that il a dairyman wishes to insure a
clean stable and comfort for his cat
tie in winter We know of no better
way to do 80 than to bed down his
stock with black muck from the
swamps and bitches. 1t mixes well
with the manure. and makes one of
the most valuable composts. Besides
its intrinsic value, cattle bedded
down once a week with it would be
all that IS required. 1t would save
labor in cleaning the stables, which
ordinarily is done daily. and would
leave tho cattle in much cleaner
and healthier condition where the
ammonia Is absorbed than when left
neglected to wallow i'm their own ex-
cretions. a few loads of dry muck
placed under shelter. convenient TO
the cow stables, would add greatly to
the manure heap and general thrift
of the farm. This is the experience

should do 50 wherever practicable.
