STORE MANURE FOR GARDENS.
Rest Practice is to Place Fertilizer in
Obscure Corner-Spade and
Turn Frequently.

A common practice is to manure the
garden every year, late in the fall or
before planting in the spring, no fur
Their attention being given. This prac-
tice, however, is not the best.
The manure for the garden should
be kept in large box with lid, or so
screened that flies cannot enter it.
Manure heaps are natural breeding
places of these pests and if they are
allowed to remain near the house, un-
covered, will prove a great nuisance.
A good plan is to use very close
wire screen nailed to frame with
hinges for the top. The manure should
be spaded often on the top so that the
water from the clouds or the sprink-
ling pot may penetrate to all portions
of it.
If kept in box a spout should be
placed in one corner, at the bottom, so
that the water may drain into sunken
barrel
This will supply liquid manure
which can be used at all seasons when
vegetables and flowers are growing
The manure in the box should be
worked over once or twice a month,
working the bottom to the top SO that
the entire heap may rot
Manure may be kept in this manner
if the boxes are placed at the farthest
point in the garden from the house,
and if surrounded with vines their
presence will never be noticed from
the dwelling.

WATCH THE HORSES TEETH.
Very Often Elongated Molars Prevent
Animal From Masticating Its
Food in Proper Manner.

If your horse shows difficulty in
eating or loses flesh without apparent
cause, it is time to examine the teeth
Very often elongated teeth prevent a
horse from properly masticating its
food, thereby rendering it impossible
to obtain much benefit from it.
liberated teeth also are a source Of
great trouble and prevent horse from
eating well. Sometimes broken teeth
cut the sides of the horses mouth and
form painful sores, which, of course,
interfere with mastication.
1t is good plan to examine he
teeth of all horses two or three times
a year and in the case of broken or
elongated teeth, treat them with a file
If the teeth of a valuable animal are
badly affeced it should be treated by
veterinary surgeon.
