LEAVES STORED FOR WINTER
They Are Eaoiiy and Quickly Gath. cred in Various Ways-5ia Pieces
 of Cloth Excellent.
By M. A. CoVERDELLN


 If farmers only understood the many uses to which leaves could be put, more of them would be stored.
 Some may think it takes too much time and labor, but they are easily and quickly gathered in various ways.
 One good plan is to have cheap bar rels handy, f.l them U'ith leaves, aud set them away where rain or snow will not reach :h:ia.
 Another n.t ,hUG by which the stC-- age of leaves may be accomplished is that of using common gunny or bur lap sacks. TLcSe, also, may be stored away without emptying the sacks, and they will be in convenient shape to use few at q time during the winter.
 If one has only a small number of sacks, the leaves may be carried and emptied from the sacks into some out building not in use; but where one desires to store q considerable quan- tity, we find that bed-sheets, or simi- lar pieces of cloth. are excellent for the purpose.
 Simply spread them on the ground; rake up the leaves with a common garden-rake and pile them on the sheet; catch hold of each of the four corners and draw them together.
 A large quantity can be carried in this manner, and when it is desired to empty the sheet, let go of one corner and allow the leaves to roll out.

VALUE OF BARNARD MANURE
Price Fixed at Ss to s9 Per Ton for Use on Farm Crops by Ohio Ex-
 pertinent Station.

Can barnyard manure be worth $G to $9 ton for use on farm crops? At present prices for commercial fertil- izers, it has had this value in tests con- ducted by the Ohio agricultural ex- pertinent station.
 Eight tons of manure re-enforced with 320 pounds of acid phosphate has been as effective in increasing crop yields as the same quantity of acid phosphate mixed with 4S0 pounds of nitrate of soda and 260 pounds of muriate of potash, in tests covering 20 years at the experiment station at Wooster.
 Nitrate of soda now costs nearly 4 cents a pound, and muriate of potash 20 cents. At such prices the eight tons of manure has had a replacement val ue of at least $70.
 Every pound of manure saved and used with the utmost economy will re- lieve the fertilizer situation this year and put crop yields on a higher level
