was hanging on to strap in front OF
him. and Just for little thing like
that, Mayme shook him.

BARNYARD MANURE
OF GREAT VALUE
Worth Is Greatly Reduced When

Remember that the constituents of
animal excrement are in the condition
of greatest value as manure at the
time when they leave the animals;
after fixing with litter and piled in
the barnyard their value is greatly re-
duced.
During the fermentation of the ma

stable and barnyard the constituents
enter into new combination; the am
