1t IS said that the celebrated German

Inclined to save than TO spend money.
He was at one time quite i'll and sent
for a renowned physician, Dir. Crate,
who was court physician at the time
and whose son became the great ocu-
list. Schleiermacher recovered, and
when fully restored to health he sent
a polite note to DIR. Crate, expressing
his gratitude and Enclosing 4 louis
dor, begging the physician to accept
this small sum as a token of his ap-
probation of the services which had
been rendered him.
The following day he received his
gold pieces again, accompanied by the
following laconic note from the great
physician: 1.-The poor l cure for moth

BARNARD MANURE.

The composition of barnyard manure
in other words, its value as a direct
supplier of plant nutrition = will de-
pend not only upon the relative pro-
portions of solid and liquid excreta
and litter making up the whole, but
also upon certain factors affecting the
two former-frSt, the kind: second. the
food; third, the age; fourth, the condi-
ton and function of the animal pro-
ducing it.
Considering the farm stock, horses.
sows, pigs and sheep, other things be-
ing equal. tie analysis of the fresh SOL
id eXc"eta Of these animals places the
dunGs in the following order of value:
Sheep, PIGS, horses, cows.
Tie urine Of the sleep is seen to be
the most valuable, containing the lar
sest amount of nitrogen and potash.
That of the horse ranks next. with the
cows and pigs following in the order
named. The urine of animals is much
richer in nitro en- and potash than the
solid eXcrements. bat it is practically
destitute of phosphoric acid.
Food is By far the most important
factor in determining tie fertilizing
value of both solid and liquid excreta.
The richer the food in albuminoids, or
flesh formers. tie richer will the ma
nure be in nitrogen. The same is true
as regards phosphoric acid and potash.
AS tie quality and quantity of the
solid food affect the amount and com
position of t,.e eXcrements, so does the
amount of water drunk. The more wa
ter that the Gnimal takes the poorer or
more dilute will be the urine. but the
Inferior quality will be largely COM
pensated for by tie increased quantity
voided
Young and growing animals absorb
much lar"er percentage of tie fertiliz-
ing constituents of their food than do
those that are mature or full grown.
Stated approximately. we may say that
from so to IS per cent of the nitrogen,
phosphoric acid and potash of the food
Of the former will be found in the ma
nure, from 90 to 95 per cent in that of
the latter.
According to the wants or require
ments of the animal so Is the quality
of the resulting manure. The produc-
ton of milk, flesh and wool makes
heavy demand upon the food. so that
the manure of animals manufacturing
these is poorer than similar animals
that are not performing these functions.
Mature animals at rest return prac
tlcally all the fertilizing constituents
Of their food in their eXcrements. Cows
in milk utilize about % per cent of the
plant food elements in their diet, and
their manure is consequently less rich
than that from fattening steers. which
do not retain more than 10 per cent of
such constituents.

The Chesapeake, famous for her en-
counter with the British ship Shan
non in the war of 1912, is still in ex-
istence. When she was captured by
the British she was taken to England
by her captor, Sir Philip Broke, and
some years later her timbers were
sold. The purchaser was miller in
Wiskham, and when he pulled down
his old mill he built new one from
the timbers of the Chesapeake Many
Of these timbers still have the marks
Of the Shannon's grapeshot, and in
some places the shots are still to be
seen deeply imbedded in the pitch pine.

knew that its timbers were being used
