THE FARM AND HOUSEHOLD.


Manufes.
1t seems probable that we are but yet in
the infancy of our knO Wedge about manures.
As a general thing no one goes wrong in the
use OF stable manure. For almost everything
it seems suited. With an abundance of this
one needs nothing else. But it is not always
abundant. Too often it is not to be had at
any reasonable price, and hence one has to
lind a substitute. or 60 on cultivating poor
ground, only to find himself poorer and poor
er in the end. .r
Every once in while we see astounding
statements as to the success or want of sue
cess with various applications. One to-day
tells us of some application which was of no
more use than SO much brick-dnst; auother
writes that an application of brick-dust in
creased the crop enormously; and we do
general practice of applying brick-dust to his
land.
We are led to notice this matter through
note in the Country Gentleman from cor
respondent who, after digging hole in
piece ofsOd to bury a large rock, shattered
the poor earth all around as far as it could
be thrown, and the result was an amazing
growth OF grass, equal 10 any growth from or
binary manure. yet every one knows the evils
which often attend the bringing of poor soil
to the surface. 1t is, indeed, one of the OBJ
jections made to deep plowing that it brings
up the poor surface-soil, and which is several
years before it can be brought into good culti-
vable condition. Yet we know that often
top-dressng of earth has wonderful ierril-
izlng power. We know of an orchard which is
top-dressed annually with nothing but waste
earth got together from wherever it could be
obtained, yet these trees make annual growth
of from three to five inches and are the ad-
mlration OF all who see them. When asked
what he thinks best for top-dressing orchards
this friend always seems hard to understand
when he replies anything whatever; it makes
no difference what.
1t is likely, however, that it does make
some difference sometimes. 1t has been con-
tended by some agricultural chemists in En-
gland that it is no use to apply nitrogen to
the soil, as the soil is capable of absorbing all
of this necessary fertilizing ingredient from
the atmosphere that it needs. But this
probably will only hold good IN clayey soils.
1t has been found that dry clay is a powerful
absorbent of ammonia, and it is extensively
used now as deadorIzer; and it is perhaps
in clayey soils that it has been noticed in this
way. 1t may be that the good effects of
mere earth as top-dressing may have fol-
lowed from the same cause. The earth con-
tanned clay, and tbe clay absorbed ammonia,
and hence the good results, especially on
grassland, which always seems to be so
much benefited by nitrogenous manures.
1t may be worth many ones while, who
has various kinds OF earth on his land, to try
experiments with some of them as fertilizers.
We suspect that often it would be found that
many dollar sent to distance for some fer
tiizer might be saved by looking at home

The contents of cesspool may be rendered
comparatively inodorous by FREQUENT additions

Probably the easiest way of using the contents
for manure is to throw fine earth into the un-

this out and cover it with quantity Of dry
soil gathered in readiness for it. The easiest

Remoying Greasc Spots.

In taking out grease from clothing with
benzole or turpentine, people generally make
the mistake of wettiug the clcth with the tur-
pentine and then rubbing it with a sponge or
piece of cloth. In this way the fat is dissolved,
but is spread over greater space and is moi
removed. The benzole or turpentine evap-
crates and the fat covers greater surface
than before. The only way to remove grease
spot is to place soft blotting paper beneath on
top of the spot, which is to be irst thoroughly
saturated with the benzole and then well
pressed. The fat is then dissolved and alb
sorbed by the payer and entirely removed
from the clothing.

TO Rauish Rats,

A correspondent of the Cou try Gentleman
says the way to Danish rats is, plant asphodel
some in their holes. Rats have such an aver
sion for this plant that they will quit the prem

cellars, scatter sulphate of iron (copperas) in
their runs. The copperas should not be dis

Provide number Of halt pint white vials
corresponding with the number of cows il the

and the cows to correspond. Fill each vial
with the first milk of the COW bearing the same
number. Note down the quantity of milk
each cow gives. After the milk has stood in
the vials about twelve hours, examine them
and mark down by sixteenths of inches the
amount Of cream that each produces. Adopt
the same plan at the next milking, about tue
middle of the time of milking, and again a
third time at the latter end of milking. After
this, compare notes, and the cream producing
