Tho compost Heap.


The problem of utilizing all waste
from kitchen, table, etc, has been sat
isfactorily solved by me without the
aid Of the garbage man. look upon
every bone parlngs from potatoes, ap-
pies and all vegetables and fruits as
too precious to be carted off by him.
Each year after my planting is done
I start a refuse pile. having used up
the accumulation Of the previous year
at this time. The spot selected for
this refuse heap 81 quite near my gar
den and about a hundred feet from the
house. / first sprinkle some air slaked
lime on the spot, after which al scraps
and parings Of every kind are thrown
there. being covered each time with q
shOvelful or two OF earth. All dead
leaves and grass raked from the lawn
find their way to this heap. I sprinkle
often during the hot weather with air
slaked lime. which aids decomposition.
On wash days this heap Is treated to a
couple OF pailfuls Of good strong soap
suds. thus cnriching it still more. The
scrapings from the chicken coop or a
wheeibarrow Of manure from the sta
bic is a grand addition, as is also some
leaf mold
This heap Is the better for being
tossed over occasionally during the
summer and when spring comes around
again is O delight to the gardener.
Bones and old shoes burned up and
the ashes thrown on this heap will add
greatly to its fertilizing qualities.
If kept sprlnkled with lime and Gov
prcd with soil there need not be any

consider my compost heap equal to one
load Of manure and therefore save at
