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. 7 ' “N (.SO.V'S toill make you proud of your hair” -The particular colored people of tlte //-**'**'*'. \ United States use f/ '' * v j***r)k '\ Nelson’s f ■mi Hair Dressing 1 'ijr jW i For more tlmn Cos years NcLon’s has V\ v /, been sold end recommended by drug Yf ?■: Sk.’jjf ,'J stores everywhere.
