A LIQUID Manure CiStern.

"W. E. Jerseyville, ILL.,, sends
plan to the American AgricuItea'ist
for constructing liquid manure els
tern in the barn yard for receiving
the drainage from the stables and
the yards. 1t is not intended for the
rain water from the roofs, although
il this were permitted to flow into 1t,
aud the manure pumped out and
spread upon grass land occasionally.
it would be advisable. The cistern
is nine feet square and lined with
brick. A brick wall, inclosing space
three feet square, is built i'll the centre,
and several openings are made in this
wall, which is for the purpose of sup
porting the covering. The covering
is of fat stone, three feet square, and
there are nine of these laid. The els
tern may be made as deep as may
be desirable. 1t has eight square feet
of surface, and for each foot in depth
will contain twenty barrels. If seven
and half feet deep it will hold $50
barrels, which will give very good
manuring to one acre Of ground at
the rate of nearly one barrel of the
liquid fertilizer to the square rod. A
square hole may be cut in the centre
stone to receive a pump.

The Bermuda Onion Seed.

Sow in drills ten inches apart as
thinly as practicable. Let the seed
plants be thoroughly prepared and
well fertilized. If thesun is very hot
at the time the plants are springlng,
shade and water them. When the
plant grows to the size of a goose
quill or larger, it is ready to be trans
planted. If sown by the Goth OF o.
tober, the plants can be taken up and
set in beds, say, by the Goth OF De-
cember.
The beds are four feet wide, with
narrow footpaths between, and the
ground prepared i'll the best style.
Set the plants III drills ten to twelve,
or fourteen inches apart, and at least
eight inches distant one from the other
in the drill. Keep out the weeds and
grass. Break only the surface Of the
ground in cultivating. Deep culture
will cut or break the fine onion roots.
AS the onion grows TO half size or
more, remove thetop soil Immediately
in contact with the bulb, and give 1t
room to enlarge. This last direction
may be omitted, but this is the Der
muda style. When full grown, pull
the onions up and let them lie III the
sun a day or more, and it will absorb
the substance from the top aud be-
come round and plump. Then cut
off the shrivelled top with Il sharp
knife, and pack the onions, dry and
without bruising, in suitable pack
ages, say bushel packages, or a little
more, and ship to Jacksonville, SA
vannah, Charleston, Augusta, or else
where Sell as near hone as possible
for many reasons. New York might
already be in receipt Of Bermuda
shipments, and it will be better to
avoid competition. Keep the onions
for market dry.
The more manure you apply the
earlier the crop, and the larger the
yield. J. WoFFoRD TUCKER

Yard Manure,

Every farmer has the material on
his own farm to enrich it. How shall
eapply thern?s How make his com
post heaps? answer, with his yard
manure, and the soil mixed with it;
and in the room of ashes or lime, to
make it decompose, give me hogs
noses. Writers may talk about their
chemical or mineral agents, but for
me give me hogs. Yes, keep hogs.
Keep them in your manure cellars,
and throw in your coarse materials /;
their noses will sooner decompose a
sod than all the nostroms of the chem
list. Hogs will work better than irish
men, whose trade is To spade and toss
up the earth. Hogs will work seven
days in the week, while you must be
pretty lucky to find a human lahorer
who will serve you faithfully through
six. Ii a farmer has dozen head of
cattle, he may make so cords or 200
loads of excellent manure every year.
From, say the first of July to Sep
TENDER, he must occasionally haul in
other materials. Persons living near
the city may buy manures, but those
living some ten miles away cannot
afford to haul it to their farms. l., for
one, would not want to haul it, for |
make just az good for less than half
what it would cost me in Boston.
Some farmers with 40 head Of cattle,
l am sorry to say, make less manure
than others with hut seven head.
But 1 would not advise any of my
friends to follow the example Of the
farmer with the 40 head. My advice
to all is, keep cattle make your hogs
work-uo labor is cheaper than hog
labor, and none brings he ter re-
turn.-Ma~GchmsettS PIowghman.

THOSE Southern gentlemen who are
criticising President Hayes for going
away from Washington during the yell
low fever epidemic in the South, are
unreasonable. Were the president in
Washington right along he could not
have done more than Secretary Nc
Crary has already done. II there were
laws providing for such emergencies,
and which would become operative by
order of the president, the complaint
would be well grounded. But, as Sec
Rotary McCrary says, "There is no law

HOLD. ENOUGH!''

The LEADER has been receiving
daily, Of late, circulars from manufac-
turers of articles varying from q tooth
pick to a church pipe organ. The list
embraces makers OF pianos, organs,
sewing machines, patent paint, soaps,
cutlery, stove polish, safes, what does
an editor want with a safe?) musical
cabinets, patent medicines, pistols,
rifles, and ''other articles too numerous
to mention" All these worthy parties
want to pdtronf-e. the LEADER, and
win take advertisements from a QUAR-
ter column to two columns in size,
each.-provided, that the publisher
will send them o certain amount Of
cash, as part payment they term 1t.
for their merchandise.
The wonderful philanthropy Of these
gentlemen would bring tears of graft
tude to the most persistent beggar In
Rome. With the only object in view
of supporting the LEADER, one
manufacturer offered a piano, one
whole piano, worth 5000, for an adver.
tisement; and all that that s~elf-sacri-
fcing patriot asked in return was a
two column advertisement and $3.50 in
cash. Such unexampled generosity is
overpowering, and smelling bottles are
an urgent necessity. The list might
be continued right' through, but with
the same sfattering result. Enough
has been said to show in what lofty re-
gard newspapers and publishers are
held by the manufacturing commune
ty. Publishers realize the great bur-
denof honor thus thrust upon them,
and bravely- struggle under the load,
until they have evolved into a round
shouldered race of beings.
