How Winter Rhubarb as Produced.
The production of rhubarb in Win-
ter has become of considerable value
among gardeners. It is easy to do
if certain methods are followed. If
one is making a perreh,nent business
of rhubarb forcing, 'it. is necessaty,
each year, to set Out a new bed as
plants once forced are of n� further
value. In the spring large roots
should be dug, split in one bud sec-
tions and replaced in rich moist
ground. During the growing season
they are kept cultivated and free
from weeds. In the fall they are
covered with manure. Next spring a
second bed is planted as before. That
fell a large" part of the first bed is
taken up leavii* stiffident to replant
another bed tile next spring. The
roots are takeneupi the last thing in
the fall before the bard, freezing
weather comes and are placed in, piles
in a died where they can easily be
got at during the winter, but will
remain frozen. About Dec. 1st take
in a sufficient number of roots, place
these bud side up on the floor of a
warm cellar—about 68 to 70 degrees
—and cover with an inch. of sand. Be
sure to fill in all interspaces.' Keep
• this sand moist. About a week later
the buds will begin to swell, Mid in
from four to six weeks, depending
upon the heat of the room, the cool-
er the slower growth starts — you -
should have rhubarb ready for mar-
ket. After these roots are exhausted
throw theta away 'and put in „more.
If a constant supply is required make
a new bed every two or three weeks This is an old question about
during the winter. Be sure to keep whieh coneiderable difference of.

will be prepared by the soil bacteria -
for use by the growing crops.
The main objections to putting
fresh Manure on the land are --first,
eit is not always convenient to do so;
aecond, weed. seeds may be numerous
in the fresh manure, consequently a
heavy weed crop may be expected,
third, its action is not so rapid as
In the case of well -rotted manure,
but it is active over a longer period.
Where manure is to be stored in
piles or pits until it is ripened, or.un-
til it is convenient -to use, then the
greatest care is necessary to prevent
•losses of plant food materials from it.
In the first place the bottom of the
pile or pit should be inepervions to
water so that leachings from the pile
will not occult Second, it is well to "1
have a layer of old well -rotted ma-
nure at the bottom. Third, the ma -
',sure as it is piled up should be well
compacted or tramped down. to pre-
vent excess of air from getting into
it. Fourth, it shoulds be kept moist
but not wet. These precautions apply
more particularly to .horse manure,
which is locate an.d coniparatively dry.
Unless -this is kept well packed and
moist, loss by fire ranging is certain.
This is an oxidationrprocess, or fer-
mentation, set going by certain spe-
cies of bacteria in the manure. If
cow or pig Manure is available it
should be mixed with the horse ma-
nure in the pile, is these are very
wet and compact and will give a good
consistency to the whole mass. *e-
nure so kept will haver the minimills
of loss and the plant food will be
ripened by the various species of bac-
teria, in it and thus made ready for
immediate use.,by the growing crops
when it is added to the soil.
The main things to be remembered
in storing manure are,' first, to pre-
vent leaching; second, to keep it well
packed down and nioist.—Proa li.

In order to lay well, they should be
fed ail they will eat, particularly of
ground grains arid green foods, and
should not be overcrowded. About
twenty -fire to thirty-five pullets is
plenty for a pen twelve feet square;
in fact, in many cases twenty-five

that some careful feeders ate able to

they are best fC to dry cows, fatten-
