Rones as n Fertilizer.

There is no question as to the fact that
bones properly treated and properly applied
are one of the most valuable and one of the
most economical fertilizers with the farmer,
who cannot produce all the manure he re-
quires from the stock of his farm, can apply
to his crops. But there has always been a
great diversity of opinion as to the method
of treatment by which the best results can
be obtained. A correspondent of the Count,
ry Gentleman gives as the result of his ex-
perience that the bast way to convert bones
into plant food is to take ground bone in the
proportion of ton to a quarter of cord to
q good friable soil place the two substances
the soil at the bottom, in alternate Layers in
some convenient place under cover, the
same quantity of each in every layer. In
4S hours it will be too hot to hold your
hand in. Let it remain for a week or ten
days undisturbed, then throw it over. In a
day or two it will heat again unless the pre-,
vious fermentation has exhausted all the
moisture Of the soil and bone. Continue
the operation by turning over until all the
moisture is thus exhausted and it does moi
ferment any more, and you have all the
equivalents of ton of superphosphate al
half the cost of ton of that article, which
can be packed in barrels and will keep fol
years without deterioration and which when
applied to the crops will! have better eiiec
than any of the superphosphates in the
market made by the usual method of de
composing the bone with oil of ytriol
There is great deal of common sense in tn,
plan suggested above, and it has, besides
the merit of being in accord with the bes
established theories OF the scientists. ass

FARMERS COLUMN.
HOW % save Llquld Manure.

An inquiry has come to hand in regard to
the value of liquid manure-the urine OF
domestic animals-and the simplest mode Of
Eavingit. when it is recollected that it is
to the urine in it, that bnrnyard manure
chiefly owes its fertilizing properties both as
regards nitrogen and salts, the value OF
liquid excrementory matter will be appre-
oiated Some Of the most eminent authori-
ties deny that there is any available nitro
gen in horse manure. In 100 pounds Of
barnyard manure when it has been proper
erly cared for as has been found by analy-
sis, there are 65 pounds Of water. Ofthe re-
naming 35 pounds rs are inert carbonaceous
matter, leaving but 10 per cent. of inorganic
substances an 0.6d of nitrogen as true fer
tiliIing matters. This, it must be borne in
mind, is based upon good manure, and not
such as has been thrown from stables and
subjected to sun and rain which drive out
and leach out about everything which will
cause plant to grow, leaying little or moth
ing that is soluble. But urine, rotted with
water contains large quantity of nitrogen,
and many valuable salts also, already
dissolved and suitable at once for plant
food. The urine of all animals is very
much alike in chemical constituents.
For preserving the liquid, various meth
ods are employed The floors Of the stalls
in which the animals stand are laid with a
r,,vs ,f4'
into a small gutter Immediately in the rear
Of the stall, and is conveyed to some recep-
tacle provided for it under, or very near the
barn. The following description of such a
tank was recently given by Prof g. c. Cald
we'll: "First of all, suitable water tight
covered receptacle must be provided, which
should be deep rather than shallow, and
have capacity of 10 to y gallons for every
adult animal in the stalls, on the supposi-
ton that it will be emptied once or twice
week. This tank may consist simply of
hogshead sunk in the ground; but it will be
cheaper in the long run If built of stone,
laid in mixture ofcoal tar, pitch and sand
liquefed by heat, or of brick first warmed
and soaked in tar and then laid in the same
manner. The tank should havea a banking
of clay. A supply of water should be pro-
vided in addition TO that coming from the
stalls, which may be turned into the tank at
pleasure; with this manure can be diluted
before it is applied, and the manure pile can
be kept moist, for it will be poor policy while
making liquid manure to let the solid man
ure burn up by too rapid fermentation"
The uria which exists in urine constitutes
its chief value, and when the latter begins
TO ferment, the former changes into carbon
ate of ammonia, and escapes rapidly into the
air, unless means to prevent II are employed.
The tank should be kept covered, and sui
phuric acid, plaster, or peat, can be mixed
with it, TO prevent the ammonia from pass
ing off, which will be detected by its pun
gent odor When it is desired to apply 10

4 Novel Lighf.

Take an oblong phial ofthe whitest and
clearest glass and put into it piece ofphos-
phorus about the size Of pea. Pour some
olive oil heated to the boiling point, upon
the phosphorus fill the phial about one
third full, and cork it tightly. To use this
novel light, remove the cork, allow the air
TO enter the phial and then recork it. The
empty space in the phial will become lum-
inous, and the light obtained will be equal
TO that of a lamp. When the light grows
dim its power can be increased by takin G
out the cork and allowing fresh supply OF
air TO enter the phial. In winter it is some
times necessary to heat the phial between
the hands in order to increase the fuidity
ofthe oil. The apparatus thus prepared may
be used for six months.

sitting on rail fence by the side OF a coun-
try road. He held his chm in his hand,
his eyes were fixed, and his whole appear
ance was that of q man in deep thought.
He was book agent for we saw at his
feet the leather case which carried his
treasures. Occasionally he glanced upward
and gave sigh and then relapsed into the
same perplexed thought. We passed by,
but no confident smile passed over his face,
he did not leap down to meet us and kindly
take us into his confidence in regard to the
value of his book, but let us pass without
even raising his eyes. We were greatly
surprised and puzzled al his unaccountable

that he must have met his equal i'm produ-
