ashes from soft wood have not enough
value to make It worth while to bother

Is'lng mixed Hire«' parts sharp sand to one of cement. The alley running
throughout th«' center of tin« building Is six feet wide, with a crowned floor
one-half huh higher in the center. Io insure Its being kept perfectly dry.
Til«' floors of the pi ns are given a fall of two inches from the alley to the
outer doors.
The partitions are constructed <jf on«' and a quarter inch boards cut Into
three foot lengths. These are placed In an upright position. the bottom ends
resting on a two-by-four and th«' tops capped with similar material. The loft

Ralaing Rhubarb.
Rhubarb requires a deep and very
fertile soil. The great secret of suc­
cess in raising it is high manuring. It
is a gross feeder, and requires a lib­
era! application of man ir- every year.
A grower whose small patch produces
rhubarb of enormous size explains his
success from his practice of throwing
soapsuds over the ground on washing
days. He had sold $3o worth from a
patch of two and one-lia If rods In s
