Barn-Yard Economy.

A dark stream, often of golden color,
always Of golden value, flows to waste
from many an American barn yard. This
liquid fertility often enters the side ditch
Of the farm lane, sometimes of the high
way, and empties into a brook, which re-
moves it beyond the reach of plants that
would greatly profit by it. Mice may
gnaw hole into the granary and daily
abstract a small quantity Of grain, or the
skunks may reduce the profits of the
poultry yards, but these leaks are small
in comparison with that from the poorly
constructed and ILL., kept barn yard. The
most valuable part of manure is that
which is very soluble, and unless it is re-
tanned by some absorbent, or kept from
the drenching rains, it will be quickly out
OF reach. Manure is a manufactured
product, and the success of all farm oper-
ations in the older States, depends upon
the quantity and quality of this product.
Other things being equal, the farmer who
comes out in the spring with the largest
amount of the best quality of manure,
will be the one who finds farming pays

the best. A barn-yard, whether on a
side hill or on a level, with all the rains
free to fall upon the manure heap, should
be so arranged as to lose none of the
drainage. Side-hill barn yards are com
mon, because the barns thus located fur
nish a convenient cellar. A barrier Of
earth on the lower side of the yard can
be quickly thrown up with team and
road -scraper, which will catch and hold
the drenchings of the yard above, and
the coarse, newly made manure will alb
sorb the liquid and be benefited by it. 1t
