LIQUID MANURE

+. r. Elliot says, in the american Ru-
raj Home: 1t is generally believed that
no system of enriching land for small
gardens, with view to perfection Of
crops, is SO truly economical and so easi-
ly available as that of liquid manure
We occasionally hear of gardener or an
amateur fruit-grower who has practiced
enriching the crop by use of liquid ma
nure; but it ls not a common practice so
to enrich our gardens and lawns, how
ever ofttimes the advocacy of the prac-
tice has been written. The writer prac-
ticed the sprinkling of lawn in a dry
season vita weak liquid nanure-water,
and in the greatest of heat and drought
has kept it fresh and green. In the
management OF pot plants no course of
supplying focd equals that ola judicious
use of liquid manure. There are in al
most every family waste liquids, which
usually go into a sewer or drains, or DOS
sibly upon the road, where they are of
no avail. But if saved by being conduct
ed to a tank, along with wash waters of
the house, would enrich an entire gar
den for vegetables and fruits, flower bor-
ders etc. and the whole, if the waste
be applied regularly and at night, after
sunset, in moderate quantities, would
prevent the driest of midsummer from
checking vegetation. If an unpleasant
odor comes from the tank, little plas-
ter (gypsum) sprinkled in and around
the tank would keep it sweet and clean,
Again, the use of liquid manure need
never delay plan ing because of manure
not being on hand; but planting could
proceed, and the application of manure
be made at leisure.

SALT FOR CABBAeE.-A New Jersey
gardner considers salt necessary to the
development of cabbage, especially in
places far from the coast. He finds them
more crisp, of better favor and to keep
better when salt is used than without,
He uses it as follows: A few days after
setting out the plants, and when they
are damp, either after a rain, or when
the dew is on, take small dish Of fine
salt, and walking among the rows,
sprinkle p ;nch of salt on the centre of
each plant. When the leaves begin to
grow, l repeat the sailing, and when the
centre Of the leaves begin to form the
head l apply salt again, scattering it
over the leaves. After this, look them
over occasionally, and if 1 find plants
that do not head well, or appear diseased,
l sprinkle the salt over freely. This will
save all such plants. A quart of salt is
sufficient for five hundred plants in a
season, although more can he used with
safety
