and then pumped out AID applied to
the manure pile or In diluted form to
the land itself All that Is necessary
is to provide sufficient bedding to
absorb the liquids, and then haul the
manure directly to the land, putting
1t on the pastures where possible.
To show the value Of manure, both
solid and liquid, from the different
feeds ordinarily used, we refer to the
report Of the experiments recently con-
Quoted by the Maine station, the value
being determined by the price OF the
corresponding artificial fertilizers on
the market.
According to this report the ma
nurial value Of Q ton Of hay is $40;
of spring wheat, $11.S0; of winter
wheat bran, $3.50; and Of cotton seed
meal, $3.50. Inasmuch as perhaps
half of this value Is in the liquids, the
necessity for thoroughly bedding the
live stock and of getting the manure
directly to the land will be apparent.
The time will come in the Western
States, as in England, when men will
think they are doing well when they
feed cattle solely for the manure
When that time comes they will know
how to look after the liquid portions
and get both solids and liquids out to
the land as soon as possible.

Save the LIQUID Manure.

Most of the readers are aware that
very much of the fertilizing elements
of the manure is carried in the liquid
portions, and hence every effort should
be made to save this as well as the
solids. In order to do this it Is not
necessary to have a cistern and
cement cutters through which the
liquids can be carried into the cistern

the stand is rather hard to establish.
The finest blue grass field l ever had

Paul and Thomas.

Harry's aunt. who lived In the

gray parrot who made himself very
much at home, and considered him

Harry would sometimes lift the
parrot high in the air upon one fin

upon one side and talk way down in
his throat.
Harry was playing thus with Paul
one day when some one called him.
He set Paul upon the floor and ran
out of the room to see what was
wanted
In few minutes in walked
Thomas, the big black house cat.
Thomas had had his eye on Paul
for long time, and when he came
upon him thus. walking about alone
upon the floor. he said TO himself
that here was his chance.
He skunk around behind a chair
and began to creep slowly toward
the parrot. Paul was preening his
red tail and seemed to be paying no
attention.
Thomas suddenly gathered him
self and then sprang for the bird
with claws spread out.
Paul had really been watching
Thomas game all the time. and Just
as the eat made his spring Paul flew
mp into the air, The result was that
when he came down he landed right
upon Thomas black head.
