want to let our manure get well rotted
before we apply it to the land. The
place to rot the manure is in the soil.

the surface the soluble parts wash inn
mediately into the land, and the loss
is smaller than in any way the manure
can be treated, far less than pilinr in
the barnyard, either under cover or
put. The evaporation from manure

water, while the evaporation from

When times are hard and money

There is no better food for a preg-

little oil meal added daily.
The most important element in
the soil is water; without it there
can be no more plant growth in soils
otherwise most fertile than if seeds
were planted in iron filings. To pre-
serve soil moisture, then, is the chief
object of cultivation.

this clay into a garden. Grass Mats
were formedand large shrubbery beds

good coat OF manurewas placed on the
surface and left there. Last summer
was the hottest and dryest ever known
here, but it was pleasant to see how
tnings grew and fiourished in that
clay, which was merely the subsoil
pied three or four feet deep.
This spring the soil in these beds
works as mellow as the traditional
ash heap, and the bloom of the roses
and shrubbery of all kinds is simply
amazing, being fully twice as great as
with the same kinds of plants set in
natural soil elsewhere. L use all ma

In making fine compost for green

spend time piling and turning a lot of
sarth, litter and droppings, and mag

The silliest of all ways to handle
