SEASONED Woop MOST PRoFITABLE

SEASONED WooD MOST PROFITABLE.
Economy may be practiced in a thou
sand ways, and one way is in our fuel.
Wood that has been summed few days
after cutting and splitting it, and then
housed four months or more, is worth for
the family purposes Of warming, cooking
and washing, almost twice as much as
when green. But few farmers realize the
value Of dry wood, especially during the
winter season, and hence but little wood
is stored during the summer. Be sure to
furnish plenty ofoven-wood. This should be
piled in part of the wood-house by itself
1t will prmote kindly feeling in the
family-will save much time otherwise lost
in kindling fires with green wood. Then
let us prepare good supply ofdry wood
for winter full six months before wanted
for se.- Cor. Country Gentleman.
