ROOFING FOR STABLE.
ROOFING FOR STABLE. A thatch of straw or reeds is, in the opinion of most practical men, one of the best, as this sort of roofing maintains an even temperature, and also absorbs the moisture which arises from the horses. No material can be worse than corrugated iron, which attracts the heat in the summer, and is the coldest of all cover- ings in the winter. Where thatch h prohibited a tile roof with straw underneath it may be about the best roof to use. With regard to fresh air and draughts, the greatest possible difference exists between them. Fresh air is essential, but draughts are as prejudicial to their health as to that of any living thing. A horse can stand quite a remarkable amount of cold, and if time is permitted nature will pro- vide him with a coat that is impervious to almost any weather but nothing will resist draughts. Of course, a horse that is kept in a stable and warmly clothed will not carry a coat of this sort, nor is it desirable that he should do so, as he is expected to look smart, but even in the case of such an animal a close, stuffy stable is sure to cause sickness. Hence the importance of a proper and effective system of ventilation.
THE SMALLHOLDER'S CALENDAR…
THE SMALLHOLDER'S CALENDAR FOR NOVEMBER. GARDEN. Flower beds should receive a dressing of manure. Dahlias should be litted and stored away from frost and damp. Alterations in the garden should now be carried out while the weather is fine and the soil fairly dry. Her- 11 baceous plants should be cut out where they have finished flowering. Roses may be trans- planted. Asparagus may ba cut down, and the beds mulched with rotten manure. Keep all dead and decaying leaves pulled off Brussels sprouts and borecole, etc. Earth up leeks if not already done. FRUIT. Plant and prone gooseberries, currants, apples, and fruit trees of all kinds when the weather is favourable. Manure gooseberries and currants, and any fruit trees which have borne good crops. Stored fruit should be looked over, and any decaying ones removed. Trees which have got overgrown with dirt and lichens should be sprayed with the caustic wash. Fork up the ground as soon as the 1 pruning and spraying are completed, taking care not to destroy the surface roots. FRAMES. Bedding plants sue)*, as pelargoniums should be looked over to check any signs of damping of the leaves. Bulbs which have been potted may be stood in the frames till they are to be brought into the house. Seeds of lettuce, radish, and small salading may be sown in cold frames for use in spring, protecting when severe frost threatens. Care will be necessary to prevent damping. POULTRY. The month when winter layers should com- mence work feed geuerously upon two parts barley meal, one middlings, and half a part meal. If the weather is cold add one part maize meal. In afternoon feed barley or wheat. Hatching should commence in order to have a supply of chickens ready early in spring. Feed ducks to encourage eggs, for these are L% very valuable a good ration in two parts bar- ley meal, one middlings, one bran, half a part of maize, and half a part meat. Pen up Christ- I mas turkeys and geese about the tenth of the month, and feed generously. Supply poultry I of all kinds with green food. Provide pro- I tection from cold winds and rain if there is a covered shed anywhere attached to the house, cover the floor with straw, chaff, or I dried leaves, and scatter grain thereamong. DAIRY. Give roots, grain, or mashed meals, or the butter colour will be lighter, and get the cream ripened, and the proper temperature for churn- ing is 56deg. to 63deg. Warm churn before putting cream in, and keep hot water out of the cream, or the quality of the butter will suffer. Bring heifers and young cows into the shed. CATTLE. The abundance of grass is economising the slender supply of good hay. Dairy cows will be turned out during the day, and housed at night. Wait until the frost has gone off the herbage before turning them afield. Horses hard-worked must have more corn allowed them. Bring colts into the team. Tie up cattle for fattening, and where roots are used for this purpose begin with white turnips. I Begin cake and meal gradually, and when animals are used to change of feed increase I quantity given. Sheep will be put on roots, I with a grass run every day. Trim their tails before putting them in the fold, or there will be trouble with covered earth and excreta. Roots are best when picked out of the ground four days in advance. Give pigs a warm bed, and feed with rations of barley-meal and swill. ARABLE. The autumn has been so exceptionally fine and dry that on some lands wheat sowing has been waiting for rain, as wheat does best when put into a damp seed bed. Finish this opera- tion now as speedily as possible. G!ve Plenty of harrowing. Where lays have been broken up it is a good plan to drive a flock of sheep gently over the surface to prevent wireworm. Winter beans may be planted during this week, and a few vetches if required. Mangel storing must be completed, and the clamping of potatoes finished. Aftet sowing is finished stubble ploughing may be begun. If for root crops, plough deeply. Cart out manure if land is dry enough. Clear up water meadows, remove stock to dry pastures, repair embank- ments and bridges, clear out trains and water- courses, trim edges. BEES. Bees should be allowed to remain undis- turbed. Secure the roofs of hives from high winds with the rope and brick method. This consists of driving in a stake at one side of the hive, to which stake fasten a cord. Carry this
VALUE OF LIQUID MANURE.
VALUE OF LIQUID MANURE. With respect to the value of the urine of living animals from man downwards (writes T.C.S. in the I Agricultural Gazette') it is extraordinary that proof should not be patent to all observers without experimental research. I can confidently assert from fifty years of practice that the urine of all species of farm stock is one of the most valuable manures known to me, and I may add that I was of that opinion before the opportunity of storing some urine came within my reach. In 1856 there were on this farm tyings for eighteen cows, stabling for eight horses, and styes for (say) half a score pigs. No regard was paid to their liquid excrement, all of which was a nuisance unless absorbed by litter. When, half a century ago, additional accommo- dation for live stock was begun, regard to the storing of liquid manure entered into the plan. By progressive steps the system of sanitary drains and the storing in underground tanks of all urine made by in-lying animals was made operative, and, roughly speaking, the applica- tion of all urine direct to grass land is always made before the tanks run over. Wiih this result. Some dozen acres of meadow land are, in my judgment, kept at the highest procurable level of production by liquid manure only. SOME PRACTICAL EXPERIENCES. Let me say at once that the far too common abandonment of liquid manure as a fertiliser is due to the admission of water into the storage tanks. No liquid other than that voided by farm stock should be admitted into the storage tanks, with the exception of the water occa- sionally necessary to flush the drains. Of course I may be told that I am giving no detailed account ot the result of experiments. My answer is: "It goes without saying that urine is a manure the value of which is shown every day in the luxuriance of grass growing upon the patch of land upon which urine has been voided." For forty years a ten-acre meadow has re- received no other dressing than that distri- buted from a liquid manure cart. Although the soil and subsoil of this meadow are only of moderate quality, I have in each successive year had an enormous production from an average application of two dressings from the liquid manure cart. Let me set down the history of the present year of this meadow, which, from the end of December until Lady- day is kept free of live stock. During these dead three months the liquid manure has been over all the field once and a second time over, say, one-third of it. On reference to my milk book, I find that on the night of April 18th last some forty cows in milk lay out in it. This was twenty-four hours sooner than in April, 1909. The meadow is grazed down to the roots as a rule up to the second week in May, and the milk produced from it during these four weeks is very full in yield and extraordinary rich in butter-fat. The crop of hay of this season was cut and carried during the fine weather which preceded the break in July. The aftermath has been enormous in bulk, and, as upual, its consump- tion by the cows is preferable to any other grazing on the farm. No WASTE. The storage in the tanks, made underground with cemented walls of brick, holds from two to five weeks' production of urine, and is never allowed to run to waste, although exceptionally there is only pasture land available to receive it. When applied to pasture land all cattle graze with avidity the rich herbage which comes in thick sward in less than a month. The stock in trade necessary is a tank fitted with a chain pump for each block of buildings, which require a separate storage. The liquid

SAVE THE MANURE.
SAVE THE MANURE. The average farmer is quite wasteful with his stable manure he certainly does not take good care of it. There is not a single section of the country that does not present examples which show manure as being wasted in exposed yards, or piled undar eaves, or as being washed away, and so poorly preserved that the greater part of the nitrogen therein held is released by fermentation and sent out into the air.
CALF REARING.
CALF REARING. Where much calf rearing goes on scour some- times occurs among the calves. which is often caused by their being allowed too much new milk. It is far better to give them three quarts a day from the bucket and entice them to eat a little hay and cake or oatmeal. For a mouth after that period, when they have become used to the dry food, they will do well on skim milk, increasing the bay and cake gradually. With this treatment scour will seldom attack the calves, but should it break out, they should be taken off the new milk and supplied with some calf food made into porridge, and given with separated or skim milk. As soon as a calf is observed ailing give one scruple of salicylic acid dissolved iu 1 oz. of rectified spirit of wine in a wineglassful 2 of linseed oil. This should be followed by a dessertspoonful of solution of chlorinated soda and one teaspoonful of lauda- num mixed together and given in a teacupful of starch or flour gruel from every three to twelve hours. One or two teaspoonfuls of brandy may be occasionally added to this if the patient becomes very prostrate. When the scour ceases give cod-liver oil twice daily

SOW FEEDING.
SOW FEEDING. If the sows receive nothing but maize or barley meal, which are starchy, much of the good which might be done by mangels or tur- nips is lost. The starchy roots require to be fed with flesh-forming material, not fat-making foods, and where the diet is entirely of a starchy nature the sows have nothing to build up the frames of their young, nor to renew the loss of muscle. Green food for sows is strongly recommended, especially clover or pulse crops. The roadside sow which finds the greater part of its living on grass is nearly always prolific, I and no sows do better than when they have an unlimited rnn of tares, particularly when the tares are getting corny. While recognising that milk is not only a valuable food and an admirable addition to a well-constructed dietary, it cannot be too stroDgly urged that owing to the large amount of nitrogenous matter it contains care is needed in feeding it, especially to young pigs. It is too often forgotten that separated or skim milk has lost certain of its properties. Nature arranges that milk shall be an all round food, and the ex- traction of the cream makes it a one-sided one. Unless some equivalent be supplied, although a large quantity of skim milk is given, the animal does not get enough fat-forming and heat-giving substance to keep it in health. Well-soaked pollards and barley meal make the safest additional foods to be given to pigs when I they can first feed, and for a few weeks after if skim milk is also given.

THE DISCONTENTED ENGLISH-WOMAN. An Interesting Press Discussion- Nervous Irritation the Common Cause. A prominent London newspaper has recently published interesting letters on thiq subject. In the course of the discussion, a Japanese profpsRor indicated the Women's Suffrage movement as evidence of the general discontent of English women. There is no doubt that hundreds of women do live in a state of perpetual discontent. In matters concerning drese, in the home life, even in search of pleasure, thfre can be heard the continual cry of dissatisfied womanhood. Unfortunately, the true cause of discontent is often overlooke(-Nervous Irritability is the real source. An overstrained and weakenpd nervous system displays itself in a hundred different wnys.

IA POULTRY STORY.
A POULTRY STORY. By EDWARD BROWN, F.I.S., Hon. Secretary, National Poultry Organisation Society. To continue in one groove or rut is seldom profitable to the producer, though his loss may be somebody else's gain. That applies to mar- keting as much as any other sphere of rural life. Variation of outlet is desirable, else we are tied hand- and foot. The fact that a farmer's father and grandfather sold from the same bench, in the same market, to the same men, ought not, as is often the case, lead him to adhere to the same system. Sometime ago I visited a farm in an eastern county. It was the first week in June. My object was to advocate co-operative marketing, by which is meant the adoption of different and more progressive methods and the finding of new outlets. The farmer's wife showed a fine lot of about 80 birds just ready to kill as spring chickens, bus stated that she could not get more than 4s. 6d. per couple for them in the local market town, The price was totally inadequate, so I gave her the names of one or two firms, advising that half a dozen should be killed and forwarded as a sample. The advice was taken, and as a result a return of 6s. Gd. per couple was made, which, after payment of carriage and commission, left 6s. 2d. per couple, an advance of lOd. per bird. The following week when this good lady went to market she was asked about chickens, but replied that she had found a better way of selling, and told the above story, with the result that the local buyer paid for those she had to sell at the rate of 6s. 2d. per couple. This true incident, one of many such, sug- gests a conundrum Had the local buyer been making an unfair profit previously, or did he pay more in this case than the chickens were worth ?

There must be a reason far beyond that arising from mere advertisement. Publicity is essential in order to bring any article to the notice of the world; but it by no means ensures success, as the flippant sometimes imagine. Success, solid and sustained, is achieved by merit alone. The position occupied by Beecharn's Pills is a striking illus- tration of this truth.

VALUE OF LIQUID MANURE.
manure cart is a barrel of sufficient size to make a fair load for one horse, and the dis- tribution in the field of the urine is made equable by starting the horse coincidently with the opening of the outlet into the trough behind the barrel, In order to secure a level top-dressing the wheel of the liquid manure oart should run side by side with the preceding line of wheel with an interval of six inches. AN ABSURD SUGGESTION. It is absurd to assert that it is necessary to restrict the use of liquid manure to showery weather. Our lesson lies before our eyes whenever we regard live stock out in the pasture upon which their urine is voided. We need no mark to indicate its local application. The local growth of grass gives you such mark, and it is one of high commendation.
