#BTM, glanto & fwnfrriwU; 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.
