contains about 81 pounds Of Potash,
80 lbs Phosphoric Acid and IS lbs. OF
Nitrogen. Il is highly nilrosenous, AS
the analyses show, and therefore should
be used with substances rich in starch
or like materials, which contain little
or no nitrogen. Two pounds Of cotton
seed meal, is enough to feed oally to a
cow or horse; smaller animals, should
nave proporlionally less. Fed in the
quantities given, there is no danger Of

But in some cases the practice is
convenient. Twenty loads a day
may be hauled and dropped in small
heaps. thus releasing the team from a
waste Of time in waiting while the
manure is spread; and as soon as a
certain quantity is dropped, spare
band may be employed to do the
spreading while the team is at work
covering. From the foregoing it will
be gathered that this work is esSen-
italy one for early spring. Il may be
done when the ground is too wet to
be plowed, or while it is still crusted
with frost. Better still, it may be
doue by means Of sleds on the last
snow with much economy Of labor, and
an onerous labor is out OF the way be-
fore the hurry Of blowing and sowing
comes.

To KILL LIcE.--Col. Curtis has bit
it. He tells the n. Y. Tribune as fol-
lows: we have tried all sorts Of mix
lures to kill lice on animals and at last
have hit on what we think is best: Melt
hogs lard, or any hot grease, and in 1t
dissolve salt one-third Of the bulk OF
the greese; take as much grease as viii
be required to smear the animal all
over and into the mixture pour kero-
sene oil and stir it up. Two gllls OF the
kerosene would be sufficient Tor a COW
of ordinary size. One application
completely cured the most stubborn
case of lice on an old hog. 1t leaves
the skin smooth and clean, removing
the scurf aud healing the irritation
caused by the parasites. II Is also ex
cellent for gals and sores.

Sheep Washing.

1t Is a question Ill the minus Vi
many wool-growers as to the Prac-
teal utility Of washing the faccc
while it is still upon the sheep's
back. A deduction-usually ore
thirds made by the wOol-buyers
from the weight of all unwashed
wool, and in most cases this is no.
far from the loss which the fleece
would sustain in the process OF
washing, fit is done with the aver
age amount of thoroughness. New
t6eless, the practice OF washing, the
sheep is very general, and if there
is no return in money tor the labor
of washing, there is the satisfaction
of having.c leaner wool to work
with when shearing.
The common method Of Washing
is to select some favorable place in
brook where the water is about 3
feet dcep,the bottom hard and gray,
ely, and the current moderate, and
then build pen of rails sufficient
to hold a large flock, and provided
with a narrow opening towards the
stream. Into this pen the sheep
are driven through an opening, tenn
porarily made for the purpose, at
the rear. One man, perhaps aid,
ed by boy, tends the flock and
passes the sheep to the washers
who are standing in the stream.
The sheep should have been previ-
ously tagged and freed from all large
soiled clots. The washing should
not be done until the water has be-
come so warm that the sheep may
not be chilled and injured. Spe-
cial care must be taken with old or
sickly sheep, and ewes that are still
with lamb. An exposure Of the
sheep to warm rain the day pre-
vious to the washing is an advan-
tage, as it softens and loosens the
dit and renders the washing easier
and more thorough. AS the sheep
are washed they should pass out
upon a clean, grassy slope that rls-
es gradually from the stream, other
wise the water laden animals may
fall and soil their Aeeces. Aftel
washing, if the weather should sud
denly turn cooler, the flock should
be provided with shelter, to prevent
their taking cold, as they would b'
very likely to do. From this time
of washing to that of shearing,. two
weeks or so, the sheep should b.
kept in pasture that is tree from
any bare ground, overhanging banks
or steep side-hllls, that the WOO
may be kept clean.
A second method of washing
which is employed when the stream
is small but somewhat rapid, is t.
arrange a spout for the passage o
the water, and hold the sheep un
der the end-the water flowing up
on the animal. In this way tn
washer does not 60 into the stream
and if provided with rubber boot
and apron, may keep himself com
paratively dry. The washing b,
this method is very thorough a
there is a stream of clear water con
stantly flowing into and thrOulg
the wool, and carrying off the i'm
puri!ies as they are removed iror

A ton of manure having 1000
pounds of water in it, which is about
25 cubic feet it follows that it will
dissolve or absorb about II, 800 cubic
feet, of ammonia gas before it is satu@
rated. Besides this, manure contains
much sulphuric acid in combinations
from which 1t will escape to combine
with ammonia and in this way large
portion of the ammonia formed in the
decomposition OF the manure will be
changed to sulphAte Of ammonia which
is a stable compound.

perpetua.ed as we now nnd them. and
that the various breeders in the Western
States, who have united in bringing
them to their present state Of perfec-
ton, may well be satisfied with the
great good to the public which they have
accomplished.
Shenandoah herald. [volume] (Woodstock, Va.) 1865-1974, 1880-05-05

Therefore the fear that ammonia
may be lost is hardly to be entertain-
ed so long as the manure is mois':
day of warm wind and sunshine will
certainly do mischief By eyaporating
the moisture, and this is the only risk
OF loss to be feared, 1t may be per
fectly safe to draw out and sprca d
manure in cold or showery weather at
this season, but the work should not
be permitted to @ so far aheaI but
that it may be covered with the plow
if the necessity occurs.

What Others Say.

The UsE or MANURE IN THE SPRING.
Many person hesitate to draw out
their manure and spread it until they
are ready to turn it under supposing
some waste to occur by exposure to

this suspected waste really takes place,

The MONDAY Hour on the
Farm.

The human system taken in all It's
parts is a very wonderful self-govern-
ing, and at the same time. dependent
machine. In order to keep this ma
chine in good running order-and we
are using the term machine in the
highest sense-it must have food and
rest. All experiments that have been
tried 10 test the results of tho absence
of food upon the animal system, have
ended. ii carried to their fullest extent,
in the same manner with that so often
quoted experiment 10 horse keeping,
in which. as related by the owner:
"Just as had got him SO be would
get along on one straw day,he died.
The system will assert its demands for
food in the severe pangs OF hunger,
and the lack of rest will make itself
known in involuntary sleep Out OF
these necessities OF the case, there has
grown the common sense custom Of
taking a incoming" of an hour or so
in the middle of the day, in which the
system is replenished with food, and
the nerves and muscles refreshed by a
period of inactivity. a Spanish,
American town is in mid day hours as
quiet as one in New England on the
Sabbath. One from the North in'
visiting such countries is apt to look
upon the people as indolent, but ne
soon falls in with the custom, and
