Compost.—Farmers who know the valueof compost, and know how to make it, in-crease their manure pile. In this way hun-dreds of loads are made annually, the mate-rial being gatliered on the premises, such asforest leaves, cornstalks (including theroots), weeds, vines, loam from fence corn-ers, muck from ponds and ditches, occasion-ally a sprinkling of lime through the mass,layers of barnyard manure, and thus buildup oblong squares and let them remain overwinter. 10th Month.
