Save the House sIons.

Because no absorbing material Is at
hand to be employed as an absorbent
Of house slops they need not 60 TO
waste. A good sound economy requires
that all that possesses manurial value
should either be husbanded for future
use or else applied where IL at once be-
comes available ~ plant food. 1t is
questionable whether ii Is advisable 10
plow into the soil manure that Is not
TO be made available Dy the immediate
planting of the crop. II the generation
of ammonia by the decomposition Of
decayed turf-land causes its loss II no
crop is growing, would not tho same
thing occur in the decomposition of
manure? Or. again, descending water
carries with il the fcrtilizing salts that
are dissolved and so are going deeper
and deeper into the soil when plowed
under, for which reason il is better to
spread manure on cultivated land at
rest upon or, at least, very near the
surface.
An application Of slops that become
at onco available is valuable ether to
the growing crops IN summer, or upon
the surface of the garden or moving
land in winter. 1t /, surprising what
an invigorating effect results from
throwing the slops of the wash-tub
upon plants in the summer season. An
ordinary hower-gardon may beskept in
the most thrifty condition by this means
alone; and so, too, may the products OF
the vegetable garden be made to flour
ish by a weekly watering from the
wajh-tub.
A farmer, who grows q quantity OF
onions every year, has patch Of
ground near his house which he devotes
to onion raising, and It Is almost en-.
tirely fertilized by the throwing upon il
during The winter season the slops and
urine from the chambers Instances OF
this kind serve an important purpose in
showing the value of products of the
house that are pretty generally thrown
away as Of no value and so useless.
But let farmers try an eSpermen and
they will be satisfied Of the value hidden
there. --Connec;icm Cor. Gcrnantouh

There is frequently much damage
done to pastures and meadows by put
ting stock upon them too early. All the
meadows should be rolled as soon as
the frost is out of the ground to press

moving machine. - Chicago Journal.
BE careful not to ovcr-feed any OF
your farm animals. Founder is dilli-

your stock fast occasionally than 10
cram them at any time. -2r0y Times.
