SAVING THE MANURE.
Different Methods of Performing This
Important Work.

There is as great "a difference in the
way two men will save manure on
farm as in the way they will care for
their stock or raise their crops. One
farmer will recognize the value of the
manure and Will add straw and all
sorts OF refuse, working them in and in
cooperating them together so as to make
All excellent article Such a method
was Systematically carried out on
farm where the writer visited this sum-
1ner. Nothing was wasted either inside
the house or out. Whatever was not of
value for pigs or chickens was set aside
for the compost heap. Itdid not matter
how trifing the amount, it always
found its way there during the course
of the day. AS result the owner is
steadily bringing up rundown farm at
the yearly expenditure of very small
sum for commercial fertilizers, while
his next-door neighbor, with originally
better land, larger means and more
extended experience, is rapidly becom-
ing bankrupt.
The change in their circumstances is
being brought about by their different
methods of handling the manure ques
ton. The old farmer is going on in the
old rut he got into 20 years ago, when
his land was virgin and the prices of
farm products high. Labor was high
too, then, and he economical by nov
ing his animals about, feeding here and
there in odd corners in the woods or
along the road, wherever it happened
to be convenient. or where it would
save the trouble of cleaning up after
wards, for he regarded the manure as
simply Il waste product.
These habits cling to him still to far
greater extent than he is aware of.
He thinks that he saves his manure, or
at least "all that is worth the bother"
but fully one-half of it is still lost and
the remainder is thrown out, to be
leached by every passing storm, while
an insuff;cicncy of bedding causes the
almost total loss of the liquid manure.

The spectral soldier was at his side
like a stalking reproach. The mans
ewes were still fixed in a stare into the
unknown. His gray, appalling face
had attracted attention in the crowd,
and men, slowing to his dreary pace,
were walking with him. They were
discussing his plight, questioning him
and giving him advice. In logged

The shadows Of his face were deep

There could be seen a certain stiffness
in the movements of his body, as if he
were taking infinite care not to arouse
the passions of his wounds. As he
went on he seemed always looking for
a place, like one who goes to choose a
grave.
Something in the gesture of the man
as he waved the bloody and plying
soldiers away made the youth start as
if bitten. He yelled in horror. Tot

hand upon the mans arm. As the lat

He became aware that the furnace

Great brown clouds had f1oated to the
still heights of air before him. The
noise, too, was approaching. The

AS he rounded hillo.k he perceived
that the roadway was now a crying

commands, imprecations Fear was

firmly on as if propelled. Since the

ceased to display much interest. They
occupied themselves again in dragging
their tragedies toward the rear.
Suddenly, as the two friends marched
on, the tall soldier seemed to be over
come by terror. His face turned to a
semblance of gray paste. He clutched
the youths arm and looked all about
him, as if dreading to be overheard.
Then he began to speak in a shaking
whisper:
