EARTH.CLOSETS.


While farmers enjoy especial advanta-
ges for the preservation of their own health
and that OF their families, it is neverthe-
less true that in one'very important essen
tial they are careless and inattentive We
allude to the necessary appendage to a
household, the closet; with which is gen
orally connected a cesspool. This cesspool
receives for number of years, the aggre-
gate waste of family, which is absorbed
by the ground and soon saturates all the
soil contiguous to it. The well often
receives the drainage which finds its way
troughh the soil, and the water becoming
contaminated, conveys, as it is consumed
by the family. the deadlest poison. This
peculiar poisonous matter, in quantities so
small as to be undetected by taste or smell,
produces dysentery, cholera, and typhoid
fevers Hear exists an alarming danger to
which great proportion of unsuspectng
country residents are subjected. The
earth closet system at once does away with
this unpleasant and serious evil. Dry earth
is an absorbent and disinfectant, and it
needs only to become generally known,
and that there be satisfactory means of
applying it, to hayeit introduced into use
in every country household. The Goux
Earth Closet is one of the simplest and
most convenient of several modes of using
dry earth. The tub or vessel used is not
contaminated, being lined with Il thick lay
