SAVING MANURE
Ever keeping in mind the larger
crop yields we are hoping to make
next year, we should keep our lots
and stables well littered. Ample
bedding means the saving of a
great deal of manure that would
otherwise he lost. Our fields need
it 100 badly to allow it to go to
w aste. I >o not keep it to the extent
of permitting it to burn or fire
fang. If is better to clean out the
stalls often and re-bed. Haul the
manure directly to the fields and
spread on any growing crop, clov
er, wheat, oats rye or hay grasses.
If you have none of these, spread
on ihe land and run a disk ahr
rmv over it at once. Make and
save all the manure you possibly
can. To do ibis will he a far bet
ter policy than depending wholly
on commercial fertilizers. Com
mercial fertilizers are all right,
hut they do better where a good
application of manure lias hern
made. '
REPAIRING THE BUILDINGS.
Again I wish to call attention to
the importance of repairing all
buildings so as to stop leaks and
keep out the winter cold, and es
pecially see to it that all chimneys
and stove fines are made safe.
Most of our fires come from de
tective (lues. We cannot empha
size too strongly the importance of
attending to this matter at once.
Tomorrow may he too late. But
few things excite the sympathy of
people more than to see the father
mother and children, perhaps
scantily clad, walking around and
looking at the smoldering embers
where only a few hours before
stood their home. As you love
your home, use every fire preven
tion method that you can.
