We often come across people who
have been unfortunate in life. They
have lost property. They have lost
standing in the community. They have
host their earthly loves. Some of them
have loves. Some of them have lost
even faith and hope Many of them
have lost what would have made them
happy, 10y their owa fsolishness. Their
troubles all run back To wrong decis-
ion to one fatal hour In that hour
they did " hat they should not have
done; aud all their Il oubles are traceable
to that one event. These people write

LIQUID MANURE.

One of the most successful gardeners
we know used liquid manure largely
He has large tub, a discarded whale
oil cask or sugar hogshead will do,
holding several barrels, sunk partly in
the earth, near the middle of his vege-
table garden. He has cheap trough,
made by mailing two four-iuch strips
together in the shape ola V, TO conduct
the water from his sink spout into the
tub, whenever it is needed. 1t is not
far from the well, and extra water is
run from the pump into the tub when
ever it is. Into this tub all the slops
from the chambers are cmptied during
the summer. Another line of cheap
troughs conducts the liquid manure
from the tub to any desired part of the
garden. With long handled dipper,
he stands at the tub and waters the
growing vegetables aud fruit trees, as
their wants demand. He always has
fine fruits and vegetables. When a
house stands several feet higher than
the garden, the tub or vat for holding
the liquid manure can be kept wholly
above ground, and the water be drawn
of by aplug at the bottom Of the vat.
This will save the labor of dipping.
The result Of using liqnid MANURE upon
growing vegetables are quite astonish-
ing. If the garden is large, and the
wastes of the house are not sufficient,
il is easy to Increase its quantity by
placing few pounds of guano in the
vat, and adding water from the well
or cistern. The water should have the
benefit of one day S sun, and be applied
just ut evening, or very early in the
morning,
