until this propensity has
left them
8. If many hens be confined in the same
their eggs, the eggs ought to be removed from
the nests several times day.
1. The eggs ought to be assorted according
to age, and preserved in boxes with covers al
ways partially open. These boxes must be
kept in cool, airy, and perfectly dry place.
.. At the commencement Of winter, the
store Of eggs is placed in some room that is
not heated by fire. but that is nt the same

Best Feed for fattenlng Cattle.

A farmer in fattening cattle, should bear
in mind that it does not pay to feed grain to
animals, that do not take on flesh rapidly, and
that his object should be to get the most out
of bis fodder possible il his stock is poor,
and will not take on flesh rapidly, it would
be far more profitable to sell them of, and
buy better animals. The following plan is
recommended in fattening cattle, by an old
stock-breeder: Commence with as much food
as they can bear at first, and then increase.
The great fault with farmers is that they do
not feed heavy enough.
In feeding twelve quarts Of meal, the last
four quarts are worth twice as much as the
first four for fattening purposes. Some farm
ers complain that they do not get pay for what
grain they feed out but it is only those who
feed light, that thus complain; whether the
animal is TO be fed long or short time, it
should have heavy feeding. Corn meal is
considered the most profitable those who are
the most successful, and make the business of
fattening cattle the most profitable, are those
who feed meal largely. If farmer has po-
tatoes, or other roots, it is well enough to feed
those in part but farmer will do better to
exchange some of his roots for corn than to
feed roots altogether. Ii is important to feed
regularly; but not too often, as the stock will
eat and lie down and ruininste.
