BARNYARO MANURE.
Its Importance and Pecuniary Value on
the Farm.

Its Importance and Pecuniary Value on
the Farm.
Barnyard manure is the most impor-
tant manurial resource OF the farm and
should be carefully saved and used: 1t
represents fertility drawn from the soil
and must be returned to it IL produc-
tiveness is to be maintained.
This manure contains all the fertiliz-
ing elements required by plants in
forms that insure plentiful crops and
permanent fertility to the soil. The
urine is the most valuable portion, but
il is best used in connection with the
solid dung, one thus correcting the de-
ficicncies of the other.
The amount and value of the manure
produced by different farm animals is
put at the following figures in the
latest farmers bulletin, the computa-
tions being made on the basis of 1000
pounds of live weight: Sheep, 34.1
pounds OF manure gre per pGayY. day 6l M8rtR n &: 81
cents; pigs, $40 pounds, worth 1867
cents; cows, 74l pounds. worth cents.
and horses, 4S.S pounds. worth 7.6
cents, basing calculations of value on
market prices of commercial fertilizers,
which probably gives results much too
high Making liberal allowances for
these and other considerations, Prof
Roberts estimates that the value of the
manure produced on a small farm car
rying horses. 20 cows, so sheep and 10
pi.rs during the seven winter months
amounts to about $50 Poultry man
ure is the most highly esteemed as n
fertilizer; after which come respective
ly sheep, pigs, horses and cows.-N. Y.

says Youths Companion, that the
pulsations of the great earthquake in

delicate instruments contrived for the
purpose of registering any slight shak-
ing of the earth's crust. In like man

Of the places where pulsations were

the velocity with which the earthquake

The average speed was about two
