Absorbing Liquid Manure.

Very few have any idea of the amount
furine yoided by cattle and horses. OF
of the quantity of absorbent material
required to hold it. About a year ago
we visited the establishment OF a milk.
man in Massachusetts. who kept herd
of { Tvs which he fed chiefly on cOru
meal aud shorts, with a little hay
Beneath the stable was a cemented
cellar into which all the manure liquid
and solid fell. Enough bedding was
used to keep the cattle clean probably
as much as most farmers use in their
COW stables. The cellar was not only
cemented on the bottom, but up on the
sides. and the way by which the ma
nure was taken out was closed b.,
planks one above another, fitted air
tight. The milkman told us that he
sold this manure 20 market gardener.
and It was taken away in tight carts like
those u,ed by the night soil men IN
cities. This taught US a forcible lesson
10 regard to the saving Of liquid manure.
We are we'll satisfied that in ordinary
uncemented manure cellars, such as
are under our best dairy barns, hut
little of the liquid manure is saved, ex-
cept when large quantities Of dry muck,
or loan, are carted in to absorhents

There is some talk, among the MEM

the question Of superiority OF fire en-
gines by giving them a practical test.
Wchave three engines, the United, the
Vigilant and the Atlantic, and each
claims to he the best OF the three. To
decide this, it is proposed to take them
To Capitol Square and test them. The
same plug, hose and nozzle will be used
and the question finally determined. II
the contest comes Oft next Friday will
probably be the time fixed upon.

We enter to-day upon September, the
ninth month Of the year and the first Of
autumn. To-day is usually considered
the first Of fall, though the sun does not
crnss the line until the 2lst, when sum-
mer is really over. TINS month was the
seventh of the old Roman year, as the
name signifies. that year beginning in
March. as did the legal year OF England
until l752. Like those of the three sue
ree,linr months, its name is unchanged.
The Anrlo-Saxons called it G''StHoHoth,

is still called HsrbS'DoHdi, or harvest
month. As the old rhyme says:

THE TYPE-sTICKERS' RACE.
Two Heats ROwed-A Victory
for the Bows.

The typos race is over and two are
happy and one is Crosse, which seems
right, in accordance with the motto,
"the greatest good to the greatest num-
ber." The weather was fair and the
printers were fresh on Saturday, and
about $3.50 p. NJ. the contestants took
their positions. Will Crosse was to row
one skiff against John Emblem and
Fred Wolfe in another, from
the bridge to the Nail City
boat house, for a purse OF so.
Crosse was confident OF winning; so
were the others. Hugh White was ref
cree, and all were REGISTER type-stick-
ers.
About four o'clock 'time" was called,
and Crosse got. the first take, which
being "phat," enabled him to lead about
two "sticks." In the other boat, each
man pulled an oar, and one becoming
excited, pulled into circle. This was
corrected, however, and striking some
"leaded" copy they rapidly closed the
gap. Spectators on the bank watched
awhile, adjourned for refreshments,
smoked cigar apiece and talked about
walking down the river to get good place
TO watch the finish. BY this time the
boats had sighted the creek, and Crosse
tried to make a short cut over the bar,
while the others went off at a tangent
toward the Island. Observations were
made, the direction taken, and the boys
were pointed in the proper direction,
and BY some chance the boats made out
TO cross the line "even" and threw in
Il. Of
time. The referee declared it draw,
and ordered a new deal.
The boats were hauled back TO the
starting point and again the word was
given. As Mazcppa's horse leaped of
when he found himself free; as the bull
let leaps from the rifle; as the grey
hound darts from the leash-well, that
wasn't the way these oarsmen got oil.
Scarcely. But they started, their dash
ing boats well in hand. Then Crosse
got on his muscle, caught pair OF crabs
and broke a rowlock. He wanted new
boat and Wolf and Emblem stopped
rowing to argue the claim. Finally they
rejected and expectorating upon their
hands, renewed their journey.
In the course OF time, they came to
their iourney'send and fell to counting
their blisters. They haven t finished yet.
Referee White accepted the situation
and awarded them the race. Time
well, the time was-say, Saturday after
noon, August 80.
Crosse is confident he can beat them
and has challenged them to a
repetition of the misery next Satur-
day afternoon for purse OF $40. No
developments until the victors are pro-
nounced convalescent.
