We succeeded in this way: Every few

that they might have dry bed, with
the use of the hay knife, we worked q
hole into and under the rick When
one became dusty and contaminated
with odors, we destroyed it and made

came out to feed we would crawl int

when coming out of them, and the

KeEkfNG up FERTILITY.
aow to Grow Crops and at the Same
Time Keep Up the Farm.


1t is comparatively easy matter to
keep up the fertility of the soil when
manure can be secured conveniently.
3ut so far western farmers are not so
'itnated that this can be done, and i.
5 a serious question as to the best plan
II management to grow crops contin-
aally and at the same time keep up the
,arm.
The farmer who is close to a large
market where a good portion of the
crops can be hauled in and sold, and
manure be secured at a nominal price
20 haul back, has a very decided adj
vantage over the farmer who is so sit
1ated that all the manure secured must
be made on the farm. 1t is easy
enough to say, "keepa sufficient num-
Der of stock to consume all the various
products grown on the farm, make,
save and apply all the manure" This
IS good advice as far as it goes, but the
average farmer finds by experience
that this, even with the most careful
management, will afford a very in
adequate supply. A man with a small
farm can secure better supply in pro-
portion to the advantages than the one
On large farm because he has more
time to gather up and work in material
that the more extensive farmer is
obliged to let 60 The larger the farm
The more the work of hauling out and
applying is increased
Commencing at the start with a good,
rich soil, it requires good management
to keep up the fertility; and when, as
is so generally the case, the soil has
run down to a more or less extent by
continued cropping, it is difficult to
continue to grow crops and at the
same time build up the fertility. 1t
cannot be done altogether by applying
manure, and less so when the manure
must all be made on the farm.
Seeding down to grass is only
change and does not build up the soil
If the hay is cut off. If green crops
can be grown and plowed under this
will help, and in many cases it can be
done to a good advantage OF course,
where regular system of rotation is
carried out, the products grown are all
fed out to stock on the farm, pur-
chasing and using bran, middlings and
oil meal in connection with the feed
grown on the farm Much better re-
suits can be obtained than where no
particular pains are taken in this re-
spect. Yet even with the best of man
agement, it is difficult to keep up or
build up the fertility.
AS with much other farm work. it is
easier to tell how to do than to do, and
especially where there is such a diff
ference in the conditions under which
the work must be done. Prairie

Mental Dissipation.

II know literary man." says a phi
losophic friend, who works from twelve
to eighteen hours a day. He complains
when he has time--that he hasn't
half time enough to do what he would
like to do. That man is study. He is
the best read man / KNOWS living

doesn't know enough to come to dinner.
l presume such men are necessary to
the world. 1t is curious thing that
the man who works hard with his
brains conceives more work and is in
spired with the ambition to accomplish
it; whereas the man who hasn't any
thing particularly to do never originates
anything and finds it task to do any
thing. These qualities often exist in
the same man. Now, in my own case,
when | am much driven, / think of
lots of things I'd like to do if / had
time. ! make a memorandum of them
and put them aside, working little on
this or that between times just as
soon as am relieved from mental pres

of dissipation. The more you have of
