The Manure Htrvcst
In Iho midst ofthe harvest of grain, and
grass, and tubers, wo must not forget the
compost heap, in which vtegarnerand store
tho unsowed crops of a future season, The
saying that "anything that grows in one
summer, will rot before the next," is a safe
guide In collecting vegetable matter for tho
compost heap. When sods, muck and weeds
form a put of the heap, It is not alone tho
material which we are assiduous in collect
ing, and put Into the heap, that constitutes
its whole value. The fermentation induced
by the dune and liquid manure, and the
action ol the lime or ashes added, work up
on the earth, adhering to the roets ol the
weeds, and forming a considerable part of
both sods ami muck, and develop an ad
mirable quality of plant food. Ilenco this
element of the comHst heap, which Is gen
erally over-looked as ttossessing any sjiecial
value, should never be wanting. It has,
moreover, Its own offices to perform, In pro
moling decay, in the formation of humua,
and in preserving, locking up, and holding
on to valuable Ingredients of plant food
Tho compost heap should (.Iwaya be laid
In even layers, and each layer should go
over the entire hcap,lor thus only can 111 al
uniformity be had. We do not mean sccial
p irpose composts, but those made for gin
eral farm crops. It would be well if evt-ry
pirticle of dung, liquid manure, straw, Li
ter, leaves, weeds, etc., could be worked to
gether inlo uniform fine compost, and there
Is really no substantial reason why this
should not be dons. The gardener wot. Id
plead for certain secial composts. It mif.ht
perhaps bo well to mako a special hen ma
nure compost for corn in the hill, and tak-.
laf the general compost as a b' la, to make
one for turnips, by the addition of a large
percentage of bone dust. All this may be
done establish once the rule to compot
everything of manurial value, and we have
In prospect an abundance of larm-inado fer
tilizers at all limes, and for all crops vic
tory over weeds, a good place for dccomtios
able trash of all kinds, a sacred burial
ground fur all minor animals and poultry,
whose precincts need never be Invaded.
There will besides be no stagnating pool in
the barn yard, for all liquids will go lo the
tank, to be pumped over the compost heaps
no nasty, stumpy barn-yard, for every
thing will be gathered forlhe growing com
post heap, and the harvesting of tlie man
ure crop, and ila increase day by day, all
the year round, will bo aource of constant
nleaauro to tnasterund men. American Ag

The Grapevine in August.
Most of the active work of the vineyard It
over, still the vines will need some care.
The laterals may still need pinching, and
late shoots may push where they are not
wanted, and must be broken oil'. Most of tho
troublesome Insects of this season are large,
aud readily noticed, so that the only rein
edy, whether for the large grapevine cate
pillars, or beetles, is picking them by baud.
The chief troubles of the grape-grower this
mouth, are the LenMiopper, incorrectly
callel Thrips, and Mildew. The little in
sect, which in some places rise in clouds as
one passes among the vines, and appears of
a general dingy-white color as it flies, is,
when caught and examined, found to be
handsomely marked with scarlet. It re
mains attached to the leaves, sucking the
juices, In its early life, and It is only when
it nets wings, that its presenco is usually
noticed. The only remedy that has been
suggested lor this Leaf hopper in its winged
