How to make a <*ood llarnyard.
Several things are essential to render a barn
yard a good one. It must be so constructed
that water from any source will not accumu
late in it. It must not be uncomfortably wet
or disagreeably ufuddjfor stock. The surface
must also be firm, so that coarse manure will
not be pressed down into the soft earth, and
thus make hard pitching. These are the main
requisites.
Now, the first thing is to provide for carry
ing off the surplus water that will be liable to
find its way among the manure. Cut a good
ditch entirely around the yard, not less than
80 inches deep, and fill it with tiles if they ctin
be obtained, or with plank, as illustrated on
another page. Stones will be just as good to
drain the soil and carry °ff the water: but the
drains are more liable to be filled up by rats.
This drain will keep dry on each
side of it, and will not carry off the liquid
manure.. Conduct all the water by eare
troughs from the roof of the bam and sheds
inte this underdrain.
The next step is to grade the yard, either
by hauling earth away, leveling off the knolis,
or by drawing in compact earth to fill up the
depressions. The surface of the yard should
always descend gradually from the barn and
sheds. There ought also to be buildings, or
cheap sheds on every side of the yard. Ex*
cavate at the lowest part so that liquid from
from all parts of the yard will descend to that
place, and there sink a sugar hogshead, and
cover it with plank, so that nothing can fall
into it. Then, set a cheap pump (see page
213, July AgriculturUt ,) in this hogshead,
pump up the liquid, and send it in board or
bark troughs among the solid manure in any
part of the yard. This will be a perfect se"
curity against its heating and becoming "fire
fanged."
The next job will be to pave the whole, or a !
portion of it. Stones of various sizes and
forms may be used. Flat stones three or four
feet square are objectionable, for heavy cattle
are liable to slip on large stones so as to in
jure themselves. Were they to slip not more
than two feet, there would be a little danger
of harm. Some parts may be paved with
boulders of a certain size, and then those of
another size may be used in another place.—
Large stones and small ones may be placed
side by side, by excavating a little for the
large ones, so that the surfaces of each will
be of equal hight. Stretch a line across the
yard and lay the top of each row of stones
even with the line. In this way there will be
little or no difficulty in making the surface of
the pavement even. When laying the stones,
the workman needs a trowel to place sand, or
fine gravel beneath thin or small stones, to
raise them np to the line, anda rammer made
of a billet of hard wood with an iron ring,
like that of a beetle, on the bottom of it, to
to drive those stones that are too high, down
even with the line.
After the paving is finished, spread sand,
gravel, or finely-pulverized clay all over the
pavement and work it into the interstices.—-
This will make a barnyard that every good
farmer will be proud of. On many farms
there are loose stones enough lying in the
fieldsjto pave several yards. Where stones
are scarce, the surface mayj be covered with
gravel or clay, or compact earth, instead of
.is cheap, a yard can
be paved with wood, by sawing off logs, five
or six inches long, with a drag saw, and pla
cing them on the end. This would make a
pavement that could not fail to please the
most incorrigible laultfinder or grumbler.—
Hemlock, pine, oak of all kinds, and many
other kinds of wood sawed into paving blocks
and well tarred on the lower ends with coal
tar, wonld last many years, always making a
very smooth and agreeable surface to work on
and not slippery for animals. It would also
hold liquid manure well.
COMPOST HEAPS, Ae.
From Germantown Telegraph.
A few hints just now, may be of use to
some persons who, like myself, believe that
manure is not only worth having, but that it is
worth saving and worth a little trouble in ma
king. Now is the time; winter is coming on,
and most farmers are pretty well through with
their field work, (except fall plowing,) let us
see how much larger the manure heap can
be made this year than it was last, and see how
many more acres we can spread it over than
we did this fall.
Have you got five or ten acrea of Wood
land on your farm ? then gather up now be
fore winter seta in, twenty large loads of
leaves; if you have not time for so many, gat
all you can—the more the better—and spread
them in your barnyard ; they make first-rate
bedding for yonr cattle; they prevent any loss
of liquid or solid manure, and they are of
themselves one of the beat manares yot can
get.
Have you a ditch to clean out—a pond that
is nearly filled with leaves and mud, that has
been collecting in it for years ? See to it at
once, and don't throw the dirt away, or haul
it out to the road to get rid of it, but hoap k
np somewhere near yonr barn, where you can
get at it to turn it, and mix some refuse straw
leaves and a little lime with it, before spring.
There may be some old rotten logs or
stumps lying abont in yonr woods, don't let
them stay there any longer; they will do you
more good if scattered on yonr cultivated
gnoand, than if left where Nature let them
fall
If you think it won't pay, sit down and
count the coat. The leaves cost you nothing,
your team is standing idle in the stable ; your
hired man is like yourself not got much to do this
morning, to be sure, there is a little corn yet
to husk, but it is so damp from the heavy rain
last night that it won't do to get at it yet.
Now, hitch up and go to the woods —you can
get two loads before dinner, which will add
at least one load to yonr manure heap; when
hauled out next spring k will cover at least
nine square rods. Many farmers would give
and do give $1,25 for such a load, and hanl it
two or three miles, and here you caa get it for
nothing and have only halt a mile to haul it.
Now, how many such loads can be made
this fall yet? Let every one find out for him
self.
Did yon ever plow for corn in the fail?
YOB answer no! Well, try an acre or two by
way of experiment this season, and see if the
cat-worms are half as bad on that part of your
field as they will be on the rest, and then see
how much sooner yon can get your corn in,
next spring, than if your plowing had to be
done then. One single week in planting may
save a whole crpp from early frosts the suc

These works will he printed on a greatly im
proved quality of paper, ami while nearly all A
merican Periodicals areeitber advanced in price or
reduced in size—and very generally both, we shall
continue to give faithful copies of all the matter
contained in the original edition*. Hence, our pres
ent prices will be found as cheap, for the amount
of matter furnished, as those of any of the com
peting periodicals in the country.
Compared with the cost of the original editions,
which at the present premium on gold would be
about SIOO a year, our prices (sls) areexcceding
ly low. Add to this the fact that we make our an
nual payments to the British I'uhlisher* for early
sheets and copyright in Uold—slcosting us at
this time nearly $2.50 in currency—and we trust
that in the scale wo have adopted we shall he enti
rely justified by our subscribers and the reading
public.
The interest of these Periodicals to American
readers is rather increased than diminished by the
articles they contain on ourgrcat Civil War, and
though sometimes tinged with prejudice they may
still, considering their great ability and the "differ
ent stand-points from which they are writ ten, be
read and studied with advantage by the people of
this country of every creed and party.
